My husband's grandparents are both Holocaust survivors -- each was the only one to survive in their entire family. After the concentration camps were liberated, they both were sent to the same displaced persons camp. He was 17 and she was 16. They had no loved ones left and spent all of their time together, traumatized and grief-stricken. After they left the displaced person camp, they had to trek across the mountains in Europe. They did that together, and by the time they finally finished their long journey (in Canada), they were married and she was pregnant. That might sound shocking considering their ages, but they wanted to create a family together after losing everyone they loved. They have both passed, but they were married for more than 50 years, and have many grandchildren and great grandchildren.
Amazing.
