I am fascinated with WWII / The Holocaust

Polish Catholic midwife Stanisława Leszczyńska delivered 3,000 babies at the Auschwitz concentration camp during the Holocaust in occupied Poland.

@breezyboo Stanisława is an official candidate for canonization by the Catholic Church.

@helenS She is one of many unsung heroes of that war. She was truly a godsend to those women who were undoubtedly petrified about what was happening. I cannot even imagine the horror. It sickens me to the core.

@Stereoguy I have often wondered the same thing. Tragic.
