My husband was deported from Nagyvarad at the age of 17, along with his family, and he was the only survivor. He only spent three days in Auschwitz, then he was transferred to Buchenwald. After liberation he was taken to a hospital and spent three weeks in a sanatorium. I don’t know exactly where this sanatorium was, somewhere around Buchenwald. After deportation he was left all alone. When he came home he joined the Communist Party and became an atheist. None of his relatives were left alive, so he had nothing to do in Nagyvarad. He came to Kolozsvar because here he had all the friends he had made in the camp.
