Thank you for the wonderful and heartfelt interview.
What to say?
We are w/you and praying.
A Sichos of the Rebbe was found about searching through the rubble more than eighty years ago. Amazing. It was said as only the Rebbe can say it. He said one has to keep searching through the rubble and not give up. He then quoted the Gemara. Mind boggling.
Please G@D we should see miracles.
We are so sorry that you have had to shoulder so much of this.
May Hashem send you all of the Koach that is needed.
Mossiach already.
May Hashem bless you for all that you do and may there be Good News soon.
Best,
Bracha Reply

Rebbetzin Chani and Rabbi Sholom,

Thank you so much for a heartfelt interview filled with love, kindness, commitment, and words of wisdom. Also, thank you for reminding us not to take our lives for granted because things can change in a moment. We must be aware of our souls and others and love and respect each other in the now. Best wishes.

Prayerfully and Shalom, Reply
