Eduard Bloch may just be a footnote history but he did influence Hitler's life that would benefit Eduard in the long run. When Hitler was young Eduard was an average Jewish doctor. When Hitler's mom got breast cancer he was aware that Hitler's financial situation was harsh. So for that he reduced the fees for Hitler (he even didn't cared if these fees were paid). This shocked Hitler so much that he would hold him in gratitude for the rest of his life.

When Hitler became leader and started persecuting the Jews he allowed Eduard to be protected when every other Jews was persecuted. Hitler gave Eduard what he wanted when he requested it and removed the discriminatory barriers that were placed on every other Jew. He even allowed Eduard to sell his home at market price (which was otherwise impossible) when he wanted to leave for the US. Hitler had a big affection towards this man and even called him the "noble Jew".

This made me wonder. If Hitler was willing to give anything to this man could Eduard persuaded him to stop persecuting the Jews at this own request?
