Thank you for this AMA. My grandparents are both survivors. Grandfather was from Warsaw and liberated at Auschwitz. Grandmother was luckily hid by a German family in a sub-basement along with her parents and sister. She suffered many gunshot wounds while running. My grandfather sadly past away 12 years ago but I was always very proud of what he made of himself knowing where he came from.

That said here is my question for you, from my 86 year old grandmother: "Is he single?"

I forgot to mention something important i think pertains to my Grandmas story. A few years ago she returned to thank the descendants of the family that rescued her. She didn't get the heartwarming welcoming she thought she would. Instead the remaining family members hated her for putting their family at such an extreme risk. They wouldn't even meet with her. It depressed her that such a mentality could be taken, as opposed to them being proud of their families courage and heroism. It's sad that hate can be born from such a loving action.
