The first doll wore "Confrontation with Evil" - a letter addressed to the Krakow Conference (August 1988) and "The Letter of August 23". This doll left the country with the Belgian journalist Josie Dubie, who tells her story in the movie "Red Disaster". "The second doll, containing the letter addressed to Pope John Paul II in 1988, was taken out of the country, in the hands of Julie (Doina Cornea's niece), who was less than one year old. Now it is, donated by Julie, at the Sighet Memorial". - Leontin Iuhas (Doina Cornea's son)
