Wow. I was being a little flippant, sorry. I didn't really consider that it might literally be true for some people.
Those are some amazing stories / memories. I can't imagine how difficult it must have been for your parents and others. Even thinking straight can be difficult when you don't have food. Add bitter cold to that (right?) and I'm impressed that they survived.
No need for apologies ... these silly conversations help us to connect and remind us of our human family.
I share my stories .... but it's also amazing to read the endless variety of other stories from so many other people in so many other situations in so many other times and places.
Thanks for sharing, really lovely to hear the stories!
