We lost our parents in World War II. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe learned from our experiences, becoming strong through adversity. As we grew up, the couple who eventually looked after us made choices on our behalf. We were officially fostered by them. How would things turn out in the years ahead for us sisters with a special bond?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI was born in Prague, brought up in England and now live in Australia. My sister Lydia and I had talked about us writing together the story of what had happened to us. Lydia sadly died in 1988, and it took me a while before I decided I could do this by myself. My sensitivity has aided me in my writing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt wasn't until we were on the SS Orcades, bound for Australia, that my husband, Dennis, said to me, \"I am so excited. I have something to tell you. I am going to use my second name, John. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI have never liked my name, Dennis, so it's John from now on. Are you all right with that?\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Yes, if that's what you want.\" He gave me a hug. So that is what happened, and he was known as John from then on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI have used U.S., short for Uncle Stan, and A.J, which is short for Aunty Jean. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sylvia Moss\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1923501526\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781923501522\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sylvia Moss\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/13\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 490\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.09d","brand":"Sylvia Moss","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48520233386239,"sku":"9781923501522","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_791f0126-663b-43ce-aed0-576f14f1de28.jpg?v=1778741537","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/we-made-it-sylvia-moss-9781923501522","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
