“There’s something I need to tell you.”
Every time Esti Tefilinsky uttered these words on a shidduch date, it didn’t end well. The shadchan would call her up that night, uncomfortably making up a different excuse every time: “He’s decided that you’re not the same hashkafa.” “He just doesn’t see it.”
But when Esti told her dark secret to Shmuel Eisen, it was different; This time, she felt unafraid. Shmuel’s green eyes gazed quizzically into hers, and the little voices that usually took space her head, whispering words of warning, were stunned into silence by the warm and accepting expression on his face. 
And Esti told Shmuel her secret. But instead of shock or horror, Shmuel’s eyes flooded with compassion.

The word self-pity does not exist in Ruchama Tefilinsky’s dictionary.
Even after being abandoned by her husband of seventeen years. Even after his suffering from a mental breakdown.  Even after being left to raise and support six children completely on her own.
When Ruchama caught her husband smoking and using his phone on Shabbos, behavior which was highly unusual for the man, she knew that something was very wrong. As it turned out, Dovid* was suffering from a severe mental breakdown. But most disturbing of all was when Ruchama’s husband suddenly packed up his things and left his beloved family for good.

Here they were – the night they had been waiting for. 
The night of Shira’s engagement party. With girlish excitement and a healthy dose of nerves, she got dressed and descended the stairs down into her family living room.
With tears in his eyes, her father saw his little girl become a woman in an instant. Avraham Meralel gave his daughter Shira a hug, and they both held on tight. “I am so proud of you, and the woman you have become,” Avraham whispered. It was a moment they would never forget. 
The night was full of joy, laughter, song and celebration. 
That’s what made it all the more shocking when, one week later, Shira held her father’s hand as his respirator in the COVID ward was unplugged.

It was with a tremble in his breath and hesitation in his step that Rabbi “B,” a Jerusalem father of 12, approached the door of his neighbor, revered chacham Rav Naftali Nussbaum shlit”a. He had returned home expecting to find his children eating supper. Instead he was greeted by a gruesome scene: Blood was smeared across the walls, the floors. The younger of the children were whimpering in fear. His son “Michoel,” the eldest of his family, had had another episode of trying to hurt himself. And for the first time in a long time, Rabbi B didn’t know where to turn.

Last month, the Kirschbaum family’s suffering was on the lips of nearly every Jew in the world, as they mourned the loss of their teenage son. Nachman (15) was crushed to death in what is now being referred to as the “Meron tragedy.”
The Kirschbaums flew at the beginning of last week to America in order to get an emergency liver transplant for their six-year-old daughter Michali. Before leaving the country, however, they made one very important stop – to the beis hakevorim.

Rav Mordechai Gross is a huge Posek in Israel who is legendary for the thousands of people who have come to him for Brachos and immediately saw their long-awaited yeshuos come true before their very eyes. It’s rare for the Rav to give a bracha based on a specific condition.
Until now.
