Part 2: Stuart Clark

After reading the second part of this book, it is probably the most inspiring story i have ever read. I have never even heard of a person with as much strength Gerda had. When everyone was dieing during the death march, she kept positive which saved her life. She even kept her friends alive longer even though they died, they were able to have more time because of Gerda. When she got to the hospital and met Kurt she had the energy to try and heal quickly. Even after the doctor said amputation might be a solution she kept positive and was rewarded by being able to walk. Also she was one of the most unselfish people you will ever hear about. When the general came in and told her she was leaving to be safe, she asked and worried if the other girls were going to be safe as well. Also she would not accept the money Kurt was offering her when she needed it the most she has ever needed it before. Gerda is the most tremendous person i have ever read about!
