Tragedy

Dear Keren Esther,
Hello, I would have thought that an organization like yours is also listening!
I’m a widow myself. Indeed, before, my husband had a good place. Only, with the disease, which had already raged twice, no insurance, no coverage was ever granted. When he left in December 2014, I found myself, mother of three children 10, 11 and 16 years old, unemployed, with all the expenses to be paid, but without anything, without anything more.
This is a shock, because in addition to mourning, you have to deal with dozens of things you did not expect! The children’s questions, their anxieties, their pain and your future, which is suddenly disappearing … I’m still in the tunnel and I’m going step by step. But thanks to gestures like yours, it warms the hearts, it is good for the soul, know the good.
I send you the book I wrote about this wonderful man my husband was, maybe it will give you an idea of ​​who we are … What I became: a mother who will do everything for your children. Know that the amount of money you paid me, I will keep it for my children, it is for them, I am so happy. You really touched me; I do not know how to thank you, or perhaps if, to promise you that, if one day, my situation allowed me, I will pay your body something, a sum to arrive in a mailbox, a letter, a word, nice, a check and that flow the tears of joy of the one who receives it.
I really thank you and know that today; you embellished my day, forever you will stay in a corner of my heart.

I. M.

I want to thank you very much for helping my brother, a Shliach in K …, in these times of great need. My brother’s wife (they have 10 children) contracted “Big Cancer” in her foot, and after multiple surgeries, chemotherapy and consultations in Israel and the United States the conclusion was that the foot had to be amputated. Chemotherapy continues for a while, more as a precaution – just in case something has reached beyond the point of amputation. The significant expenses they will have to face are unique in this case because a) a prosthesis. The health care system will only provide the most basic model, something that is not very good in general, let alone for a long life and the duty to care for such a family. Any type of prosthesis to improve must be paid for by the patient. The cost is in the tens of thousands of dollars. Your help is greatly appreciated. b) Rehabilitate different parts of the house to accommodate a life with a prosthesis. The most important is the bathroom and toilet facilities, which must be completely redesigned for this purpose. It’s not funded by the health care system. Once again, your help is greatly appreciated.

I also want to thank you personally for helping me with a significant donation as we approach Rosh Hashana. While my concerns do not compare to that of my brother, I fight no less than him, to survive. And your help is important in reducing fees and charges.
