As a child, I was raised in a Jewish family living in an adamantly Catholic neighborhood. We were taught to enjoy the season as a holiday for the children of my Dad’s patients. Some of these patients became dear friends , giving us small toys that we put in stockings hung from our fireplace. At that time I did not know that a decade or so earlier, my Dad had entered the Buchenwald camp giving care to the children in Kinderblock.
Read about my brother’s efforts to destroy my father’s heritage as the US medic who first entered the camp.
