Susan was a 16-year-old prisoner at Bergen-Belsen when the British arrived. She describes how the soldiers found her; nearly dead, with pulmonary tuberculosis, typhoid and famine oedema and severe malnutrition. It was a miracle she survived. She remembers being lifted out of her bed and placed in an ambulance by a battle- worn soldier whose humanity shone through in those moments of kindness.
