    Mala Kacenberg

    Mala Kacenberg (nee Szorer) was born in Tarnogrod, Poland in 1927. As World War II broke out, she found herself having to fend for herself at the tender age of twelve. Surviving by her wits, courage, and the help of a guardian angel (her cat Malach), she was the sole survivor of her family. After the war, she immigrated to London with other Jewish refugees, where she raised a large beautiful family, living long enough to be blessed with many grandchildren.

      Such a heart rending and redeeming story all at the same time. Mama was an amazing girl and woman. I love that she had a cat (whose name meant angel) who was with her during her horrible experiences. There was so much evil during WWII, the Holocaust, and after. It is inspiring to read true stories of those who were able to keep going.
