Auschwitz Survivor Explains How She Escaped the Gas Chambers

You must be very naive to believe anyone who was brought in the gas chamber to get killed there did escape and simply went back to the camp.

[@wzukr]

The crematoriums were fenced and guarded and you had to slip through the camp fence to get back to the block. The next problem is that the prisoner numbers of the murdered were recorded in the office/registrar office and the prisoner therefore no longer existed. This also applies to this would-be fugitive. EVERYONE would have noticed that she was suddenly back.

Mrs. Levy, thank you for sharing your story, and I am so proud for you that you finally became able to tell it. To release the pain and not hide your past, and to become a Witness is a wonderful thing. Many years ago when my daughter was in junior high school, a teacher told her class that a Holocaust survivor was to speak in a city near us, and we went to hear her. She was one of the people who worked in Schindler's factory and said that she only got in because she was "tall for my age" and her papers could be falsified to be within the age limit. It hit me at that moment that MY daughter was "tall for her age," and if such a horrible time had fallen in our country, the same could be true for her. What happens to one of us happens to all of us, and we must never, never forget.

I knew 3 camp survivors. One was mom to my close friend. I'll never forget seeing her prisoner # tatooed on her forearm. It's unreal what those victims went thru, and now it appears to be happening again. Persecution is not the way to bring peace to this sick planet😢

I have never met Rachel, and I would be honored and grateful if I did. However, early in my nursing career (Retired now), I once took care of a woman named Rose Zar, who was another survivor. I immediately recognized her name as I own a copy of her book, In the Mouth of the Wolf. She autographed my copy and for the short time I had her in my care, she became one of those patients who made my career my calling. Years later I took care of an elderly gentleman who I noticed his numbered, faded arm tatoo within moments of meeting of him. Such humble people after what they had been through truely inspired me in my profession and my life. God Bless all the survivors and the souls of all those who were lost from this world forever.😢

Talking to school kids....they are and they were. An austrian survivor talked to us in the 90s when I was a kid. He was as old as Mrs Levy is today, so he was an adult back then already and he was an old man when he met us. He was strongly built and well spoken, but he cried like a child in front of 30 school kids, when he told us his story. The horrors in those camps they never left any of them. I talked to Germans living close to the camps at the time, who have met and cared for the surviving and freed jewish people, they cried too. Adult man. Every single time. They told me how people died while overeating, since the were already halfway starved. Their bodies weren't able to manage the amount of food. They told us how their bodies were already having necrosis from halfway of dying. It was the greatest horror they have ever seen and they had to spend the rest of their lives knowing that their votes and silence was part of the reason for it. Only sociopaths with a definite lack of empathy are deniers.

We really need to spread a message of compassion - having a philosphy of anti anything is wrong and opens the door to the de - humanization of people and horrors then can be perpetrated without any conscious.

Bless Rachel Levy, and keep her safe and comforted by her blessings ❤

[@julisavettiere9019]

Rachel - I am honored to hear your story. Is there any way to hear more of it?

[@katjaheim2985]

[@paulineallene2710]

This is why History has to be Taught In Schools!!! Because History Repeats Itself if Not Taught

[@lemurianchick]

We will have TRUE history! A lot of history is BEE ESS or a lot of half-truths. Think about JFK and MLK's assassinations, for instance.

[@MegaJazzyjess]

She is so brave. ❤ and hugs to all survivors and those who didn't make it.

[@madeleineniesten4089]

Good for KC3 to be there. The Dutch King William and Queen Maxima and Princess of Orange Amalia were there as well.

[@RhonaMartin-j4t]

Peace be with you for ever and always Rachel ❤️

[@ewan8127]

We must never forget!

[@danpeters7850]

I totally agree we must never ever forgot these poor innocent people truly disgusting for a human race to put though these just because for their religion this should never be forgotten and should allways be remembered not just to the survivors but for the millions that lost their life's and I truly belive there was a lot more that was undocumented my heart goes out to them god bless all their souls hope they are at peace ❤❤❤

[@vaughnmojado8637]

I’ll saddens me to hear her pain. I have a good friend that his father was in a work camp. It sorta freaks me out that if his father wasn’t able bodied that my friend would not have existed. There are tons of what ifs. But if she and her friend haven’t done what they did, many wouldn’t have been around to hear her. It is truly terrifying and heartbreaking. Bless her so very much. I wish I could hug her too.

[@canadasweetie]

Thank you for your bravery in telling your personal story of a dark time in your life most will never comprehend let alone endure

[@BrianEdward-n1z]

Your heartfelt gratitude truly shines through. It takes immense courage to share such deeply personal and painful experiences, and it's important that we honor and appreciate their bravery. Their stories help us remember the past, understand the present, and strive for a better future.

[@dianecameron137]

I dont even know how people can do this I have no words what went wrong in the minds of those that did or do this

[@katieroscoe1415]

I feel the same it’s unbelievable

[@jennifermarie3158]

Don't forget about all of the regular people who voted the fascists into power. One of the problems about how we learn history as that people are too quick to oversimplify the atrocities of history as the fault of specific evil people, but in reality, the wheel of history is more controlled by what every day people, the masses, are willing to stand for and fall for. Everything from the holocaust to the civiil rights movements can be attributed to what everyday people fell for or stood for.

Thank you Rachael. NEVER FORGET!!!!

[@jennyleishman9617]

My friend was there and also stood in the line,when she came before the guard he asked her if she could sew ( she said yes ) but really she couldn’t,so she went to the right,those who went to the left went to the Gas Chamber…She had the stamp number on her arm….❤

[@jennyleishman9617]

My friend also lost her family and she never discussed it with her own family,the incredible thing was she became a Christian and joined a house group I was in, we went round Churches and Old people’s homes were she gave her testimony of how she survived the death camp,it took a lot out of her physically and mentally that she would be exhausted just telling her story…she was a Dutch Jewess …❤

[@DotheImpossible-n5t]

I've always wondered how one survives the unsurvivable, the unimaginable.

[@cprime4097]

Words cannot convey the level of sadness I feel for those who witnessed the atrocities of the holocaust. Thank you for being brave enough to share your story with us all. Much love to you and your family.

[@BrianEdward-n1z]

Your heartfelt words truly resonate. The immense sorrow and empathy we feel for those who endured the horrors of the Holocaust are beyond measure. Their bravery in sharing their stories is a powerful testament to the resilience of the human spirit and a crucial reminder of the importance of remembering and honoring their experiences.

[@pennypothoneypot634]

Like "not get angry" saying . Respect.

[@BrianEdward-n1z]

It's wonderful to hear that Rachel's wise words and calm demeanor resonate with you. Respect and composure are such valuable qualities, especially in challenging situations. It sounds like Rachel's influence has left a lasting positive impact.

Thank you!❤

[@robynw6307]

What an amazingly strong woman. Her mind is still sharp, and she does not look anything like her age, even though she has been through so much horror.

[@callmec0c0]

And our world is repeating this in front of our eyes.

God bless this amazing woman

[@OLThomas-y9j]

I got my wife of 62 yrs to look at a story like this maybe 40 yrs ago and she started crying and never again would she watch . My wife was so kind , she was like a little girl in her heart . But, when she prayed , I knew God would answer her . I miss her , it's been over a yr when she went home , strange, but for me it seems like it was yesterday ! I bet she talked to God about WHY these cruel things have to happen ...she was like that , u know !

[@jebsmoak7505]

I will never forget what happened let us all remember ❤

[@mothersgauri4137]

Thank you. These stories are more important than ever. America is about to make the same mistake. I hope people wake up.
