A young Polish Catholic woman and forged identity papers helped a family of six and two of their friends escape an almost certain annihilation. Her sacrifices and caring are told against the backdrop of the war years when it was a day-to-day struggle just to find food, coal, and warm clothing. The woman, a complete stranger, made the difference between life and death. This personal memoir shows that love, mutual trust, and a strong personal identity contributed to survival and sanity under the most horrific conditions. It is a tale of love and courage, and the nurturing of them under the most dangerous circumstances, and coming out victorious.
