When one needs meat, the butcher is the place to go. Clothing is obtained at a clothing store and a mortgage loan at the bank.  A person requesting a mortgage at the fruit store would be considered mentally deranged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yet there is one place in Israel where one can go for almost any need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ezer Mizion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Peek over our shoulder and see what just came into the Inbox. \u201cMy 21 year old son who is now learning in one of the major yeshivos in Eretz YIsroel recently began having seizures, He has begun taking meds and since has had virtually no seizures. Now that he is in Eretz Yisroel, I worry about his ability to procure the meds he needs. Do you think I should buy them in the US and ship or is there a place he can buy it on a monthly basis in Eretz Yisroel?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The response was quick in coming and contained advice relating to the large expense in shipping and the more advised procuring in the country. Details were provided as to how to go about purchasing including a Rosh Yeshiva (head of a yeshiva) that will be helpful and an organization which is able to handle.\u00a0 The mother may be across the ocean but she now feels she has someone to rely on should any snag occur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maor Cohen, aka the Ezer Mizion LegoMan, encourages children dealing with cancer by means of giving them a gift of a Lego set  and sharing the experience of creating as they build together. But, in keeping with the Ezer Mizion goal of \u2018Their Challenges, Our Mission\u2019, the LegoMan did not limit his efforts to kids dealing with cancer. It came to his attention that   the two children of Omer, a man recently killed while working on his plantation, love Lego.  And it didn\u2019t take long until he was on his way with a big Lego set.   The gesture meant a lot to the boys and they attempted to reciprocate by giving Maor some of the fruit that had been picked by their father just before his death, a precious gift indeed. He gave, he received and, by doing both, he left a small bit of comfort behind for the family who had endured so much just because they are Jews.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Golden Age Division volunteer visited an 89 year old woman in a nursing home in Afula. During the conversation, the octogenarian expressed a desire to visit the grave of Shmuel Hanovi with her family, an impossible dream given her mobility challenges. But impossible dreams have a way of becoming reality at Ezer Mizion. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The volunteer mentioned it to her supervisor. The supervisor contacted the Ezer Mizion Ambulance Division. Extensive schedule juggling was done and a slot emerged. It was not long before this lovely lady and her children found themselves at the kever, an old tradition in their family.\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0As per Ezer Mizion tradition, the day was topped off with a delicious meal at a Jerusalem restaurant. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\"Facebook\"<\/a>\"twitter\"<\/a>\"pinterest\"<\/a>\"linkedin\"<\/a>\"mail\"<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
