I love Doris' story. And starting with "Had I lived" throws a poignant cast over the whole piece. Yet, the story is enhanced by the first person POV. You're such a thoughtful writer.
Thank you Jen. This is beautifully written with so many facts woven in. Your research and your connection to your family brings Doris and her story come alive for me. It is heartbreaking.
WOW! It is amazing to hear a story from someone who can remember so many of the details. The appearance of Adele Krebs is some kind of "sign". I was surprised to read Oppenheimer as related. Are you related to Amy in some way? Thank you for taking the time and effort to collect these stories.

Thank you Jen. I felt your families love for each. As well as their search for beauty amongst the unimaginable horrors.
