The Nazis caught her family after several years of hiding. Trudi and members of her family were sent to a death camp. She was literally snatched from the crematorium door through a miracle that Trudi described in her book “A Daughter’s Gift of Love” (The Jewish Publication Society, 1992). She vowed then never to abandon a child in distress. After the war she married and immigrated to Israel with her husband and mother. She began to fulfill her vow in the 60’s when she was a full-time microbiologist and pregnant with her third child. During her work with needy children she became aware of their physical and psychological suffering due to severe dental problems. She could identify with these children, having had her own teeth knocked out by a Nazi guard in a concentration camp.
