TEREZIN was a concentration camp 30 miles north of Prague in the Czech Republic during the World War II. It was originally a holiday resort reserved for Czech nobility. Terezín is contained within the walls of the famed fortress Theresienstadt, which was created by Emperor Joseph II of Austria in the late 18th century and named in honor of his mother, Empress Maria Theresa.

By 1940 Nazi Germany had assigned the Gestapo to turn Terezín into a Jewish ghetto and concentration camp. It held primarily Jews from Czechoslovakia, as well as tens of thousands of Jews deported chiefly from Germany and Austria, as well as hundreds from the Netherlands and Denmark. More than 150,000 Jews were sent there, including 15,000 children, and held there for months or years, before being sent by rail transports to their deaths at Treblinka and Auschwitz extermination camps in occupied Poland, as well as to smaller camps elsewhere. Less than 150 children survived.

Following the announcement of the closure of my pod diaspora I moved my account here

There were ups and downs on the health front.

On the financial side, I've had some dips, notably with various unforeseen events.

As far as the animals are concerned, all is well, and my new residents have integrated well with an old one. This one had just lost his brother. I'm talking about guinea pigs, of course, and my shelter.

My husband (Shoshin) is in stockings at this time of year, so I'm letting him breathe.

A sweet, little flower day today. Only attending to four battles.
Never underestimate the importance of allies. Treat them well, and be there for them. Unfortunately, people will betray you. Caution is always necessary.
