the war that saved my life
"a."sendler was one of the first poles recognized as righteous among the nations due to the efforts of jonas turkow, who stated for a polish language periodical in israel: "this noble woman ... worked for "żegota" and saved hundreds of jewish children, placing them in orphanages, convents and other places". the number of jewish children saved through sendler's efforts is not known. the social welfare department of the central committee of polish jews stated in january 1947 that sendler saved at least several dozen jewish children. later in her life, sendler repeatedly claimed that she had saved 2,500 jewish children. when michał głowiński, who as a child survived the war with sendler's help, was working on his book "the black seasons" in the late 1990s, sendler insisted that he writes about the 2,500 children she saved. as głowiński later told anna bikont, he felt obliged to comply because "one cannot refuse sendler". sendler often spoke of the list of 2,500 children she produced, kept in two bottles and gave to adolf berman, but no such list has ever materialized and berman never mentioned its existence. for the first time she talked about the list and the 2,500 saved children (and adults) in 1979; back then, however, she did not suggest that she was personally responsible for their survival and named twenty four people also involved in their rescue.
