Summer came to an end and it was Rosh Hoshanah and a time to celebrate. Elie found his dad all bent over. On Yom Kippur most men did not fast as usual because fasting would lead to a faster death. Elie and his dad are no longer in the same block. Elie was moved to the construction group. The doctor saw each of them and they both passed his examine.Winter began and Elie’s foot began to swell. He soon could not feel his foot on his leg. Elie was being moved in the snow and had to march 56 blocks when the gate of the camp opened. Elie continued to march as instructed even though he was in pain.
I can imagine how hard it was for Elie to march with a foot he could not feel. His desire to survive and live was very strong. He did what he needed to due to keep the guards from bothering him. Elie wanted to live.
