    Eva Schloss, words defeat me at your moving ,heartbreaking Testimony. You truly are a wonderful
    Person, who survived against all odds.Bless You.🌺
  • This was a very clear testimony of Eva’s experiences. She has an inner strength which shines through.
  • So touching to see how she's still able to smile and restrain her tears after all these sufferings. Great lessons we got from these peoples. But 21 thumbs down who didn't liked make me speechless. 21 amongst 231is 10%.... 10% peoples who are potentially ready to act as an SS ?
    It's frightening. I do realise how important these testimony are for the young generation. They are sensitive and I strongly hope they will be loaded through these testimony to assume this responsibility to change deeply human mentality for their generation.

    I can't imagine living in that kind of fear and uncertainy every day. Can you imagine even feeling the beds to see if they are warm? These people weren't criminals but the Nazis were so determined to find them. Just horrible.

    So much admiration for this wonderfull woman and the calm and structured way she tells us her story. It is inspiring to see how much gratitude she has for and in life, in spite of all she has been through. Thank you so much for talking and keeping the "millenials" informed about the atrocities that you and so many others have had to go through. This should never happen to anybody ever again and I will make sure I do everything within my power to make sure of that and make the world a peacefull place <3

    What a lovely lady. It must have been extremely difficult to try to explain everything. Thank you so much for sharing.Dignified lady.
  • What a wonderful testimony... Thank you for sharing.... What a classy and brave family. We should strive to be so brave and clever!
  • @deedenuese9904
    Thank you Eva for your testimony. The strength to survive astounds me. You and your family are beautiful.
  • What an amazing testimonial. Listening to the story was very moving and put much of the atrocity into a more human context. I am amazed at having never seen anything like this in school.

    56:40 They almost got caught if it wasn't for them getting the hiding place ready that night must have been so frightening to know how close came to being killed. Wonder how many dutch police kept their jobs rounding up people after the war.

    I’ve watched so many of these, but it really bothers me about the spelling stuff

    Only part way through but how neat, that her father, usually the businessman, painted such expressive scenes, showed so much talent. I suppose she wasn't able to keep his work, though.
