Postcard form sent by nurse in Auschwitz Birkenau KL to her husband who was imprissoned in POW Stalag XB Sandbostel in Lazarett.There is a touching story with this female doctor:Hania Wroblewska, a seven-year-old prisoner from Warsaw, born on October 20, 1938, was also in Poręba. She was deprived of her freedom along with her mother and grandmother during the Warsaw Uprising. Her mother and grandmother were sent to the Majdanek camp, and Hania and her minor brother, under the care of a woman they met by chance, ended up in Oświęcim. The boy was placed in the men's camp, the girl and her guardian were sent to Brzezinka. When the woman died, Hania was looked after by her fellow inmates: doctor Irena Białowa and Maria Kaczorowska, Janina Komenda and Helena Włodarska************IMPORTANT!
