I have been at a complete loss of words this week, at the outpouring of the generosity of each and every one of you. From those who spent countless hours organizing the fundraising campaign, to the people who led teams, and worked so hard to collect the money, and to each and every person, young and old, who so generously donated the precious funds. Now, I have been blessed with the ability to stay home with the proper care that I need. I am filled with an indescribable gratitude for the outpouring of love and caring that you have shown me.
I don’t know why HaShem has given me ALS, but I know, with emunah shaleima, that His plan for me, is far better for me, than any plan that I could ever imagine. In so many ways, my life today, is better than before I was diagnosed. My connection with HaShem is so much closer now, my faith is immeasurable, even on the days that are more physically challenging. I am able to use my inability to speak, and go into my head and just be with HaShem. It’s such a blessing.
With my koach habracha I am bentching each of you with all the brachos in the Torah; with good health and happiness, shalom bayis, menuchas hanefesh and menuchas haguf, and with hatzlacha and bracha always!
