When it was first established in 1940 the conditions were deplorable and wretched. As time went on, more and more people were sent there from other parts of Warsaw and the surrounding areas, and conditions rapidly deteriorated. Famine and disease took their toll, as was the intention of the Nazis.
Disease enters any area where starvation, overcrowding and indequate santitation are prevelant. Typhoid was the most common and widespread disease.
Sad :-( As a lesbian of Jewish decent, I have lived many of the emotions that come out of a situation as in the holocaust. I was also taught to remember the holocaust. Emotions are not only sadness, but anger, rage and extremely frightened. Wondering why you were singled out and feeling completely degraded, discriminated against, persecuted, targeted, and intimidated.
The living conditions in the Warsaw ghetto were terrible. I had heard on a PBS series about the Holocaust that the conditions were barely liveable. All the children had to work for there food and may of there parents had already died because of starvation. The Nazis put them in the ghetto to keep them under close watch until they had to be carried off to the concentration camps. They were also very cramped in the apartments where they stayed.
Relieved that they didn't have access to the bloody internet, so that they didn't have to read some of the imbecilic bloody questions that people ask.
