Spark Another Flame

[COMMUNICATED] There are some words which we should be blessed to never have to use on a daily basis. Words such as tumor, radiation, chemo, surgery. Yet for Mrs. S, a young wife and mother of three, these words are now being used in her everyday conversations.

Three months ago, Mr. S was diagnosed with a cancerous tumor in his brain. Immediately thereafter, he was rushed into emergency surgery to remove the growth. He is now looking at a minimum of a year – hopefully not more – of chemo and radiation treatment, and months of recovery afterward.

Due to the fact that he is feeling so weak, he can’t provide properly for his family. Bills are mounting, and they need to decide between paying medical, or grocery bills. There’s a daily worry of how they will pay for basic necessities. Both Mr. & Mrs. S’s fathers are no longer alive, and their respective mothers are not in a position where they are able to help them out. Despite not having much, their families have helped them out to their max.

At a loss of where to turn and with utter humility and shame, they are approaching you, asking that you open your heart and help their distraught family with your kind and generous donation.

This Chanuka, their three precious kinderlach, ages 8, 10, and 12, are lighting Chanukah lecht without a Totty. Totty is laying in bed too weak to join. Mr. & Mrs. S. are traveling daily to the hospital for treatment & appointments. Their kids have come home from school, more than once to find a note saying “Totty & Mommy are in the hospital, take supper from the fridge”.

The S. Family needs your help. They need money to pay for rent, food, car service to treatments, and utility bills.

In Mrs. S’s words, “Hashem should bless you that you should never have to go through the pain of watching a loved one suffer like this, and that you should always be happy and healthy, and always see nachas from your family.”
רבתי!!
היינט איז זאת חנוכה, די גמר הדין פאר דעס יאר.
… וצדקה מעבירין את רוע הגזירה…
כאפט אריין, גיבט אייער הארציגע נדבה, אין פויעלט אויס א גמר חתימה טובה, פאר אייך אין אייער גאנצע משפחה.
