From Malka & Edek Galinski Escape attempt from Auschwitz–Birkenau

A postcard written by Mala, dated the 25 October 1943 read:

“My dear sister, why don’t you write me? You know that every couple of lines from you will renew my courage to face life. Where are our dear parents, why don’t they correspond? What about the dear children? Thinking of it will drive me mad”

Mala’s fears were justified- her parents and her three nephews, aged 3,5 and 6 had been murdered in the gas chambers of Auschwitz.
