    It's an amazing story - it's inspirational in a way. That while the human race shows it's ugliest side love can prevail and innocence be protected.

    Wow thanks for sharing I have always had an interest in the Holocaust after doing so much study on the book Elli and Schindlers list at high school in VCE. Such a horrific time in history that will never be forgotten, such a miracle to read that some good things did happen like this amazing baby.

    Dementia is a weird illness/disease in the elderly but what hardly ever goes is the long term memory .... So I believe that what this older person is remembering is very real and possibly that story is hers !

    Wow! I hope this is the story Sophia told you... would be marvelous to know that the baby she remembered survived.

    I expected this to be a graphic birth story, but holy moley it was distressing! I've read a far bit on the holocaust but I still wasn't aware of some of those details how how women and children were treated. What a powerful story- thank you so much for sharing it.

    I myself am of a hungarian jew background, first one born in Australia my father was born in a refugee camp and spent the first 4 years of his life in it. My grandmother a WW2 survivor was sent to jail after being caught trying to leave the country to save her children and her pregnant self, 2nd time lucky though! I am very lucky to be here! What got me most in that article was the fact she had to leave her new born little innocent child in the barracks all day while she worked! I cannot imagine the fear that poor woman would have felt all day wondering if her baby would still be there at night. The poor little thing must have been so hungry might just go hug my little boys again.
