Here is what Tomeq wrote in accompaniment to this wonderful photo of his lovely mother.
"Ok. This is my mum.
Born in 1944 in a resettlement camp when the people living in the eastern part of Poland (later appended to USSR) were being transported to the western part of Poland.
Her mother was a cleaner, raising 5 children on her own... I can't even begin to imagine how it was... Anyway, my mum turned out tough as nails but lovely all the way... (which I believe I managed to capture here :D :D :D)"

Thanks for sharing her with us Tomeq, you have captured her beautifully.
