There's a radio show in Israel, where people call or write in to look for missing relatives from the Shoah or from wars. You can write to them by email at this address: mador2@gmail.com
Their fax number is: +972-2-5313315

Let me know what they answer you.

I just listened for your radio show, but it was apparently preempted by live coverage of the Nobel prize for chemistry that's being awarded to an israeli scientist. I think you should send them an email asking when the show will be on.

Has the family in Poland been in contact with her? Why are you nervous? In these matters it's not a good idea to wait to long. People don't live forever.

Does she speak English? I can translate from Hebrew to English if there is a need.

im not sure if she speaks english? i am nervous as i am getting the gist that the family are not to fond of my father as he left Poland and came to Australia to escape the darkness there to find a better life for himself. im not sure on what her reaction will be, but you are correct, no one lives for ever. and if i dont do it i will never know. thanks for your help, you are very kind

I'm not sure why Nina's family would mind if your father decided to move to Australia. But anyway, keep us posted. It's an interesting story.
