During the Warsaw Uprising in 1944, 8-year-old Ró?a Maria Go?dziewska became the youngest nursing assistant with the Polish Resistance Home Front Army, after her father was killed by the Gestapo and her home burned during reprisals against the resistance. During the fighting Ró?a worked in a basement field hospital where she was known as Ró?yczka, “Little Rose.”
She survived the war and later graduated from the Silesian University of Technology and moved to France in 1958 where she married and had two children. She died in 1989 at the age of 53.
