l remember going out into the garden
and just lying on the lawn.
1:35:04
l didn´t want to be with anybody.
1:35:07
lt was such a shock.
1:35:12
And suddenIy the future,
which we aIways painted...
1:35:16
...wasn´t there. There was no future.
There was just an emptiness.
1:35:25
At the time l was liberated, a month later...
1:35:28
...l would have been 20...
1:35:30
...and l weighed 58 pounds...
1:35:35
...and that´s after
eight concentration camps.
1:35:45
Many times l thought about it:
1:35:47
What would have happened if my father...
1:35:50
...wouldn´t have pulled me out?
1:35:54
I wouId have never mentioned
it to my father.
1:35:57
You know, "´Why did you do that?"´
1:36:01
I think I wouId have done him very wrong.
1:36:04
And I can fuIIy understand,
being a mother...
1:36:08
...what it wouId mean if this is...
1:36:11
...what I wouId have had to go through
with my chiId, God forbid.
1:36:16
My main concern was always:
1:36:19
Let me be strong and let me try...
1:36:22
...to make it. l made it that far.
1:36:24
l want to make it to the end.
1:36:27
Regardless of what the end was.
1:36:32
Survival is an accident.
1:36:35
You cannot ask a soldier
who comes out of battle:
1:36:38
´´Why were your comrades,
left and right, killed...
1:36:41
´´...and you survived?´´ You have
no explanation for that. lt´s an accident.
1:36:47
At the moment of liberation...
1:36:49
...we were very happy,
but on the other hand...
1:36:52
...really very sad, because l realized...
1:36:55
...that I was one of the Iast
who had survived.
1:36:58
AII the others who had gone with me
to Auschwitz or had been taken...
