Dear friends,

Purim and Thanksgiving – what’s the connection?

As you know, my husband, Rabbi David Frid, has been struggling with ALS for the last ten years.

Purim is a special time of Simcha, but for our family it is also a day of Thanksgiving. On Purim day six years ago R’ Dovid came home from Hadassah hospital after an emergency tracheotomy and a month long stay. Thanks to dedicated doctors and the Tefillot of Am Yisroel, R’ Dovid passed through that trial safely and returned home, albeit surrounded by life support and other machines, but still smiling.

Even though Purim is a crazy, busy day, we’d be so grateful if you could give us a few minutes of your time. We’ve made the Mitzvah of Matanos L’Evyonim fast and easy. Please click the DONATE BUTTON on this page to give your lifesaving donation or for a tax-deductible receipt, press the following link to Kupat Hair – קופת העיר.

By pressing on the SHARE button on your right, you’ll be doubling and tripling your Mitzvah!

Looking back, it is unbelievable that six years have passed. In the beginning, being able to give R’ Dovid quality care at home seemed like an impossible dream, but thanks to your support that dream has come true. R’ Dovid wishes to thank the Ribono Shel Olam and all of Am Yisroel for giving him life. Without you, the miracle would never have happened.

In the Zechus of your support, may you and yours be Zocheh to the powerful Bracha of the venerable Tzadik of Jerusalem, HaRav HaGaon Rav Gamliel Rabinowitz, Shlita who personally visited R’ Dovid: “Donate generously and in this merit you will never be sick, not you or your families for all generations!”

Since Purim is a powerful time for prayer, please Daven for the Refuah Shlaima of Dovid Yehoshua Ben Leba Malka and all Cholim.
