In 1944, Nina Weilova and her mother were deported to Theresienstadt, later to Auschwitz. One day, she found herself standing before SS doctor Josef Mengele. Nina escaped the gas chamber only by chance. She didn't want to give birth to children of her own. "No one should ever point at my child and say, 'You're a Jew!'" To this day, the Holocaust survivor suffers from nightmares.
