The ghetto was being built by the Nazis. Between Krakow and Zakopane, my father spots a house in the province. Rabka is the name of the settlement. We wanted not to go to the ghetto, thus this occurred. From the villa we resided in, the SS and the Gestapo stole everything. They took us along as well. At that time, I, twenty years old, object and thus I was taken under medical experimentation.
You have not heard or read before what I am about to write you. Medical experiments were conducted on me and a Jewish American watchmaker with USA passport. Belonging to the commander of the SS Obersturmfuehrer Rosenbaum, SS German Shepherd dogs with a special poison on their teeth had to chase us.
We had to run. They then looked at our blood, the wounds. A doctor tore the skin of my legs and looked at it. I managed to flee some time later. First to a peasant in a village; later on, among friends in Krakow. My broken legs began to heal.
This experiment (the dog bite and the poison) split my whole left foot and over the years I developed wounds and cancer. I was operated upon in the cancer institute and treated in Gliwice, Poland, during August 1962 and November 1962. Shot in the summer of 1942 under SS Obersturmfuehrer Rosenbaum, my good parents were buried in the mass grave in Rabka.
