Holocaust Memorial Day: How my mother-in-law survived the camps

On Holocaust Memorial Day, now that most of the survivors of the Holocaust have died, their children and extended family have taken on the responsibility of sharing the experiences of those who have passed.

One of those survivors was Isabel Lowy, who recorded an interview with her son Chris just before her death in 1984 - an interview which will now become part of his presentations in schools organised by Holocaust Educational Trust.

Her message was: "It must be wrong to barricade yourself behind bitterness to bury yourself in hatred... In that way the world will never be a happy place."

Isabel was also the mother-in-law of Today's Martha Kearney, who describes the survivor as "bright and passionate".
