Six years after my mother’s death, I found out that she was not born Jewish, that she had converted to Judaism before coming to the U.S. I wonder, if my own mother wasn’t born Jewish, what does that say about my own Judaism?

I am keenly aware of my status as a second-generation survivor and a first-generation American.

What was it she survived her mother's bad decision?
