How to survive? This is a story of grit, determination and faith between my father and mother. Despite being separated from my Dutch father for three long years of both being prisoners under the Japanese in the 2nd World War in Indonesia they managed to find each other and lived a fulfilling life. My English mum in her story describes her hardship in camp amongst mostly Dutch women with her baby daughter. My dad's version writes about moving from camp to camp, the labour they had to endure and his efforts to find my mum after peace had been declared. They both held onto their belief that there would be a time that they would be reunited once this nightmare was over.
