Portuguese term or phrase: prezados senhores da claims conference
Prezados senhores da claims conference
Na época contava com apenas 8 anos de idade, e meus pais foram levados ao campo de concentração. Fui obrigada a trabalhar nos campos de colheitas pelas autoridades romenas e alemãs da época,e como não havia outro meio de sub-existir, fui obrigada a viver nas ruas como mendiga. Por isso, sendo esre também um trabalho forçado e um meio de vida muito inferior ao que levava na casa de pais, peço a este renomado conselho, também a minha indenização, mais que por direito, pois fui privada da minha infância e da liberdade.
Sendo eu sobrevivente do Holocausto, e estar passando por muitas dificuldades financeiras, solicito ao Claims Conference com fervor a minha indenização.
Agradeço antecipadamente
