She recalls Hungarian occupation; her father's and three brothers' conscription into a forced labor battalion; traveling from Solotvyno to Munkács (Mukacheve) to arrange her father's release; traveling to Košice and Uz︠h︡horod to arrange one brother's release; learning her other two brothers had been killed; ghettoization; help from the town's mayor obtaining food for the ghetto; deportation with her parents and two brothers to Auschwitz in 1944; separation from her family (she never saw her mother again); transfer to another camp; slave labor; a death march in January 1945 to several camps, including Theresienstadt and Buchenwald; help from their Wehrmacht guards; German civilians refusing them food when they learned they were Jewish; transfer to Bergen-Belsen; liberation in April 1945; hospitalization; traveling to Prague; assistance from the Joint; traveling to Budapest; reunion with two brothers; moving to Sighet; traveling with her future husband to Timișoara and Prague; moving to Bamberg displaced persons camp with Beriḥah's help; and attending an ORT school.
