“Oy, nebach.”
“I feel so bad for him.”
“That poor boy.”
“What’s next?”
The neighbors were used to discussing Avraham Tzvi. First, his mother passed away and everyone felt horrible for the teenage boy left behind. Then his father remarried and he was sent to live with his grandparents, and they wondered how he would recover. Next his grandfather passed away and he lost his only parent in this world once again.
“One pen cannot describe,” says a letter signed by Rav Yisroel Miller of the Badatz & Rav Chaim Kanievsky zt”l, “what he has experienced in the past few years.”
Readers around the world have now seen one of the last letters signed by Rav Chaim, in support of a chassan who has led a traumatic life. The young man has lost every parental figure and is on his own, known by his friends and neighbors as someone who has suffered tremendously.
