    popa: lol!

    Husband has been diagnosed with an issue, getting help finally, where he was willing to go, but not a total professional, so it’s not covered by insurance. She needs help to get her through years of abuse. Not having the funds to pay for all this causes more anguish, so Thank ALL OF YOU for your advice. Hope they find help.

    Health: I hear you….. I will give you the same advice I was given by Rabonim/Dayanim in reference to one of my children who is divorced.

    He had a child who has and is continuously being turned against him from day 1.(after the divorce)

    Doing this to a poor child is messing him up for life! They tell me just be patient he will grow up one day and everything will turn around , and he will see his father for who he really is. The parent who does this couldn’t care less about their child only revenge!

    I know this is all easier said than done…. but blood is thicker than water!

    I Think most of you are being insensitive to her feelings. Right now this is her nisayon and she needs to get over it, which i.y.H. she will.As with all emotional pain, time will heal. Hoping you meet your basherte very soon!

    Health, not to diminish your pain in any way, BUT each to his own, hearing that someone is worse off never made any nisoyon easier for me.SHE NEEDS TO BE ABLE TO GO ON WITH HER LIFE,AS YOU ALSO SHOULD.

    My Take: Sorry I didnt reply earlier. Just checked in tonight.

    First of all, amen to your brochos! I also remember the total feeling of exhaustion! I wondered if I would ever be able togo back to a routine life? Sometimes I used to look out the window and wondered how are all those people just going on with their lives? Do they understand? If you would like to share the name of your family member I would try to have her in mind… Wishing you and your family a true lichtig Channukah!!

    My Take: I think you need to work on that cloud… It really is what you make it. I know, believe me , it’s extremely difficult. Whenever I think of the doctors, the tests, the hospital, I feel sick.

    Try not to let this cloud follow you, try going after the sun.I found alot of comfort in my Tehillim, talk to Hashem, only He can help us…

    My Take: I can truly appreciate your questions. I think everyone is different and every case is different. The fear in me NEVER goes away, nor from the patient unfortunately! She is seeing someone now who ( for other reasons)I hope will be able to help her deal with this as well.It doesn’t only affect her, it affected the whole family who was aware.I try to work on my emuna and bitochin, that’s part of my choosing this screen name after all. We really need to believe that everything has a reason and everything is for the good. Hashem has been extremely kind to us, we’ve had various tests in life. I pray we pass all of them.

    One thing I definitely have learned no one is guarenteed in life.

    One of my children was “redt” a shidduch with a “survivor” they couldn’t believe I would consider it for a healthy child. Though we couldn’t turn it down for that reason.We understood… (BTW it didn’t work out anyway)

    My Take: Thank you for your kind words. Yes Baruch Hashem that patient is Gezint. We have so much to be thankful for. Hashem should help ALL cholei yisroel mamash bekoriv!

    The stories from that period over ten years ago are still very painful to me. I wish I could work on it more to forget….

    The ikar is when we do a chesed for others we know how NOT to do it, don’t we?

    Wishing your family member a complete refuah sheleima!!

    My Take: A very speedy refuah Sheleima to the patient. I must tell you I have so much to say, I could probably write a book on this. I feel anyone who has not been on the receiving end of this chesed really should not be voicing their opinion here. You have absolutely no idea, and you never should, what expenses are entailed in dealing with a patient. You are not a beggar and shouldn’t be referred to as such! These organizations are wonderful in many ways and can use improvement in many ways. Unfortunately I was on the receiving end with one of the very famous organizations which really could use a tikun. I used them for one thing only , transporatation to and from chemo. treatments and constant testing. I was questioned from them numerous times of the validity of our visits???!! I was once asked why can’t you go on the Bikur Cholim bus? Sure, chemo. patients would definitely enjoy the bumpy ride after a session , don’t you think?

    After a couple months of rides, I was told the rides would have to stop, only offering us one way. When I asked why, I was told people abuse the system, use it for shopping. So I asked, are you aware of the drop off and pick up addresses? So the kind transportation provider said, well you never gave us a diagnosis? I said what? I thought chemo. was enough, I have no problem giving you that info.

    This was really ridiculous!! Humiliating to put it mildly. When you are dealing with a sickness, rachmana litzlan, you really don’t need any other aggravation. That’s what this chesed is supposed to be all about, relieving the tension.

    It may be very common but not all women take drugs, no need to. As far as your insinuation with xxx amount of children, well those who need drugs will do so with even one child. Lets put things into perspective. I will share a story with you, a family member told me that her dayin told her to go on birth control after one of her children were born. She was amazed, she didnt see the need for it so she asked him why? The dayan answered ” You pick, it will be either birth control or pills for your nerves!

    Skiaddict: I truely feel for your predicament..

    though I would like to share another wedding scenario with you from yesterday. I was at a chasuna where aniece of the machateneste came dressed in a fashion shall we say different than the whole family. The wedding was quite crowded, but I noticed everyone looking at her, pitying her. It really was awful. The reason is this neice was not brought up this way and only changed her attire within this year. people who knew her before looked at her with shock.Can we say that the crowd of almost 1000 people were all closed minded or shallow. I am not here to judge that. I have one question, if she loves her aunt, why couldnt she dress accordingly just for the chasuna, so as not to stick out and make everyone turn around? When someone not frum from my family attends our simchas, they respect our beliefs and comes dressed accordingly. Why cant someone brought up with the same beliefs have the same respect?

Seperate seating can NOT be equated to these CRACKPOTS!Just because you are not on the level of others who feel that seperate seating is a chiyuv, doesn’t mean you should make fun of them! Taliban women is another parsha altogether and so are those in Quebec, nebach. I truly feel sorry for them!

    I once read a letter sent to Rebetzin Yungreis, it was from a mother who said she can’t manage she wants to run away… Someone else replied for the Rebetzin. She said that she is the other woman every one envies. She works in the financial district making a 6 figure salary. Is there something to envy? No absolutely not, she said that her co workers were extremely intimidated from her Shabbos observance. She claims in the BIG world out there, they really are anti semetic and don’t appreciate religious Jews. She also stated that fertility drugs cost a fortune, that that is where all her husbands and her salary goes. She described in detail all the procedures both her husband and her have taken. How everyone looks at her husband in Shul, why is he limping again.Then she says” You feel like running away, run very far, because you don’t deserve your children!”

    That letter shook me up so much, I was never able to complain about my kids again!

    First of all from my life experiences, I have learned that what you assume is going on by someone else is NOT necessarily true. What I am trying to tell you, is don’t make assumptions. You really never know what is truly doing by someone else. I personally was raised not to really care what is going on by someone else, that comes along with emuna, that whatever was destined for me will be mine anyway.Hatzlocha with your struggles. I am sure you can do it!
