Hania Wilmer

My daughter Hania Wilmer (nee Migdalska) on some trip. This photo was taken in 2003. My daughter Hania has a degree in psychology. She's married. Her husband is a mathematician. A very talented man. He's a software developer. Shortly before the introduction of the martial law, they went for a vacation, the martial law met them in Canada, and they never returned. He works at a psychiatric hospital, he's the head therapist there. And my grandsons were born there, Krzysztof in 1983, and Aleksander, or Alik, in 1986. Their first language was Polish. My daughter combines the different traditions at her home. There's a photo where her sons sit at the table in skullcaps, it's Pesach, but later it's Christmas, and their Polish friends come to visit them for Christmas Eve, and it's the proper Christmas Eve dinner, there's a tree. There was a Sunday school in Canada for lay, non-religious children, where they had lessons about, among other things, Jewish culture and tradition, the holidays, Hebrew classes too, if anyone wanted. Krzysztof and Alik attended that school. The boys are grown up now, Krzysztof is halfway into his university studies, he has completed the third year. Alik has been a bit at odds with school. A very talented boy. He loves music, he's set up a music studio for himself, writes songs, alas, school's been less important for him, and it's been like that for a couple of years now. And he'll probably be continuing his education in evening courses now.
