After they had left for Israel, Shayna and Avraham tried to correspond with their families.
In the early days of the war, the Rosenfelds had fled to Russia, and were looking into moving to the USA and refusing to let their eldest daughter convince them to join her and her husband in the Holy Land.
Nussbaums had stayed in Poland, figuring the war would be a quick one. They were wrong and by the time Eidel decided they had to leave, the family had already lost several members. Among them, Avraham's father Marek Daniel (43), his siblings, Oskar Lev (18), Nikifor Ariel (16), Andżelika Ilana (14), Andrzej Mordechai (11), and Maksym Natan (21, Monika's husband). It was only supposed to be men over the age of 10 getting taken, but Andżelika had been sick, so she had been taken away too. As soon as the police had left with them, Eidel hatched a plan to get herself and the rest of her family to Israel, where she knew her son would help take care of them. The letter had to be smuggled, but once it reached its destination, the Nussbaums would be saved.
Once they received the letter, the Zions used the money enclosed to buy a plot of land and get a builder to start building. The builder, David, was a family friend, so he helped them get funding from an international Jewish organization to build a home for the remaining Nussbaums, who by this point were planing on changing their last name to Zion.
Another family friend organized for a two German families to give them their passports so they could get to Israel. For their voyage, they were to be Catrin (Eidel), Gunter (Jakub), Eleonora (Natalia), Knut (Rafal), and Hanne (Alina) Strand, a family who lost their patriarch to the war and was heading to Greece to see family and Adele (Monika), Janina (Milena), Siegmund (Salomon) Bleier, an older sister/younger sibling trio that were being sent to a navy yard to work the ships. Once they got to their destinations they'd board ships and go to Israel.
