She escaped with her parents, her younger brother and younger sister (my mom) to Russia. After death of parents and brother the two sisters made their way to find Shoshe, stopping to work on the way from time to time. After the war the two sisters returned to Poland to Szczeczin (Shchechin - I guess you know better how to write it). Hudes had already a man she loved and then married - Benjamin Izraelewicz.
