Upon her arrival at Auschwitz, Helga Weiss was immediately confronted with the unimaginable horrors that would come to define her darkest days. Stripped of her possessions, her dignity, and her identity, Helga, like so many others, was reduced to a mere number. The brutal conditions at Auschwitz were beyond anything she had previously experienced in Terezín. The air was thick with fear and despair, permeated by the ever-present scent of death from the crematoria. The forced labor was grueling and relentless. Helga was assigned to backbreaking tasks that tested the limits of her physical and mental endurance. Hunger gnawed at her constantly; the meager rations were hardly enough to sustain life, and starvation became a relentless companion. This chronic malnutrition left her weak and vulnerable to disease, a danger amplified by the camp's unhygienic conditions. Illness and infections ran rampant, claiming the lives of many who, like Helga, were already teetering on the edge of survival. The dehumanizing treatment at the hands of the SS guards and the capos added another layer of torment.

“At that time, it was decided that Terezín was already full and that a new ghetto would be built somewhere. It would be the same way as in Terezín. The first two transports of men set up this new ghetto. We always tried to believe it somehow. Thus the first two transports of men left, allegedly for some place in Germany, to Königstein or somewhere there. For the third transport, women were allowed to apply voluntarily. My mom wanted to apply at that time. Daddy told her, 'No, please, don’t.' He did not fully believe it either. 'You have to stay here,' meaning because of Helga. Because of me. For they had promised these men that their families would be protected. That if they went, their families would not go anywhere.
