This is a picture of my mother, Olga Neuwirthova, nee Bondyova, and me. I am the from the left, sitting in the donkey carriage. The photo was taken in Luhacovice in the early 1930s.
My mother's first husband was Doctor Emil Neuwirth, my father. He comes from Zilina. My mother's first marriage didn't last long. Her husband caught typhus and later he became mentally ill; he was treated in a psychiatric clinic. My mother stayed alone with me, later she got divorced and married to a Russian immigrant. He wasn't a Jew. His name was Doctor Sergej Panov and he was a doctor, too.
