Courtesy of Dr. V comes this link to a heart-wrenching letter written by a woman, Vilma Grünwald, in a concentration camp during the Holocaust. The letter is to her husband Kurt, from whom she has been separated. The couple have two sons; Vilma is with the couple's eldest son John; Kurt is elsewhere with younger son Misa (later called Frank). John has been directed to the gas chambers for execution because he walks with a limp. Vilma, unable to part from her son, elects to join him, but she first writes a letter to her husband to say one final goodbye. The letter she writes is... well, it's very hard to read. Click the above link and get the whole story.
