Today is Bela’s birthday. Edie and Bela had a deep and meaningful love, which even trauma and endless challenges could not undo.

Bela was a loved accountant in El Paso, and was known to create lasting relationships with his clients. He had a huge stutter, and would take a run up to start any conversation. But all of those who knew him best knew to wait patiently until he got the words out. Bela loved jokes and was always a total joy to be around.

He loved going to Juarez and buying papaya which we ate every morning with lime.

This loving and gentle man was born on the same day as Hi**er. It turns out we all choose who to be in this lifetime. Bela had much anger inside him for all that was taken and those he lost, but he turned to the light, becoming a force for love and unity in El Paso. He was known to have faithful clients who were Mexican, Arab and Jewish.

We miss you Bela and wish you a happy birthday ❤️

“That’s the thing about learning. You can know and know and know yet never reach the summit.
Learning is a rope that never touches the ceiling. I want that kind of climb - a never-ending ascent, a life in the sky.”

From The Ballerina of Auschwitz, Edie’s book for young adults readers. (Have you sent this to the young adult in your life?)

We wish this for each of you. A life of learning. Of reaching upward to a life in the sky.

Shabbat shalom. Keep our dearest Edie in your prayers.

Lots of love,
Team Edie

Today we remember the shared trauma that was the Holocaust. Yom Hashoa is a day of remembrance- for all those who were lost and for all those who survived.

Our dear Edie shares her story of dancing for Mengele in this beautiful video - created with her grandson Jordan Engle for a TEDxSanDiego event a few years ago.

Today we remember to find courage even in the darkest hours. Edie reminds us that courage will help us to be free of the anxiety, fear and frustrations that can consume our daily lives.

We love you Edie and thank God you were saved to share with us all your wisdom and love.

With love,
Team Edie



Also a thank you to NAJEEB SABOUR for his beautiful cello work for the piece.

Sharing moments with family has been one of Edie’s most precious parts of life. This image was from her great grandson’s barmitzvah last year.

And… Edie now has two beautiful new great granddaughters added to her family!

Today there is so much to be grateful for - and there is also so much to be afraid of.

As Edie reminds us, “pay attention to what you are paying attention to”

What are you focusing on? (Let us know)

Today we choose to focus on family and on love.

All our love,
Team Edie

“We cannot choose to have a life free of hurt. But we can choose to be free, to escape the past, no matter what befalls us, and to embrace the possible.”

Wishing you all a very happy Passover. Our dearest Edie is going strong though needs regular O2 these days.

This is a day she loves - and always retells the story of the Passover in 1944 when her father kissed the girls on their head - the night before they were taken from their homes and moved to the brick factory.

Indeed Passover is about change. It is about liberation. It is about being free in the mind even when we may be living otherwise.

May you all find some peace in this Passover and Easter season. Spring is a powerful time for growth and we are here supporting your bloom!

Lots of love,
Team Edie

A beautiful moment with Edie at the San Diego premier of the documentary, “The Choice”

With Edie are John David Coles - the director of the film (Homeland, S*x and the city, Hoise of Cards) and to her right, is Edie’s dear friend and fellow Psychologist, Dr. Diana Weiss-Wisdom - who both helped to bring this amazing project to life.

Hopefully soon we’ll get this documentary out into the world for all of you to see!!

With love,
Team Edie
