We had a hanukkia. It had..we would do…on Shabbat…we had a chain on the ceiling. And the Shabbat candelabra…my mother would…every Shabbat…on the eve of Shabbat, she would light candles. No, she would make a wick and put oil and water. And (we) would light (it). Even the…on Hanukkah, my mother would make a wick, and put oil and water with it, and they would light it. On Hanukkah. I’m telling you that at seven years (old) I fasted…it was Taanit Ester…it was very, very hot in our place. Very. During the day we would go down to the basement, and at night we would go up to the roof to sleep. This (is how it was), when they said you should fast, we fasted. If (they would say) “don’t fast”, we wouldn’t. That’s it. We used to listen to whatever my mother said, and that’s all. (I swear) on my life…I never heard. Only the men would go, and the women and girls would not go. The boys (would) go, (and so would) the men…(and) talk between themselves…and we wouldn’t listen.
