<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Out of the blue, without any advanced preparation, a family from Modi\u2019in Ilit was thrust into the eye of the storm. Mommy is sick<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After digesting the news, the father went straight to the nearby building of the Ezer Mizion Center knowing that there, they\u2019d direct him as to where they go from here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So began the wondrous journey with Ezer Mizion. A journey to physical recovery, emotional support,<\/em> and empowerment of faith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the mother recovered with thanks to G-d, <\/em>the couple sent an especially moving letter. Read on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn those first, frightening hours, Mrs. Altusky, from medical counseling supported us with words of encouragement and faith<\/em> and with a listening ear that patiently received our repeated questions. She helped us search for the most appropriate doctor. She and Mrs. Porat became \u00a0the \u00a0figures who charged us up with strength and rallied to our very request for help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

R\u2019 Emanuel Adler, who, with his inner calm, genuine caring, and gentle sensitivity, inquired, kept things moving, and even arranged a personal visit by Rav Chollak, which contributed so much to us. If we were stuck without a necessary drug after an operation, one phone call to R\u2019 Emanuel and everything was taken care of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMrs. Berlin and her co-staffers frequently arranged empowering and exciting events. It\u2019s hard to describe in mere words the \u201cIndulgence Day\u201d at the Galei Sanz Hotel. We were exposed to the world of Ezer Mizion\u2019s HUGE heart! The abundance, the activities, the smiles, the atmosphere. You could almost feel the great pride Hashem was enjoying at the raring about each other among his children.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The couple especially points out the emotional support and cushioning that they and their children received all along the way. Birthdays full of surprises, happiness, and laughter, with the amazing volunteers who went to every extreme to raise their spirits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The mother of the family mentions that even though one birthday was celebrated the day after she received a treatment, she couldn\u2019t bring herself to remain in bed and miss the fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe kids never missed any of the programs. They would run there happily way before the time, and come back thrilled from the diverse activities with amazing volunteers, true <\/em>baalot chessed.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0\u201cWhen we told the children that Mommy baruch Hashem <\/em>feels better, their eyes glistened with tears (ahem\u2026 not tears of emotion\u2026). \u2018You mean Ezer Mizion won\u2019t invite us to the programs anymore???\u2019 they asked.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And the summer family retreat: We just packed our suitcases \u2014 without thinking of activities, food, equipment for hikes, etc. Thank you for first-class accommodations, rich meals, volunteers who breathe the oxygen of Ezer Mizion volunteering, for endless patience, warmth, all in good cheer and with a light touch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFor abundant performances for the children\u2019s pleasure. For a moving and unifying evening of inspiration that opened the hearts. And above all \u2013 for Rabbi Chollak\u2019s speech, which was full of faith <\/em>and awareness of Divine <\/em>chessed and infused us with a spirit of closeness to Hashem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAll in order to give and give and give, without a limit!!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe send our blessings to you, all those who are care for the needs of others <\/em>and with endless love <\/em>May you see blessing and success in all of your work.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
