As Elie and his dad got off the train they wanted to shower and sleep. Elie got very angry when his dad asked him to please let him die. Elie showed his dad the corpses of those who had died. His father was ready to die. The sirens then sounded and the men could move into the barracks. Elie moved in and could not see his dad. Elie felt ashamed for leaving him. Elie found hid dad and gave him coffee and stayed insdide while elie went to get food. When Elie came back in his dad had no food since he was sick and on the verge of death.
After three days they got to shower and the sick people were last.Elie;\’s dad told him where he had buried the gold and silver in the cellar. People began to beat Elie’s dad as he grew weaker and weaker. No one would help his dad since in the concentration camp every man looks out for himself. When Elie woke up on 1/29/45 his dad had been taken out during the night. Elie did not have any more tears and felt free at last.
I know how Elie felt when his dad was so sick and could not take care of himself. It was hard for Elie to take care of and protect his dad. Once he died Elie was very sad but he knew his dad was in a better place and did not have to deal with life in the concentration camp any more.
