The Legacy of Mrs. Esther Malka Tillim ‫ע”ה‬

O

ften a great leader is only recognized once they have passed away. Yet there are a select few who become legends even during their own lifetime. Mrs. Tillim was such a leader. During her more than three decades as a principal, Mrs. Tillim was celebrated far and wide as an exemplary principal who had a uniquely profound impact on her Talmidos.

Throughout her impressive career, Mrs. Tillim served as a guiding light to her students, while also providing a vital link to the generations of Bais Yaakov past. She personified the ideals and vision of Sarah Schneirer, the pioneer of chinuch habonos, and of Rebbetzin Vichna Kaplan, who brought the Bais Yaakov movement to America. Mrs. Tillim fostered in her Talmidos an historic connection, helping them understand that they are the bearers of the Bais Yaakov Legacy.

Mrs. Tillim was acclaimed for the love and understanding that she had for all her Talmidos. Under her

compassionate guidance, countless students flourished, gaining academic excellence, along with self-confidence.

Mrs. Tillim inculcated in them the values and ethics that would be essential for leading meaningful and fulfilling lives. Her unwavering commitment to their success and her unshakable belief in each and every one of them, left an indelible impression on all of her students and admirers. Her Talmidos will forever carry a bit of Mrs. Tillim in their hearts.

In her final years, Mrs. Tillim served as the inaugural principal of Bnos High School in Monsey. As such, Mrs. Tillim was afforded the unique opportunity to shape the school’s culture according to her chinuch principles. Resting firmly on the mesorah of her great mentors, Mrs. Tillim created an environment where chashivus haTorah, yiras shomayim and midos tovos are embedded into the heart of each student. True to form, Mrs. Tillim treated each Talmidah as a unique and special individual and instilled in them a

SUNDAY MONDAY || FEB. 9 10

deep pride in being a Bas Yisroel.

With Mrs. Tillim’s passing, Bnos High School is dedicated to ensuring that her chinuch legacy endures. The school is committed to carrying forth her vision for chinuch habonos. As a heartfelt expression of hakoras hatov for her extraordinary contributions, we humbly ask for your support in helping her legacy continue to thrive. With your contribution you will play an essential role in enabling her avodas hakodesh and commitment to excellence in chinuch habonos to remain alive for future generations.

As a lasting memorial, and to give admirers an opportunity to link their name to that of Mrs. Tillim.

Bnos High School will be establishing The Mrs. Tillim Legacy Wall, to be prominently displayed in the school building. This will serve as a constant reminder of Mrs. Tillim’s ideals, and a public display of connection for those who contribute. Let us honor Mrs. Tillim ‫ ע”ה‬and uphold the mission she so passionately championed.

EVERYONE WORKS HARDER

(Re: Teachers Work Harder Than You, Inbox, Issue 484) This letter is in response to the school secretary who wrote about how hard teachers work. I don’t disagree; teachers do work very hard, and I’m grateful to them, and they have my respect. But I feel like the letter writer is missing some important information about mothers who work outside the school system.

Like teachers, working mothers are also up at night with crying babies. We also wake up early to send our children off to school, making sure they are ready and happy (although, just like the children of teachers, our kids also sometimes give us a hard time).

You mentioned that the teacher is in class at 9 a.m., which probably means that she leaves at about 12:30 or 1 p.m., usually with a short break somewhere in the middle. Most women who work in offices or businesses work much longer hours, often without any break at all. You mentioned that teachers often don’t have the opportunity to eat a proper meal before walking into the classroom; with busy mothers’ tight work schedules, we’re often forced to skip meals as well, sometimes pulling through the day with just coffee to get us through back-to-back meetings, the pressures of deadlines, government audits or whatever else comprises our workday.

Without detracting from the very real work that teachers are performing, women who work outside the school system also have intense responsibilities and are “on” the entire time they are at work. They are not simply sitting and chilling in front of a computer.

I know that I, together with many other working mothers, leave the house with the last child dropped off, and come home together with them. There is no personal time, downtime or space without the kids. Just like teachers, we are also Yiddishe mothers with household responsibilities like cooking and serving supper, doing laundry, keeping the house running smoothly, and giving time to each of our children. When our kids come home, we need to be fully present for them, no matter how physically and emotionally drained we are from a full day — just like our dear teachers!

Since we’re at work every moment that our kids are in school, all grocery shopping, errands and appointments are done on Sundays, with all of our girls and little ones in tow. If we take some time off from work for urgent matters, we have to make up that time… somehow. There are no subs in office jobs.

It’s true that teachers trade in the emotional wellbeing of delicate children every day. It’s true that teachers have a unique responsibility because their actions toward their young and impressionable students can have tremendously far-reaching effects. But women who work outside the school system also must call upon all their reserves of self-discipline, self-control and emotional resilience to deal with their bosses, coworkers, clients and the many people they interact with every day.

Your child has what to say.

Children with speech and language defects suffer. Whether it’s a stutter, a processing difficulty, or a struggle to express himself, it’s painful.

They feel misunderstood and inferior. They can be mocked by their peers and fall behind academically. They’ll behave disruptively or act withdrawn.

Your child doesn’t have to suffer.

“When Hershi first came to me at the age of three, he could not articulate any consonants—he couldn’t even imitate the Rebbe saying alef or beis by his upsheren. Alef was a, and beis was e. Two years later, his parents sent me a recording of him by his chumash seudah, clearly enunciating every word of the pesukim from Vayikra!”

Unlike teachers, women who work outside the school system have no beginning, end or middle of the year.

There is no summer break to look forward to. There is no pre- or post-Yom Tov break. We work every day, all year, straight through the calendar.

Our community values, admires and cherishes our teachers. There is no way to measure who “works harder.”

Nor is there any reason to try to do so.

With mutual respect and a genuine effort to understand each other, we can be respectful and compassionate to all mothers, however they work or don’t, and daven that everyone be same’ach and matzliach with the situation Hashem has placed them in.

(Re: Teachers Work Harder Than You, Inbox, Issue 484) I’m the mother of young children, and I am also a teacher, so I can relate to both sides of the debate over schools having too much/not enough vacation time. I feel that the critical point is to remember the primary purpose of school. It’s not to solve the problem of who will watch the kids while their parents are at work. The point of sending our children to school is so that they could be educated. In fact, that’s not only the primary purpose; it’s the entire purpose. Schools are institutions of teaching and educating. The fact that they provide a safe, supervised place where our children can spend their time is just a side fact; it’s not even a secondary purpose. Therefore, it is not the school’s responsibility to provide more school days and/ or special programming on vacation days. It’s our job as parents to figure out childcare arrangements on those days for our school-aged children, just as we do for our not-yet-school-aged children.

All schools, Jewish and secular alike, give vacation time. It’s irrelevant if they do it for the teachers’ or students’ benefit; that is the universally accepted practice. It’s part of the primary function of a school, which is education. Vacation time allows teachers to recharge from their physically and emotionally draining job and

thereby teach better. Vacation time also allows children to refresh themselves and thereby learn better. So vacation time serves the primary purpose for which schools exist.

I’ve previously held high-pressure office-based positions, and I am currently a teacher. The challenges, exhaustion and dedication in teaching are significantly greater. They are also very rewarding, both in this world and the next. I encourage you to try it!

KNOW WHAT YOU DON’T KNOW

(Re: Teachers Work Harder Than You, Inbox, Issue 484) I am currently a teacher after having spent 20 years in corporate positions. I love teaching, find it deeply meaningful, and thank Hashem daily for this gift.

Teachers work very hard, and it’s not simple to quantify exactly how many hours they work. However, it seems to me that people who have never worked outside of a school environment do not understand the demands of a corporate environment.

I won’t detail them here, as I don’t believe there is any value in debating “who works harder.” But teachers, and those who have never worked outside of a school environment or heimeshe business, should at least be aware that they have no understanding of the reality of those jobs. The business and corporate environment involves a totally different mentality, culture, hierarchy, work ethic and lifestyle than you associate with the school system. If you’ve never worked in corporate, you don’t understand it.

overworked parents who work hard to provide for such a high level of material “needs” and wants because of community standards that are so difficult to meet.

I feel bad for the mother who cannot even take off from work when she’s sick.

I feel bad for the children who have such long hours at school and so little vacation because the schools listen to the many parents who can’t cope with vacation time.

When my kids have vacation, I am forced to take off from work, and I don’t get paid. I know that my kids need their vacation in order to breathe.

They need a break to recover from all the stress of rushed mornings; noisy classrooms; and rushed evenings with time only for supper, homework and a bath. Kids need time for free play, to just do nothing, to organize their shelves at home, for baking with family. Kids need a childhood.

I wish our community had resources to help mothers so that they can be mothers. There are organizations raising money for childless couples to have children. And then there are thousands of children whose parents are too exhausted to have time for them. Maybe we need to raise money for families so that mothers don’t have to work out of the house as much? Our community needs its mothers to be mothers. Our children need time at home, and need to feel at home in their homes. Our community is smart, and I believe that if enough people care, a solution can be found.

ONION CLARIFICATION

(Re: No More Tears, Inbox, Issue 484) Thank you for an amazing publication. There’s something in it for everyone each and every week!

I would like to add to the discussion regarding dehydrating onions prior to sauteing. I use this method all the time, and wait for all the liquid to be released from the onions before adding the oil, but the reason I do so is to bring out the full sweetness of the onions.

I actually find that my eyes become more irritated when I dehydrate the onions rather than going straight to sauteing, so I was surprised by last

week’s comment about “no more tears.” As far as I know, this method is flavor-enriching, but not necessarily tear-reducing.

WHAT OUR LEADERS SAY ABOUT COLLEGE

(Re: The College Mirage, Issue 483) Nowhere in the article about college degrees does it discuss the perspective of our rabbanim, roshei yeshivah, and menahalos. Collectively, they all discourage their students from pursuing higher secular education. When I was growing up in the 1950s and 60s, my father, a chassidishe Yid who was administrator in an American litvish yeshiva, worked together with the roshei yeshivah to convince parents not to send their sons to college. The results speak for themselves. There are many talmidei chachamim today, products of this and other yeshivos worldwide, who are enriching the world with harbatzas haTorah. This would never have resulted from a college education.

I know one prominent rosh yeshivah who, as a young yeshiva student, took a few nationwide scholarship tests. He scored so high that several Ivy League colleges offered him full scholarships.

He opted instead to pursue a life of Torah study, and today he is raising a beautiful Torah’dig family and spending his life being marbitz Torah. This is what our gedolim advised us as a general rule. It was remiss not to mention this in the article.

Dear Neighbor, Living in close quarters means we often share more than walls; we share moments, sounds and rhythms of life. I’ve been reflecting on this as I navigate the balance of being a good neighbor and mensch while cherishing my own family’s joy.

I want to start by saying how much I admire you. From what I’ve seen, you’re an amazing mother, always engaged with your children. You’re a pleasant friend, too, from the warm conversations I’ve overheard with other neighborhood mothers. Your energy and positivity are inspiring.

Can I ask for your perspective on something that’s been on my mind?

During the week, when music plays loudly in your home, I often find myself needing to retreat to the back of my apartment. Our layouts are so similar that when music fills your kitchen, it feels as though it’s in mine as well. I wonder if you’re aware of how far the sound carries, and how it might

affect those living around you.

And during candle lighting, I clearly hear the joyful dancing in your dining room. It’s a beautiful expression of happiness, and I can imagine how meaningful it must be for your family. At the same time, my dining room is directly below yours, and I’ve found myself cutting my tefillos short — during this personal and cherished time for every Yiddishe mother — because of the noise overhead. I wonder if we could find a way to balance these special moments so that everyone can fully enjoy them.

When the children clatter up the stairs on late summer nights, their laughter echoing against the walls, do you hear it as I do? My children’s bedroom is right there, and sometimes they wake up, startled. As a fellow parent, I’m sure you can imagine how much we appreciate those precious hours of sleep and how chaotic it gets when two or three kids are woken.

Recently, when someone was jumping on the trampoline late at night, was it a moment of release after a long day? I can understand the need for that — to let loose and enjoy — but I wonder if you realized that it woke my sick baby who had only just fallen asleep after some hours in pain. I’m sure it wasn’t intentional, but it left me feeling frazzled.

As an “upstairs neighbor” myself, I’ve tried to instill certain habits in my kids. For example, they know not to use certain noisy toys in the dining room over Shabbos and to keep their music low any time of day. I’m far from perfect, and we still have our moments, but I try because I know how much these things matter in shared spaces.

Do you think we could find a way to make this work better for all of us?

I’m writing not to accuse or blame, but to open a door to understanding.

I believe we all want the same thing: a home filled with joy, comfort and respect for those around us. Could we find that balance together?

With warm regards, A Neighbor

Most afternoons, I try having cut-up fruits and vegetables on the table set out in an appealing manner.

I love watching my kids hungrily grab and consume cut-up apples, blueberries, grapes, baby carrots, snap peas and mini peppers. On days I don’t manage this, the kids default to cookies and potato chips after school. – A Reader

I try to keep the healthier snacks front and center of the pantry so it’s easier to access than their less-healthy counterparts. – A Reader

Serve every meal with some fresh veggies and chummus as a dip. If you have leftover cut-up vegetables, don’t put it away; keep on the counter for yourself as a go-to for mindless munching. If it’s in front of you, you’ll grab a carrot stick instead of a cake. – A Reader

I buy ready-packaged nut snack bags and cheese snack bags to make healthful snacking simple and easily accessible. – Miriam

Don’t offer your child an apple, orange or carrot. Instead, offer apple slices, orange segments and carrot sticks. Having the food items peeled, sliced and ready to eat is a huge game-changer. – R.S.

Instead of making salads, I prepare a salad bar and invite my kids to create their own salads.

It’s amazing to observe how, given the liberty to “choose,” they happily consume their veggies. – N.S.

Healthy eating? I never say the word healthy. Instead, I talk about all the beautiful colors and tastes of fruits and vegetables that Hashem made for us to enjoy. My health education at home consists of the following concept: The closer it is to the way Hashem made it, the better it is for us. Meaning, less words, less labels. It’s incredible how it actually is all kids need to know about healthy eating. – A Reader

I try to involve my kids in grocery shopping and spend time in the produce aisle, marveling aloud at the variety and the yummy tastes available. Who knows, maybe it’ll rub off on them? – Yitty

I have a healthy-snack-only policy after supper. This includes delicious herbal teas, fruits, nuts or air-popped popcorn. – A Reader

PARSHAS BESHALACH Splitting the Sea

Y. Levenstein

In this week’s parsha, Bnei Yisroel encountered the monumental miracle of Kriyas Yam Suf. Chazal famously state (Sotah 2a), “ Kasheh

zivugan shel adam k’kriyas Yam Suf,” finding one’s mate is as difficult as the splitting of the sea. What is the comparison between

shidduchim and splitting the sea?

before we see our personal salvation, and not wait until it takes place. Even while Another question: The shirah that Klal Yisroel sang waiting for a yeshuah, we should be so certain that Hashem will help, that we can in praise of Hashem after exiting the sea was, “Az already begin to sing. yashir Moshe” — then Moshe will sing (Shemos This plays itself out very strongly in the area of shidduchim, where we often feel 15:1). Why is the word “ yashir ” in future tense? It blinded and lost, wondering from where should be past tense, “then Moshe sang.” one’s zivug will come. Yet even when nothing seems to be working out, whether there is no shidduch on the horizon or the answer is consistently “no,” we should be WHEN BNEI YISROEL arrived at the Yam Suf, they found ready to sing. Hashem will lead us to the right shidduch. Hashthemselves in a predicament.

Moshe Rabbeinu was mechazek them: “Have no fear! * * * * * Stand strong and watch the yeshuah Hashem will do for you…”

Mr. Hershy Gold* shared the following story.

Moshe held off; he did not sing yet, but waited until after Kriyas Yam Suf. Then the Yidden reached the very high level of being able to sing shirah — much as His son Moshe was a nice boy, but Moshe had been even before the miracle.

“The phone is simply silent.”

My heart went out to him. “Let me try to think of something,” I promised, without even having a concrete idea of where I would turn.

Shmuel’s face lit up. He opened his wallet and took out three crisp one-hundred dollar bills. “Here’s some shadchanus,” he said as he handed me the money.

“But I didn’t even suggest anything yet!” I protested.

Shmuel explained that this was a move of emunah on his part. He sincerely believed I would be the shaliach that would finally bring about the shidduch. “This is just the first installment,” he concluded.

I took the money and put it aside, hoping it would indeed turn into a shadchanus payment.

Several days later, a friend of mine invited me to the pidyon haben of his grandson. I promised to attend, but several things came up in my schedule that day, and I was running late. I looked at my watch and wondered if there was still a point in going. The least I can do is say mazel tov, I thought to myself as I made my way to the hall.

Sure enough, I found the hall empty. But my friend and his family were still there — packing up the remnants of the sweet table as they prepared to leave. When my friend saw me, he immediately pulled over a chair so we could drink a l’chaim. As we sat and talked, a young bachur, who seemed to be about 20, walked over. He stretched out his hand and wished my friend mazel tov.

“Mazel tov to you!” my friend boomed in return. “I was so happy to hear you got engaged! Wow! The first einikel…”

The new chasan looked happy, but shook his head.

“You’re touching a sore point,” he said. “My grandfather still has a daughter to marry off… My aunt is several years older than me, and everyone was hoping she would get engaged before me. It’s a bit uncomfortable for me to get married before my older aunt. It’ll cause her so much pain…”

The shadchan bulb inside me immediately flickered on.

“One minute! Tell me about your aunt! Maybe I have an idea for her. You never know, she might still get married before you!”

“Halevai!” the chasan replied. “That would make my own simcha complete.”

He proceeded to share details about his aunt and family, and I jotted down some phone numbers. That very evening, I made some phone calls.

Amazingly, when this young chasan walked to the chuppah several months later, his aunt was there — along with her new husband. And the $300 that I had put aside indeed turned into part of my shadchanus compensation! * * * * *

“Az yashir Moshe” — let’s sing shirah right now, even while we’re still waiting. The yeshuah is certainly just ahead. *Names have been changed.

A Wonderful Segulah for Salvation Prepare 18 candles along with a Tehillim (some add 18 small coins in honor of Rabbi Meir Baal HaNess).

Follow the procedure as outlined: Light one candle in memory of the holy tanna, R’ Masya ben Charash (some also donate a small coin to charity in memory of the holy tanna, R’ Meir Baal HaNess). Then, pray in the merit of the holy tanna, R ‘Masya ben Charash, that your prayers be accepted. Recite chapter 86 from Tehillim, “Tefil-

lah l’dovid...” (that is said daily before the Shir Shel Yom).

Repeat the process again: Light a second candle in memory of the holy tanna, R’ Masya ben Charash (some also donate a small coin to charity in memory of the holy tanna, R’ Meir Baal HaNess). Pray in the merit of R’ Masya

ben Charash that your prayers be accepted. Recite chapter 86 from Tehillim, “Tefillah l’dovid...” (that is said daily before the Shir Shel Yom).

Continue this process 18 times until all 18 candles are lit.

Afterwards, recite the letters from “Kr’a Satan” (‫ )קר”ע שט”ן‬from chapter 119 from Tehillim.

Pray to Hakadosh Baruch Hu for one request, that in the merit of the holy tanna, R’ Masya ben Charash (and in the merit of the charity for the holy tanna, R’ Meir Baal HaNess) and in the merit of the prayers, you should be granted the salvation you seek.

And pledge to publicize this segulah upon receiving the anticipated outcome

Wieder Shares Family Story With Assembly on Holocaust Remembrance Day An emotional Aron Wieder got personal during his first formal address to the New York State Assembly last week, bringing the Holocaust to life for his fellow legislators in a powerful way.

Wieder’s address took place on January 27, Holocaust Remembrance Day, 80 years to the day after the liberation of Auschwitz. The grandson of four Holocaust survivors, two of whom were held in Auschwitz during World War II, Wieder discussed the importance of making the words “never again” a firm commitment in the fight against antisemitism, particularly in the wake of October 7.

Telling the Assembly how his grandfather had never wanted him to return to Europe, Wieder shared that he’d felt compelled to call his grandfather, Yonasan Binyomin Farkas, from Auschwitz on his first visit there. Recovering from his initial surprise, Farkas instructed his grandson to say out loud “Yonasan leibt,” which the assemblyman translated for his colleagues as “Jonas is alive.”

Puzzled at first by the request, since there was no one there to speak to, Wieder did as he was told, only to be instructed to repeat the words again, but this time more loudly. Wieder complied, only to be told again to say it even more loudly.

“At that point, standing between the barracks of Auschwitz, amidst the solemn ground of that notorious place, I found myself screaming at the top of my lungs, ‘Yonasan leibt! Jonas is alive! Jonas is alive!’” recalled Wieder.

Continuing his address, Wieder shared how his grandfather built a beautiful life and raised a family in America, and had even survived to see his progeny elected to the state legislature. Emphasizing the need to remember the thousands of communities destroyed and millions of lives lost, Wieder spoke about the importance of honoring their memories and fighting against hate.

Wieder told The Monsey View that he was surprised by the feedback he received on his speech, with some of his colleagues expressing their appreciation, and others saying that his words gave them goosebumps.

“This outpouring of support and response to this is beyond what I could’ve imagined,” said Wieder. “It’s been two days later, and I still get that, walking in the halls of Albany.”

Assemblyman Simcha Eichenstein also addressed the Assembly on Holocaust Remembrance Day. Like Wieder, all of Eichenstein’s grandparents are Holocaust survivors, and he spoke about the need to educate the younger generation about the horrors of World War II, noting that two-thirds of those be142

tween the ages of 29 and 44 have no knowledge of Auschwitz and what transpired there.

“Eighty years ago, hate and bias led to horrific atrocities against the Jewish people, and nobody spoke up,” concluded Eichenstein. “It’s eighty years later. Let’s stand united to make sure that it never happens again.”

News Goes From Bad to Worse as Egg Prices Continue to Rise Bird flu continues to wreak havoc on the price of eggs, with no end in sight. Prices continue their upward trend as the busy Purim and Pesach cooking season draws near.

According to the United States Department of Agriculture, the price of a dozen large grade-A eggs was $4.16 in December, up 56 cents over November and 79 cents since October. Those prices were 8.4% higher than the same period last year. The numbers in New York were clearly different from national averages, with retailers paying a wholesale price of $7.24 for a dozen large eggs in the week ending January 24. Prices are lower in the Midwest, where eggs have been selling at $6.49 a dozen, while California residents are shelling out $8.35 a carton While inflation has had prices rising across the board, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said that the Biden administration was to blame for the high prices of “everything,” not just eggs, with egg prices rising 65% in 2024. According to Leavitt, the USDA’s killing of more than 100 million chickens under the Biden administration to prevent the spread

of bird flu led to a shortage of chickens that has drastically limited the country’s egg supply.

Not surprisingly, the increased price of eggs doesn’t affect only the price of actual eggs. Consumers can expect to see the higher cost passed along to them in grocery stores, eateries and restaurants in items that include eggs in their ingredients.

Having promised voters that he would lower their costs of living, President Donald Trump has been taking heat for rising prices. The USDA has said that it expects egg prices to rise 20.3% by the end of the year. A consumer alert issued on January 29 by New York State Attorney General Letitia James warned egg sellers that price gouging would not be tolerated.

“Eggs are an essential grocery staple in households across the state, and New Yorkers should not pay ludicrous amounts just to feed their families,” said James. “The bird flu is affecting poultry farms and causing a national shortage, but this should not be an excuse for businesses to dramatically raise prices.”

New Yorkers are encouraged to report any incidents of excessive prices to James’ office at 800-771-7755, including price increases, dates and places where the price gouging was seen, and to provide any sales receipts or pictures of advertised prices. Violators could be facing penalties that run as high as $25,000 per violation.

At Long Last, Montvale Service Area Reopens on GSP More than six months after its original target date, the Garden State Parkway’s James Gandolfini service station area in Montvale is open once again, much to the relief of Monsey residents who have long utilized the facility.

area began in 2023 and were expected to be completed by the beginning of last summer. Contaminants that were discovered in the soil during construction put the entire project on hold until the situation could be remedied.

All of the Garden State Parkway and the New Jersey Turnpike rest stops have been either renovated or replaced, part of a 2017 $250 million project launched by then-governor Chris Christie.

In addition to offering gas, snacks and restrooms, the Montvale service area was a popular place for Monsey bochurim looking for rides to yeshivas in other communities.

ICE Agents Spotted in Monsey President Donald Trump’s promise to rid the country of illegal immigrants was felt close to home last week, with officers from the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Enforcement and Removal Operations team paying a visit to a local warehouse.

Video footage showed the two officers knocking on the door of a local business at 8:30 a.m. on the morning of January 29. The agents were reportedly looking for a specific person, and left when they were unable to locate that individual.

Power Up: O&R Announces Historic EV Charger Project ICE has been reportedly arresting as many as 600 to 1,100 illegal immigrants daily since Trump was inaugurated as the nation’s 47th president on January 20.

Mystery Drones Posed No Threat, Says White House Alarm bells rang back in December after a multitude of drones were spotted flying in New Jersey and other East Coast locations, but according to President Donald Trump, those worries were unfounded.

CBS News reported that the Federal Bureau of Investigation took the lead in solving the mystery of the unidentified drones, some of which were sighted over the president’s Bedminster golf course and near military bases.

Giving her first official White House briefing, press secretary Karoline Leavitt said that the large number of drones spotted were all authorized by the Federal Aviation Administration. Some were being used for research, while others were being piloted by private individuals or hobbyists for recreational purposes.

“In time, it got worse due to curiosity,” said Leavitt. “This

Infusing hope.

The place is serene.

A peaceful oasis of compassion, hope and healing amidst the hustle and bustle of the RefuahHealth main location. A side entrance, away from the crowds, leads into a completely separate private wing.

The spaces are beautifully designed and optimized for the privacy and comfort of the patients.

The atmosphere is calm and pleasant. The sta� is caring, warm and respectful. It’s everything you would expect to see at the Refuah Infusion Center led by the inimitable Dr. Azriel Hirschfeld.

FEATURING: DR. AZRIEL HIRSCHFELD MD. BRINGING HOPE, HEALING AND THE HIGHEST STANDARDS OF CARE TO PATIENTS.

Seeing how di�cult and draining this was, RefuahHealth knew something had to be done to make things easier for these brave �ghters.

Always looking to provide patients with the highest level of care, RefuahHealth reached out to world-renowned Oncologist Dr. Azriel Hirschfeld. They asked him to lead and guide RefuahHealth in opening an Infusion Center at their main location in New Square that will provide patients locally with the high standard of care they deserve.

It didn’t take long for Dr. Hirschfeld, who is famous for both his expertise in the �eld and limitless dedication to his patients to agree.

Dr. Azriel Hirschfeld

When I asked Dr. Hirschfeld what drew him to pursue a career in a di�cult �eld such as Oncology, his answer was extremely telling of the kind of person and doctor he is.

“Although it can be emotionally heavy, there’s a real opportunity to make a di�erence and help people. I can guide them and advocate for their wellbeing at a time when they can use all the help they can get.” Dr. Hirschfeld explained.

“Professionally, it is also a rapidly developing �eld. There are constantly new treatment options becoming available which allows for renewed hope and new options for patients.”

The Refuah Infusion Center.

The Refuah Infusion Center was founded to make it easier for patients coping with a di�cult illness to get the treatments they need. Until recently, if a patient wanted to receive chemotherapy at a top quality facility that provides the highest standards of care, they had to go through the exhausting ordeal of going into NY each time, for every single treatment, sometimes several times a week.

Dr. Hirschfeld started his career in Oncology, healing patients under the guidance and mentorship of the legendary Dr. Bruckner. After 10 years of working with Dr. Bruckner and studying his unique approach to treatment, Dr. Hirschfeld earned a name for himself in the industry as a leading Oncologist who explores cutting edge developments in the �eld and tries to �nd new options to treat patients with even di�cult forms of the disease. He is renowned as a doctor who is willing to explore new treatment protocols including clinical trials, if he feels it can bene�t his patients.

Dr. Hirschfeld eventually opened his own private clinic, The Hirschfeld Oncology Center, which quickly earned a stellar reputation as a leading clinic in the �eld. In

order to treat the large volume of patients turning to the clinic for help, Dr Hirschfeld eventually trained his sta� to work under his guidance this way enabling him to help more patients.

What’s unique about Dr. Hirschfeld is that despite the success and rapid growth of his practice, he is still personally involved in every case. He treats his patients with unusual warmth and dedication, caring for them as if they would be friends and family.

To him, it’s not just charts, numbers and results.

He listens to everything the patient has to say, reviews the �les and develops a customized treatment protocol. He takes into account the patient’s unique circumstances and medical needs and does everything in his power to not only cure them with Hashem’s help, but also make the whole ordeal easier to bear.

It wasn’t only Dr. Hirschfeld’s exceptional track record in successfully treating even the most di�cult cases that prompted RefuahHealth to reach out to him to lead and establish the Infusion center. It was the heart, warmth and caring with which he treats every patient, as he gently guides them through the process, secure in the knowledge that they’re being treated by a doctor who genuinely cares about them and their wellbeing.

A new reality.

Refuah’s goal with opening the Infusion Center was clear. They were determined to o�er a service to the community and make things easier for those �ghting a di�cult disease. Every patient, no matter who they are and who is treating them, can now arrange with their doctor to receive their treatments locally at the Refuah Infusion Center.

A unique center for healing.

“When it comes to infusion centers there isn’t usually much room for innovation.” Dr Hirschfeld explains.

There’s the standard equipment and sta� that every infusion center has; hospital beds, comfortable armchairs, some basic medical equipment, quali�ed nurses who can administer the chemotherapy to the patients, and doctors who can monitor and supervise treatment.

“Yet, RefuahHealth still found a way to create a better experience for their patients.” admires Dr. Hirschfeld.

The atmosphere at the infusion center is calm, private and as pleasant as possible. They’ve thoughtfully provided anything a patient could possibly want or need; food, hot and cold drinks, reading material, seforim, books, music, entertainment and more. If there’s something that could make the ordeal more bearable for patients, it’s there.

When we spoke to Dr. Hirschfeld, he shared with us how amazed he was at the vision and dedication of the RefuahHealth administration.

He pointed out that health centers, especially large ones, are usually run like big corporations with one goal in mind - to make more money. But not RefuahHealth.

A need to do more.

“I discovered a new reality.” Dr. Hirschfeld shared. “ A health center that despite operating on a large scale still has only one goal - to provide better care for their patients and make things easier for them.”

“I honestly didn’t know what to answer.” Dr. Hirschfeld tells us.

“When RefuahHealth �rst reached out to me,” reveals Dr. Hirschfeld, “The request was as follows:”

"We have numerous patients who live in the Monsey and the surrounding area who despite being ill, have no choice but to spend hours and hours commuting to the city every time to receive their prescribed chemotherapy treatments. These patients are su�ering enough without the added hassle and discomfort of traveling all the time. We need to do something about this to make things easier for them.’”

Dr. Hirschfeld recounts that one day one of the administrators of RefuahHealth came into his o�ce and asked him a question he found strange:

“What else can we do to make things easier for our patients?” the administrator asked him.

“You’re already doing everything possible for your patients.” Dr. Hirschfeld told the administrator. “You’ve made sure that your patients have a comfortable, pleasant place where they can get their treatments, close to home, sparing them a grueling commute into the city. What else can you possibly do?”

“I have an idea…” The administrator told Dr. Hirschfeld. “As you know, patients need to take a blood test before they can get their infusion and that takes time. They have to wait here until it’s sent to the lab and the results come back, and only then can they get their treatment. How about we send someone to their home to do the

blood test there so that by the time the patient gets to the Infusion Center they can get started with the treatment right away and get home faster…?”

“I was stunned.” recounts Dr. Hirschfeld.

“You can really do that?” Dr. Hirschfeld asked the administrator.

“Of course!” he replied. “Why can’t we do it for them?”

The very next day, it became standard practice at the Refuah Infusion Center for all patients to get the special service of having someone come to their home to get their bloodwork done in advance.

Better care for all.

Some have wondered if the Refuah Infusion Center is only for Dr. Hirschfeld’s patients or if patients being treated by other doctors can also bene�t from this service.

The answer is that any patient can receive their treatments at the Refuah Infusion Center if their doctor agrees. Dr. Hirschfeld and the sta� will work with any doctor to provide the best care possible for the patient.

The doctor can send his exact prescription and directions to the Infusion Center and the treatment will be administered according to his instructions.

As soon as the infusion is completed, the patient will be given all the information to pass on to their doctor, or it can be sent directly to the doctor through RefuahHealth.

For those interested, Dr. Hirschfeld has an o�ce at RefuahHealth where he follows patients and can be contacted for private consultations.

Innovative care.

Challenging the status quo and bringing about much needed change is never easy. It takes leaders and innovators like RefuahHealth to identify a need and with their singular focus on providing the very best care for every patient, �nd the right solution. The Refuah Infusion Center is a testament to RefuahHealth’s dedication to the community and their passionate desire to make things easier for every single patient on their road to recovery.

erela stared at the surgery status board in the waiting area. The boards were designed to ease the families’ anxiety, but judging from all the people getting stiff necks staring anxiously at them, she didn’t think it actually worked.

Her mother’s ID number was the fourth from the top.

It blinked a monotonous green, indicating she was still in surgery. The doctors had assured Perela that the surgery was short, but the pre-op and post-op would take some time.

The Tehillim remained unopened on her lap. It sat heavily, like her load of guilt.

Funny how she’d never been big on guilt. Her brothers had teased her mercilessly as a kid, claiming she had no care in the world, and how would she ever get married if she was so worry-free?

Were they happy now that her entire life was an endless carousel of guilt? If one bundle of guilt went down, the other came right up.

She felt guilty if she spent too much time with her mother at the expense of her family, guilty if she went back to her family and spent less time with her mother. But all those guilt bundles paled in comparison to the guilt she was feeling ever since Ezriel had chapter

spoken to her this morning.

It was Aseres Yemei Teshuvah, and she so badly wanted to daven, but she was simply too emotionally spent to concentrate. More guilt.

One bundle up. One bundle down.

Why was she thinking of carousels now?

When they were young, Chol Hamoed was not a time for trips. Her father spent the time learning, and her brothers attended whatever Chol Hamoed program their cheder had to offer. But for Perela, the youngest, the rules changed. One year they’d even ventured all the way to Van Suan Park, a seventeen-minute drive.

The Handlers arrived and were shocked to find all of Klal Yisroel there. Perela had been delighted with the carousel and promptly headed for that line. Her brothers scowled at the long line, calling her a baby.

So her father stayed with her while her brothers went to check out the measly assortment of monkeys with her mother and Kaily. The minute she’d come down from the ride, she announced, “I want to go again.” Her father had indulged her again and again.

WERE THEY HAPPY NOW THAT HER ENTIRE LIFE WAS AN ENDLESS CAROUSEL OF GUILT? IF ONE BUNDLE OF GUILT WENT DOWN, THE OTHER CAME RIGHT UP

had driven her and her mother to the hospital this morning; the menahel had offered to supervise his class so he could do that. They were quiet in the early morning stillness as she dropped off Yanky at the babysitter.

Ezriel made a right turn onto her mother’s block and kept his eyes on the road as he said, “I see this job is important to you. I told you what I think. But do whatever you want. I won’t stop you.”

Ugh. Double ugh.

She wasn’t twelve anymore, and she didn’t want to be treated like a bratty preteen.

Now, in the waiting room, she stood up from the hard plastic chair and paced the little area. Her phone pinged.

Ordered this sweatshirt from Ali for my girls.

Would you believe it?

Instead of the word Hi! it says Moschino!

Check out this link.

It was from Minky, a woman she’d met at the kiosk. They’d become friends one night as they were both sitting in neighboring cubicles. She’d overheard Perela’s hushed conversation. Shh… I’m at the kiosk. Can you send me the link for that coat you ordered?

Minky had knocked on the little window and asked for the link, too.

Perela had been enamored by the woman’s easy and open nature, and they’d become buddies, hunting for metzias side by side.

But now she had more sweatshirts for her kids than days to wear them. Classy Prance bags were currently claiming all the real estate in her in-between-seasons closet. Tziri had dropped off bags of samples and a couple of bestsellers “as a token of appreciation. Cuz I never had such a successful season.” In fact, she could outfit all of Minky’s kids, too.

Her chest expanded with pleasure. See? She could help Minky.

She wanted the job so badly. How could she explain this feeling to her husband? Every time she smelled the gently perfumed clothes in Prance, a part of her brain expanded.

SHE WANTED THE JOB SO BADLY. HOW COULD SHE EXPLAIN THIS FEELING TO HER HUSBAND? EVERY TIME SHE SMELLED THE GENTLY PERFUMED CLOTHES IN PRANCE, A PART OF HER BRAIN EXPANDED She’d floated through life riding the mezinikel ride. It usually served her well.

Until it came to sleepovers.

Her parents firmly forbade that one treat. She knew it was a boundary not to be crossed. Until her friend, Hindy, had invited her to a bas mitzvah party sleepover.

She’d wheedled and begged, sure her pleas would be heard. She threatened not to come out of her room, ever, and told her parents they were the worst, and if they were younger, they would understand.

More guilt.

“A bas mitzvah is a special birthday. Not a time for sleepovers,” her father had said.

But she’d gone on and on. “I won’t have a single friend left if I don’t go.”

Finally, exasperated, her mother had raised her voice, and said, “You heard what we have to say. Now do whatever you want.”

She’d packed her bag quickly, and left the house without wishing her mother good night.

The sour sticks at the party had tasted especially sour.

She’d never asked again.

She felt the same way now. Ezriel 156

Why did she feel like she’d just swallowed a sour stick whole? * * * * *

Since Kaily was awake anyway, she silenced the alarm before it rang.

Who knew that a cellphone could store so many scheduled alarms?

She wheeled her office chair to the counter and grabbed the bottle of eye drops.

to get some more sleep, Ma, because in another three hours, it’s time for these drops again. And that’s it. Tomorrow night, no more drops.”

“You could become a night nurse,” her mother said wryly. “I feel so bad you have to wake up for me.”

“I’m still up working, Ma. So don’t worry.” She gently covered her mother.

Her mother resisted her, and she sat up in bed. “You’re still working?

That’s crazy!”

Duh. “Don’t worry, I’ll nap tomorrow.”

Her mother snorted. “No, you won’t. It’s Wednesday tomorrow.”

Kaily hadn’t forgotten.

There was also an intake with the aqua therapist when they got home, and Sruly was coming home from yeshiva for Yom Tov. So far, there was no sukkah standing, and she’d have to help Sruly with it. All in a day’s work.

All without Mira’s support.

Her mother looked at her determinedly. “This has to stop. You’re working too hard.”

Kaily waved it away. “It’s fine. Tonight is the last night for drops. And, besides, we shouldn’t be having this conversation now. You’re supposed to sleep!”

But her mother didn’t seem to be listening to her. She was still sitting in her bed, which was a good sign; it meant her hip wasn’t so painful anymore.

Please, Hashem, let her not bring up Mira again.

“You work too hard!” her mother repeated.

Kaily agreed, just so her mother would agree to lie down.

It didn’t help, though.

“You know?” she said, turning to Kaily but not quite meeting her eyes.

“Perela is starting a job. A reasonable job,” she added quickly. “I’m happy I told her to take it.”

Was she so tired that she was hallucinating?

“Perela took a job?!” Kaily asked.

She couldn’t keep the shock from her voice.

She could probably use some eye drops herself. Her eyes were dry and itchy from staring at the computer screen for so many hours. But what could she do? Payroll had to be done so the employees at Pin Properties could be paid on time over Sukkos.

After Yom Tov, she hoped, things would calm down. Everyone’s schedule would clear up, she would sit down with the family, and come up with a long-term plan.

Because this — this round-theclock schedule — was not sustainable.

Kaily saved her work and hurried upstairs to her mother.

“Ma?” she coaxed gently. Poor Ma, she’d just fallen asleep.

Her mother opened her eyes.

“Is it three hours already?” she asked hoarsely.

“It is,” Kaily said cheerily, imitating Emily, the night nurse her mother had loved at the hospital.

She held her mother’s eye open carefully.

“One. Two. Three,” Kaily counted aloud as she inserted the eye drops.

She fixed Roiza’s snood and dabbed at her eye with a clean cloth to absorb the excess liquid.

“What time is it?” her mother asked.

“Three o’clock,” Kaily said, still using that faux cheery voice. “Try

The premise and promise of chomesh CHAPTER 3 OF 4 A H U V A

G A N T R Y

Rav Orenstein, Yaakov’s Rosh Yeshivah, wasn’t only behind our decision to give chomesh. He was also the one supporting our decision to drop what was then referred to as food stamps.

It was renewal season, and even though we were eligible for food stamps, there was some tiny rearranging of cheshbonos that was necessary to get approved. And I didn’t like it.

“Look,” I told Yaakov. “If we believe that Hashem determined on Rosh Hashanah exactly what we would earn this year, and we believe that there’s no way Hashem ‘forgot’ to count our food stamps benefits as part of our income, then why should we try so hard to get these benefits? Hashem wants emes, and if we don’t reapply for benefits, I’m sure He’ll give us our bashert income a different way.”

Yaakov agreed wholeheartedly. But before we took this step, he went to consult with Rav Orenstein to get his opinion on the matter. Was there another way to look at it? After all, Yaakov was still in kollel most of the day, and we really could use the money.

Rav Orenstein’s answer was unequivocal. Whatever was bashert for us would anyhow come our way, and sticking to pure emes would only bring us bracha.

A few weeks later, Yaakov got a great offer. A talmid chacham asked him to review his shiur every morning, and since this was material Yaakov was learning anyway, it

hardly required any effort at all, and it brought in slightly more money than our food stamps had.

We haven’t received food stamps since, and somehow, even with food prices shooting up along with our evergrowing kids, the tab at the grocery has never become an issue. At first, it was like learning how to swim without any aids, but there was sweetness to the simplicity of depending on our fully kosher income to pay our way. * * * * *

As time passed and our family grew, the nisayon of giving chomesh continued to be a struggle. Even though dropping our commitment was an option that neither I nor Yaakov ever wanted to consider, the meaning of “one-fifth” became starkly clear when checks arrived.

A $1,000 check coming our way? Oh, wait, it’s down to $800, so we can’t count on the full $1,000.

It’s like our mental calculator was being primed to snip off the top of whatever income came in.

Yaakov and I began appreciating checks that spilled over the straight $1,000 or $2,000 by a few hundred dol-

reminds me that Hashem has a plan for that, too. lars. That felt like we could have our cake and eat it too!

“You think He’ll only help us raise our kids — and then Isn’t that silly? We knew chomesh brings us bracha, so He’ll drop us off the deep end? He’ll always be with us.” why sweat those few hundred dollars? But somehow, that’s But still, it’s a challenge to remember it, and a zechus to the way it was. If there’d be no challenge, there’d be no keep trying. zechus.

Yaakov once overheard a conversation in Shomer Shabbos in Boro Park while he was taking off his tefillin after * * * * * davening. Two men were standing near his table, and one was saying, “If I’d pick up a dime, I’d give two pennies of Around that time, we began acknowledging the fact that. But it’s sheker! It doesn’t work. It’s sheker!” that we were outgrowing our home. We knew a move This piqued Yaakov’s interest, and he followed the man would stretch us financially, but by now we were adamant: and asked if he indeed gives chomesh.

Chomesh was non-negotiable.

“For the last ten years!” the man replied. “But it doesn’t What remained to be seen was how it would all work work!” out.

A bit shaken, Yaakov approached the other man, the one TO BE CONTINUE D… the chomesh-giver had been talking to earlier and a guy Yaakov knew in passing. There are some areas in halacha where it’s well known that if people are lax, bracha can’t come forth, and Yaakov wanted to do his duty of defending the reality of chomesh.

The palindrome of “v’nasnu” teaches us that one never loses “You know,” Yaakov said conversationally, “we can’t know the whole story. I don’t know out by giving maaser; it always comes back (Shemos 30:12, that man from Adam, but chomesh definitely see Baal Haturim). But giving chomesh comes with an even works!” greater promise: one of wealth (Keser Rosh 123).

The man burst out laughing. “Oh, and Do all people who give chomesh see wealth? No. But if they how! That man is very well off. He was just open their eyes, they all see an extra dose of bracha. Addicomplaining that he can’t afford to buy a pritionally, the Chofetz Chaim says that one never knows if the vate jet with cash…”

So everyone has their challenges. And wealth that never came served as protection for the person whenever Yaakov and I think the same — we giving tzedakah (Al Hatorah, p. 259). give chomesh, but we’re not wealthy — we try There’s always space for bechirah when giving chomesh. An to tell ourselves this: What, exactly, does rich automatic, obvious dispense of wealth would hardly present mean? Baruch Hashem, we own our house, afan opportunity to stretch those emunah muscles. Nonetheford our life and don’t generally have debt. If less, this topic is a great one to discuss with your rav. that doesn’t mean rich, then what does?

Then I start panicking about marrying off our kids, and about retirement, and Yaakov

A Revelation for Klal Yisrael B’acharis Hayamim THE TZION OF THE TZADDIK HAMEKUBAL RABBEINU YITZCHAK BAR YITZCHAK GAVRA ZT”L IN AGUR ERETZ YISROEL Countless Yidden flock to the resting place of the po’el yeshuos experiencing salvations beyond comprehension

A Miraculous Real Estate Deal Approximately a year ago, a young man from Kiryas Yoel contacted his close friend in Yerushalayim—a former resident of Monsey—to discuss a potential, huge financial loss. He owned a building in New York where the local inspector had imposed severe penalties, leading to the building’s value plummeting.

In response, he asked his friend in Yerushalayim to pray at the tzaddik of Yemen’s resting place. He promised that if he received a yeshuah, he would publicize the tzaddik’s name and the location of his holy resting place to Yidden in America who were unaware of it.

Shortly thereafter, he experienced an extraordinary yeshuah, selling the building for several million dollars.

Who Was R’ Yitzchak bar Yitzchak Gavra zt”l?

The biography and righteous deeds of the tzaddik is too vast for one article. There is so much to tell—starting from his youth in Yemen and continuing onward in Eretz Yisrael. We will briefly touch on a few insights regarding his greatness in Torah and prayer.

He possessed an extraordinary memory and was a great scholar in both the revealed and hidden aspects of Torah. Among other things, he knew the entire Shisha Sidrei Mishnah and the entire Mishneh Torah of the Rambam by heart. Every week, the holy tzaddik would complete the entire Tehillim 26 times—the numerical value of the Divine Name Havayah. In his later years, when his eyesight weakened, he recited it all from memory, as he did with the chapters of Mishnayos that he studied daily.

His Remarkable Passing At the age of 85, he had predicted details about his passing, instructing that he should be buried near his house under the large carob tree. He added: “You will leave this place (it turned out that the old residents would later leave and others would come), and this will be a sign for my burial place.”

Following his instructions, R’ Yitzchak Gavra said, “I will depart from this world on Friday and be buried bein hashmashos - and it will rain during the burial, (even though it was Tammuz (summer) when it doesn’t usually rain in Eretz Yisrael).” Everything happened exactly as he predicted. On the 21st of Tammuz 5717 (1957), during the funeral, there

‫בס ”ד‬

was heavy rain, fulfilling the chazal ‫הי’ גשמים מזלפין‬ ‫( על מיטתו סימן יפה לו‬when it rains on his coffin, it is a good sign for the deceased).

He also told his righteous wife that ninety days after his passing, she would be called to yeshivah shel maaleh. Indeed, exactly ninety days later, she passed away and was buried next to him.

The Power of Holiness Triumphed After his passing, the government authorities discovered that someone had been buried in a private yard without permission.

Over the course of several days, officers from the feared Magav (border police) descended to Agur with the intention of exhuming the body. All their attempts failed when they were seriously wounded.

Over the years, the tzaddik’s burial place and that of his righteous wife were abandoned. The community residents - that changed from Yemenite Yidden to Yidden of Kurdish descent - didn’t know about the holy site. It became overgrown with grass and stones. Later, others unknowingly dug there with tractors, but miraculously, the site remained undisturbed.

The Grave Revealed in a Dream The rediscovery of his holy resting place came about through a remarkable dream experienced by one of the neighborhood’s residents. In the dream, the tzaddik appeared and said: “My name is Yitzchak Gavra, I lie under the carob tree near your house. Don’t be afraid. Stay here and watch over my grave, and as a sign, your daughter who has been waiting for children for years will be blessed with three children.” This prophecy came true within three years!

When word spread about the revelation of the tzaddik’s grave, there was an apikores

who sought to disprove it. One day he took his horse and tied it to the carob tree to demonstrate his skepticism. Again, Rabbi Yitzchak Gavra appeared in a dream to the same resident, saying: “Tell him to stop this because he has entered my four cubits (sacred space).”

The message was conveyed to the apikores, but as a skeptic, he ignored it and again brought his horse to the tree. On the third day, an astonishing scene unfolded - the horse rose into the air and was thrown to the ground, once and again until it died. When the young man returned home, he found his family members trembling like reeds in water. Notably, the neighborhood Yidden relate that animals refrain from walking on that plot of land.

A Gift for Yidden Great rabbis say about the revelation of these new holy sites that Yidden discover and from which they achieve great salvations, and about newly discovered segulahs in general, that this is a wondrous revelation of rachamim - as long as the complete redemption is delayed - and a gift for Am Yisrael in the end of days before the arrival of Moshiach, when so many Yidden need great and powerful salvations.

Hakudosh Baruch Hu granted us this holy site where thousands of Yidden benefit immensely. It is surely mercy and kindness from Heaven that we have merited to discover it!

Stories of Salvation through Prayer and Kabbalahs at the Holy Tzion in Agur A Liver Transplant Miracle A talmid chacham from the Har Nof neighborhood in Yerushalayim relates: My wife became ill with liver disease, and had to endure a series of tests. One day during testing, my wife asked me to travel to Agur and pray for her. While at the tzion, I received a phone call saying that the test results were concerning and that they were heading to the emergency room at Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital.

The suffering increased. It was Zos Chanukah, when they informed us at the hospital that an emergency liver transplant was needed. The doctors said that the situation was grave and we panicked. We continued praying at the tzion, and suddenly miraculous news came from the hospital. A suitable donor liver was found. They immediately performed the operation and it was BH successful. The doctors said that two days later would have been too late, chas v’sholom.

A Taxi Driver’s Story A religious taxi driver in Yerushalayim relates: I received a booking from several Satmar Chassidim to drive to Agur to the tzaddik’s gravesite. I didn’t even know where it was, but it’s marked on Waze as “tzion of the Tzaddik R’ Yitzchak Gabra.”

While driving, they told stories about the greatness of this place, that it’s conducive to great salvations. Whatever one prays for is accepted. I decided to go in and pray for my

grandchild who was born a few years ago with a heart defect and was facing surgery.

Coming out from the tzion, after driving just a few meters, my son called me in the car, when all the passengers heard him crying out in excitement: “Abba, a miracle... Abba, a miracle!” He had just come from the doctor and informed us that the heart problem had healed on its own. No surgery needed!I was deeply moved by the wondrous salvation of Hashem, and together with me, all my companions were also deeply moved.

A few days later, the same young men booked me to drive them to Agur again. They didn’t want to tell me why, but they did say that they were, BH, saved from the trouble they were in when they came to pray. They were returning only to thank and praise the One who answered their prayers. At that time, I also thanked for the salvation of my grandson, who was privileged to receive such miraculous healing.

Freedom from Debt A young man, a yirei shamayim, from the old city in Yerushalayim was deeply in debt.

He traveled to the holy tzion to pray, and while standing there, he made a vow that if he would be helped and get out of debt within a month, he would make a large seudas hodaah in honor of the Tzaddik.

He relates: Immediately in the days after visiting the tzion, wealthy people approached

‫בס ”ד‬

me offering help - this amount, that amount, as gifts. Another came with a loan offer.

Amazing! Within that month, I was freed from the entire debt trap.

He fulfilled his vow and made a large seudas hoda’ah. Additionally, he accepted upon himself, bli neder, to immerse in the mikvah every day in memory of R’ Yitzchak bar Yitzchak Gabra, as it’s brought in sefarim that it’s a big inyan.

Skeptic Turns Believer A Yid from Bnei Brak told a writer: I was raised in a community where people are not so quick to believe in miracle stories. A few years ago, I began hearing astonishing rumors about wonders occurring at the tzion of the righteous R’ Yitzchak Gavra in Agur. Out of habit, I was somewhat skeptical, although I was careful not to, chas v’shalom, show disrespect.

In my family, there was a young woman who had become much older than the typical age for marriage. Many attempts had been made on her behalf, but she was still waiting.

Similarly, I had a friend who had been married for over ten years, longing for children.

He had tried every possible avenue but had not been blessed with a child yet.

I suggested to both of them that they travel to Agur to pray at the grave of the righteous

tzaddik. What can I say? Said the man from Bnei Brak: To my joy and to the joy of their hundreds of relatives and acquaintances, the salvations did not delay in coming. The young woman became a kallah shortly thereafter, and my friend was blessed with a daughter, and later with more children, BH. Both families openly declared that their prayers at the holy site had been answered speedily.

Protestor’s Trial Dismissed A young man, a yirei shamayim, residing in Beit Shemesh, participated in a demonstration where a police officer targeted him.

When he tried to break free, more officers joined in and arrested him, accusing him of assaulting the police. He was released on bail, and on the day of the trial, his brother advised him to travel to Agur—not far from Beit Shemesh—to pray at the tzion of the righteous tzaddik for salvation.

The two brothers traveled and prayed.

That day, sitting before the judge, the case was quickly dismissed without any reason.

As an expression of praise and thanks to Hashem, the brother donated cold water near the tzaddik’s tzion, so that those who come to pray at the holy site could benefit from it.

It remained there for a long time, providing refreshment to the visitors and serving as a merit for the soul of the tzadik.

Seven Older Bochurim Travel to the Tzion Seven older bochurim from a prestigious yeshiva in Yerushalayim organized a trip to the holy tzion. Upon their arrival, they prayed with great emotion and accepted upon themselves to study daily for the next month in memory of the righteous R’ Yitzchak bar Yitzchak. They pledged that if they received their anticipated salvation, they would celebrate with a fleishig seudos hoduah with a minyan lilui nishmas hatzaddik.

One of the students, a wise guy, somewhat depressed about his situation, remarked, “I have tried so many segulas; I only came here to see the place, but I will

‫בס ”ד‬

not take upon myself this commitment.” Incredibly, within a month, the six who made the commitment became engaged, while the seventh remained waiting for his salvation. He later returned to the holy site to ask for forgiveness and publicly shared this story as a segulah.

Inspired by this story, an older bochur from the Satmar community in Yerushalayim traveled to the tzion with a minyan, including other older bochurim. They completed the entire Sefer Tehillim and prayed for a speedy marriage. Shortly afterward, the bochur became engaged, followed by the others, one after another.

Unbelievable! But True A man from the Geula neighborhood in Yerushalayim shared an astonishing story.

His young child suffered from an unknown emotional illness and would cry endlessly, day and night. Doctors conducted numerous tests but could not diagnose the cause. The situation remained a mystery.

Desperate for help, the father traveled to Agur to pray at the tzion. Incredibly, when he returned home, he found his child calm and content. The relentless crying had completely ceased. The entire family sighed in relief after years of suffering.

Your Child is the Best in Class!

A young ben Torah was in great distress when his child was struggling, and the Talmud Torah where he studied no longer wanted to keep him. They tried other Talmud Torahs in Yerushalayim, but nothing worked out. The winter zman of the year 5783 had begun, and the child was still at home.

Two weeks into the semester, the father, with a broken heart, traveled to Agur to pray that the tzadik would intercede on his behalf against all odds. A day or two later, the young avreich entered his kollel, and a friend asked him why he looked so downcast. He told him about his son’s situation.

The friend was shaken and told him, “I know a principal of a Talmud Torah where it would be good for your child to study, and this principal needs assistance from an acquaintance of mine in America. I will speak with my acquaintance, and hopefully, a salvation will come this way.” Right then and there, he called his American friend, who responded, “I will do everything to get this child accepted into the Talmud Torah.”

A few days later, the parents received a phone call from the principal—who had previously rejected them—inviting them for an interview. The child was re-admitted to the Talmud Torah. However, the parents were still anxious and filled with worry about how things would turn out. But at the first teacher-parent meeting, the teacher joyfully told the father: “You should know that your child is the top student in the class! Where have you been until now?”

The sponsor of this article is publicizing the number where one can fax a kvittel to be placed at the tzaddik’s grave all year round: 845-478-4028.

May his merit protect us all.

The day his new dental practice opened in Pomona, Dr. Shmuel Schuster began with a roster of zero patients. That first day, he treated a grand total of two patients and an emergency. Two years in, his practice is full for the four days a week that it’s open, and the other two days finds Dr. Schuster at another clinic.

Now he’s here to share insights from his career, tips for maintaining oral health, and advice for navigating common dental challenges — everything from flossing and fluoride to Fidelis.

Rooted Success Dr. Schuster was the type of kid who couldn’t sit at a desk all day. He credits his father for guiding him towards dentistry.

“My father takes very seriously the mishnah in Kiddushin that says a father should teach his son a livelihood,” he says. “I’m one of eight siblings, bli ayin hara, and I think my father did a great job of directing each one of us to the right career choice.

He realized that I would need to work in a dynamic environment, plus I’m good with my hands, so dentistry was a great fit.”

After completing a Bachelor of Science degree at Touro in two and a half years, Shmuel studied dentistry at Stony Brook University, and then completed a one-year residency at St. Barnabas Hospital in the Bronx, where he treated dental emergencies in the ER.

Although he didn’t specialize in pediatric dentistry (which requires an additional two years of study), he gained a huge amount of practical experience while working at a healthcare clinic in Kiryas Joel.

“I worked in Kiryas Joel for five years. It was an amazing experience to work with frum people, and of course, there were many pediatric patients.”

After working at a pediatric dental office for an additional five years, Dr. Schuster finally opened his own practice: Samuel Schuster, DDS.

First-Timers Dr. Schuster treats patients of all ages; his current record stretches from a baby who was just a couple of days old, to a geriatric patient who was 102 years of age. But he especially enjoys working with children.

“I find it rewarding to watch the progress of challenging kids — the ones who start off uncooperative and fearful — as they transform over time. Seeing them return with a much calmer and more confident mindset is incredibly fulfilling.”

That change in attitude toward the dentist’s chair

cations can lead to a dry mouth, which increases the risk of dental problems.

Saliva plays a crucial role in neutralizing acid in the mouth, and when saliva production decreases, it can no longer effectively protect teeth, making cavities more likely. Fortunately, there are products specifically designed to help alleviate a dry mouth.

Nature or Nurture If you’ve been blaming your children’s cavities on your in-laws, well, you may just be right! According to research, about 60% of tooth decay is caused by genetics.

But a bad gene isn’t an excuse to let go of your oral hygiene routine. In fact, Dr. Schuster cautions parents of children who are susceptible to cavities that they should be taking even greater care of their oral health.

“Think of those people who gain ten pounds just by looking at bread! They know that they have to be extremely careful with their diet. The same is true for people with a family history of poor teeth.”

Although some children present with tooth decay at an alarmingly young age, most children come in with their first cavity when they’re around five years old.

“At this age, the back teeth start to grow in, so the teeth get closer together and start touching one another,” Dr.

Schuster explains. “This often causes ‘in between cavities.’ Brushing alone is not enough to prevent in-between cavities, because the toothbrush can’t reach food residue that’s stuck between the teeth.

That’s where flossing comes in. Teach your kids to floss!”

For those blessed with good genes in terms of oral health, nature can only go so far. In his many years of experience treating patients from different communities and backgrounds, Dr. Schuster has seen clear evidence of socioeconomic circumstances having an impact on people’s oral health.

“When parents are working all day to provide for a large family, they often go for the easy food choices, and those are usually the worst for your teeth. Foods like chips and juice are really bad, not just because of their sugar content, but also because they tend to leave a lot of sticky residue between the teeth. Also, overworked parents are usually too exhausted to oversee their children’s teeth brushing.”

Nevertheless, Dr. Schuster recommends that parents make a point of going over their children’s teeth.

“After your child brushes their teeth, take a moment to brush them again yourself — even just for ten seconds. In those ten seconds, you can do more for their teeth than they might manage in ten minutes. And if they cry? That’s okay — crying is just part of being a kid! Those few seconds of discomfort are a small price to pay for safeguarding their longterm oral health.”

between amalgam fillings and silver crowns and caps. Silver crowns and caps do not contain mercury or any other harmful substances. Dentists choose to use them because they are much easier to place than white fillings.

“In order for a white filling to be placed successfully, there needs to be proper isolation. If the tooth is full of saliva, the filling will fail. White crowns, which are usually not covered by health insurance, can cost $500. If a child doesn’t cooperate and moves around too much, a white filling is virtually impossible to place, which means hundreds of dollars down the drain. In such cases, it’s better to use silver caps.

In fact, if a child is being particularly difficult, we can just place a silver cap over the tooth without any drilling, and it will do a pretty good job of protecting the tooth from further decay.”

Fluoride has made headlines recently after Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Trump’s pick for Head of Department of Health and Human Services, announced that he would end the addition of fluoride to public water supplies.

Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral found in water, soil and air that has been proven effective in preventing tooth decay. It strengthens the tooth’s enamel — the hard outer layer — making it more resistant to the acids produced by bacteria that cause decay.

Additionally, fluoride helps reverse

early tooth decay by replenishing and preserving minerals in teeth.

Before the introduction of community water fluoridation, tooth decay was common across the United States. However, after fluoride was added to public water supplies in many areas, tooth decay rates decreased significantly in both children and adults. According to federal health officials, complete tooth loss among older adults also became far less common.

In 1945, Grand Rapids, Michigan, became the first city to add fluoride to its water supply in a controlled public health experiment. Over fifteen years, tooth decay among 30,000 schoolchildren dropped by over 60%, proving fluoride’s protective benefits.

Fluoride has always been controversial, however, with naysayers claiming that it is toxic and can cause serious diseases, including cancer. A 2024 report by Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews found that fluoridation’s benefits have declined since fluoride toothpaste became widely available in the 1970s.

Dr. Schuster says that he has observed the effects of fluoride firsthand.

“Public water in Orange County is not fluoridated, while in NYC, it is. While working at the clinic in Kiryas Joel, I could easily tell which patients had grown up in Brooklyn because their teeth were in far better shape.”

Water in Rockland County is also not fluoridated. In Eretz Yisroel, public water fluoridation ended in 2014.

A healthy, beautiful smile doesn’t happen on its own; it’s built with regular dental checkups and great oral hygiene. Stay consistent so your pearly whites can shine brightly until 120.

His top front teeth were beginning to wiggle, and he was growing up.

After getting some nice shots, I shepherded my kids back up to the house. My son was on his bike, gave an awkward twist to the handlebars, and fell down. When he got back up, there was blood on his spotless white

This past fall, we spent one afternoon at a park. Before I let the kids run off with their bikes, I asked them to sit down on the grass for one picture. As I snapped, I looked at my third child, and the same thought came to mind, along with a nice dose of deja vu. This is probably the last nice photo I’ll be getting of her little-girl smile. of winter Tpassed, cozy and relatively calm.

And I waved my hand and said quickly, “No, no, look, they’re not yet that wiggly.”

She agreed that they weren’t yet that wiggly, but skipped away happily, her tongue pushing at her tooth.

Then came Shabbos, and she said, “Look! One tooth is almost falling out!”

She looked beautiful. She was growing And I said, “We can’t pull a tooth up. And I sighed wistfully and wished her on Shabbos.

There are adventurers who will pull airplanes with their earlobes (ouch!) if they believe it will get them into the Guinness Book of World Records. There are scientists who brave jaguars and flesh-eating insects to get through the Amazon jungle in pursuit of an unknown frog species.

“pain index” of insect stings. (The most painful insect sting award goes to the bullet ant, whose sting ranks a nasty 4.0+ on the Schmidt Sting Pain Index.)

Humans have incredible endurance and can go through unimaginable pain in order to achieve a goal.

But there’s one fear many struggle to conquer: the fear of going to the dentist.

FOR DREAD OF DENTISTS Dental anxiety is real and more common than you think. Between 9% and 20% of Americans avoid going to the dentist due to that very real fear. The fear can be so bad, sufferers can show some pretty frightening symptoms: hyperventilating, panic attacks, fainting and a palpable, irrational feeling of sheer terror. Not only is the fear very real, but somewhat paradoxically, the fear is more dangerous than the ordeal itself. Many people have avoided getting treatment for painful dental conditions, allowing infection to fester until the consequences were enormous and even dangerous.

Psychologists have even given a name to the condition: dentophobia.

Dentophobia (also called odontophobia) is a type of anxiety that can cause people to be afraid of the dentist or dental procedures. This can range from mild anxiety to an intense phobia that can make people avoid going to the dentist at all costs, despite the risks.

Dentophobia can be an amalgamation of many fears. These fears can include fear of pain, fear of injections (or fear that the injection won’t work), and feelings of helplessness and loss of control. Most commonly, people develop dentophobia after having negative experiences with a dentist in the past. If you’ve gone to a dentist who has scolded you, been rough with you, or not considered your needs, it’s not hard to understand why you may have developed a negative association with dentists. Many dentist-haters say that worse than having a dentist whose treatment was less than gentle is the dentist who ignores or even mocks the patient’s concerns.

If you think dental anxiety can’t be all that bad, in a village in France, the police ended up being involved in a twelve-yearold’s dental anxiety. The boy was found wandering the streets of the village of St. Gervais, and informed police that he had been kidnapped from the town of Bagnols, over one hundred miles away. He said he had been traveling to a dentist appointment, when he was abducted and pulled into the kidnapper’s car, before he managed to run away.

For over a month, police searched fruitlessly for the kidnapper, whom the boy had described in vivid detail. He described the kidnapper as a muscular, tall man with a notable scar on his right cheek, dressed in a black shirt and jeans. After

searching for over a month, they reviewed CCTV footage and questioned the boy several times.

There was a reason they couldn’t find the kidnapper: There had been no kidnapper! After intense interrogations, the boy confessed to having made up the whole thing in order to get out of going to his dentist appointment.

People will sometimes make weird excuses to avoid going to the dentist, although admittedly, few would go as far as saying they’d been kidnapped! Just as claustrophobics avoid elevators and aerophobics avoid airplanes, people who have extreme fears often employ extreme measures to avoid the object of their fears. Avoidance of a frightening situation is one of the most common ways of dealing with anxiety, though the consequences of avoiding going to the dentist can be pretty awful.

A DENTIST’S TAKE Dr. Henry Nogid, a beloved Brooklyn dentist who has been serving the frum community for over 60 years (ad meah v’esrim!), weighs in on the topic.

“I come from a different era. As children, we were told to ‘take it like a man’ and that ‘anesthesia is for babies.’ The dentist’s chair would be called ‘the white-knuckle seat,’ since patients would grip the armrests so hard that their knuckles would turn white!

“Dentistry has come a long way,” Dr. Nogid concedes. “Going to the dentist can be scary. It can be scary even for dentists! But the dentist’s job is to do the job quickly and painlessly while reassuring the patient throughout the visit.”

Dr. Nogid’s number-one trick for patients who are afraid of needles is never to let the patient see the needle. The fear of the needle is much greater than the actual pain of the needle, and seeing the needle makes it look scarier than it really is.

How can a patient overcome dental anxiety?

“Go to the dentist often,” Dr. Nogid says. “Not only will you get used to dentists and your anxiety will lessen, but if you go often, you will resolve small problems before they become bigger problems. The bigger the problem, the greater the likelihood of pain.”

After so many years of serving the community, Dr. Nogid has seen it all. Many patients are a little nervous at first, but the most anxious award goes to an eighteen-year-old young man the dentist has recently seen.

“Many of his teeth were completely decayed, since he had avoided going to the dentist for so long. He got into the chair, but as soon as I approached him, he bolted out of the chair and ran for his life, never to be seen again!”

CONQUERING THE FEAR The key to conquering dental anxiety is to take the crucial first step: finding a good dentist. Do your research by speaking with others, and make sure the dentist you are considering has a good reputation, both professionally and in their bedside manner. A dentist who is reassuring, friendly and gentle, will go a long way in calming an anxious patient’s fears, and a positive experience will ensure the patient will come back for further necessary treatment.

Choose a dentist who is approachable, someone who is

For some people, once they’ve already taken the big step and they’re sitting in the dentist’s chair, the best way to deal with their fear and anxiety is deliberate and planned ignorance. If you’re the kind of person who doesn’t want to know or see what’s going on until it’s over, bring some music or an interesting shiur, and plug yourself in until it’s over. Others cope by asking exactly what is going on. If knowing what to expect calms you, don’t be afraid to ask your dentist to explain each stage of the procedure,so that you can mentally prepare for what’s going to happen next. Another helpful strategy is to establish a signal such as raising your hand when you want the dentist to immediately stop. Use this signal whenever you feel uncomfortable, need to rinse your mouth or simply need to catch your breath.

Patients who find it absolutely impossible to go through with dental treatment can try going to a dentist who is willing to work with patients under complete sedation. Being put to sleep before even seeing the dentist and waking up after all the work is done may be the best course of action for patients who aren’t able to keep their anxiety in check.

General anesthesia for dental care is usually performed in a hospital or similar clinical setting. The anesthesiologist monitors the patient throughout their treatment to ensure that they are responding well and that their oxygen levels are adequate.

Although this kind of setup requires much more care than an ordinary dentist’s visit, the patient is completely unconscious and does not feel any pain during the procedure. Complete sedation is sometimes the route dentists will take when the work that needs to be done is more complex, such as procedures that may take a few hours, patients with severe anxiety, patients with a strong gag reflex, children who are uncooperative, and

children or adults with special needs.

Esther, who spent 40 years absolutely terrified of dentists, employed a different trick when she finally worked up the courage to see a dentist.

“As soon as I made the call, I felt a weight roll off my shoulders. I had taken the first step in conquering my fear. I realized that nothing was as scary as the fear in my head.”

In order to make sure she didn’t panic at the last minute and weasel out of her appointment, she told her husband and her best friend. This way, she could rely on their support and encouragement while ensuring they wouldn’t let her chicken out later.

PEDIATRIC PANIC With children, it might be particularly difficult to deal with extreme fear of dentists. Fear, as we know, is triggered by a feeling of danger. For children, who don’t always understand the need for people cloaked in white who sometimes inflict pain in their lives, the fear of danger is very real. Not all children who are afraid and misbehave at the dentist have behavioral issues, and not all children who have behavioral issues act out at the dentist. Dentophobia in children can be related to personality, age, parental dental fear, or association with past negative experiences.

Pediatric dentists today have come a long way from the forbid-

ding figures of the past. In most cases, they do their utmost to create a cheerful, happy environment in their office by decorating it with colorful, childfriendly motifs, and many dentists offer child-friendly (kosher!) videos. (At the pediatric dental practice we use, the Hispanic technician asks the children if they want to see Uncle Moooyshy or Twins from France.) If your child resists the dentist and is the type to kick and scream, inquire if your dentist offers “laughing gas.”

Laughing gas, or nitrous oxide, is a mild sedative that does not put a child to sleep, but provides a relaxed, sometimes sleepy feeling while also providing pain relieving properties. It is normally not covered by insurance and will usually cost between $50 and $150, depending on your specific circumstances. And there is no need to worry about the “laughing” part. Most experiences aren’t quite like its inaptly named moniker, and it is very rare to have a child actually succumb to a fit of giggles.

It can make the patient feel happy and even mildly euphoric, while dulling the effect of pain. It can sometimes lead to mild tingling in the arms and legs. Best of all, the effects only last as long as the gas is turned on, and the patient should be back to their regular selves within minutes, with no lasting aftereffects.

Laughing gas is not appropriate for everyone, however. Children must be mature enough to follow directions

and sit still in the chair, and be somewhat cooperative. A child who is crying hysterically will generally not breathe through their nose, and will not get the full anxiety relief from the gas. For children who refuse to cooperate, complete sedation might be the solution.

Children who have mild anxiety about going to the dentist will often calm down if they feel they are being listened to and their fears are not dismissed or minimized. Talk to your child before going to the dentist, and walk them through the experience so they know what they can expect. Role playing can be especially effective in helping a child understand what is going to happen, as well as feeling a little more relaxed. Children who have been given fair warning and are prepared are usually much calmer than children who suddenly find themselves at the dentist without explanation.

For people with extreme anxiety about going to the dentist, making that first phone call can be frightening.

Some extreme sufferers would rather live with the known — oral pain and decayed teeth — than face the extremely daunting unknown of a dentist visit. But once they overcome that fear, the feeling can be exhilarating.

It is so liberating to wrench free from the shackles of fear that hold you back, and to find yourself back in control of your oral health so you can smile with confidence.

Children who have mild anxiety about going to the dentist will often calm down if they feel they are being listened to and their fears are not dismissed or minimized 222

s far back as he could remember, Tully had been stuttering.

At three years of age, he wondered at his classmates who effortlessly unleashed endless streams of words. At five he wondered at his own inability to do the same. At seven he decided he was damaged goods, and at eight his peers came to the same conclusion. By the time he was twelve, he’d been to three different speech therapists, to no avail.

At sixteen, he was done. Done with the tedious speech exercises that took his time and energy and gave him nothing in return. Done with cowering anytime someone addressed him, with speculating which word would trip him up this time, and with frantically scrambling for alternatives. Socializing,

228

The Monsey View

he concluded, simply wasn’t worth the price. It was safer to remain silent than risk the humiliation of being left open-mouthed, wrestling with words that just wouldn’t come.

It was a lonely existence and deeply degrading. If it was the quality of medaber that rendered a human being human, who was he? What made him a person, if he couldn’t seem to master the art of speech?

He suffered so much, tried so hard, and now he was done. He was giving up. Giving up on speaking clearly. Giving up on himself.

That was when Tully heard about the segulah of the Skulener Rebbe. It was a great segulah for yeshuos, he was told, to light a candle at the kever of the Skulener Rebbe, Reb Yisroel Avraham, zt”l, for 40 consecutive days. People had seen incredible yeshuos.

It couldn’t hurt, he decided. It wasn’t like he had anything to lose. He would commit to 40 days, and that would be his last-ditch attempt, one last shot before he gave up completely.

Yanky Kaufman of Smooth Speech Solutions

Day after day, unbeknownst to anyone, Tully made his way from his home in Monsey, New York, to the final resting spot of the Skulener tzaddik. Day after day, he lit one little flame, pouring years of hope and heartbreak into his tefillah. Five days became ten, then twenty, and still Tully was at it, counting, hoping, davening for his yeshuah.

Unbeknownst to Tully, his father was moving worlds on his behalf. He knew his son was suffering, he saw him sinking gradually to a point of no return, and he was desperate to do something to stop the train wreck Tully’s life was becoming. He’d exhausted so many options — spoken to countless people, researched endless methods, heeded all kinds of advice, and shelled out thousands of dollars. But he was determined to try again.

He spent hours talking to yet more people, researching yet more methods, and listening to yet more advice in a frantic attempt to find that elusive solution for his son.

His efforts led him to Yanky Kaufman of Smooth Speech Solutions, also a former stutterer, who’d worked wonders with scores of severe stutterers.

The more Tully’s father heard, the more hopeful he became. Maybe Yanky

would be the shaliach to finally help Tully succeed in speaking — and in life.

If it were up to Tully’s father, he’d have had his son meet Yanky that very day, but the first available appointment was weeks away. He booked the appointment, resolved not to tell his son anything just yet, and began breathlessly counting down the days.

So the days passed, with Tully counting up and his father counting down, each unaware of the other’s efforts, each clinging desperately to his last shred of hope.

On day 37, Tully’s father sat him down for a talk.

On day 40, Tully sat in Yanky Kaufman’s office and discovered a novel approach to achieving fluent speech. Then he went straight to the Skulener Rebbe’s kever, where he kindled the final little flame in a blaze of hope.

Today, at age 23, Tulli is a rebbi. Unfazed by the gazes of two dozen preteens watching him speak, he stands confidently in the classroom, and he talks.

He talks about persistence, about defying the odds, about the faith that things can change.

And he talks about tefillah and the power of a tzaddik, and the enduring impact of one last hope.

It was safer to remain silent than risk the humiliation of being left openmouthed, wrestling with words that just wouldn’t come

THANK YOU, UNCLE YEHUDA. THERE’S SO MUCH TO LEARN AS JEWS. IT’S HARD, BUT IT’S FUN.

I’M GLAD TO HEAR THAT, LITTLE ONES. NOW GO TO SLEEP. TOMORROW, WITH HASHEM’S HELP, WE’LL REACH THE SAVANNA.

ZEESKEIT, YOU SEEM TROUBLED.

UNDER THE OVEN? WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

BUT THE EXACT LOCATION OF THE TREASURE… SOMETHING DOESN’T ADD UP.

DON’T BE SO WORRIED, MISHA’LE. PEOPLE SEARCH FOR TREASURES UNDER BRIDGES AT THE END OF THE WORLD, AND IN THE END, THE TREASURE IS ALWAYS AT HOME UNDER THE OVEN.

WRITTEN & ILLUSTRATED BY: BATSHEVA HAVLIN

IT’S AN OLD STORY. IT HAS MANY VERSIONS. BUT IT GOES LIKE THIS:

THERE WAS A POOR, GOOD JEW NAMED EISIK OF KRAKOW WHO DAVENED TO HASHEM FOR PARNASSAH. ONE NIGHT, HE DREAMED THAT THERE WAS A TREASURE BURIED UNDER A BRIDGE IN A EUROPEAN TOWN...

YES… THESE INSTRUCTIONS, THEY LEAD TO WHERE THE JEWS USED TO LIVE ON THE SAVANNA, TO A SPECIFIC SPOT SOMEWHERE AT THE END OF THE WORLD.

RECAP: ZUSHE HAS A CONVERSATION WITH PEDRO ABOUT HIS ANGER.

I THOUGHT YOU’RE SLEEPING!

EISIK PACKED HIS FEW BELONGINGS AND SET OUT ON A DIFFICULT JOURNEY.

I’M SORRY. PLEASE, JUST FINISH THE STORY, AND WE’LL GO BACK TO SLEEP.

HEY! THAT’S JUST LIKE US!

EISIK ARRIVED AT THE BRIDGE, BUT TO HIS DISAPPOINTMENT, THE BRIDGE WAS GUARDED, AND THERE WAS NO WAY TO DIG BENEATH IT. HE SPENT AN ENTIRE DAY WALKING BACK AND FORTH NEAR THE BRIDGE.

ONE OF THE GUARDS STOPPED HIM AND ASKED WHAT HE WAS DOING. IN HIS DESPAIR, EISIK TOLD THE GUARD ABOUT HIS DREAM. THE GUARD BURST OUT LAUGHING.

YOU MADE THIS WHOLE JOURNEY BECAUSE OF A DREAM?

HEY, THAT’S THE JEW’S NAME!

IF I WOULD PAY ATTENTION TO MY DREAMS, I’D GO TO THE HOME OF SOME EISIK OF KRAKOW, BECAUSE I DREAMED HE HAS A TREASURE BURIED UNDER HIS OVEN!

EPTIONS

It is widely believed that body heat escapes mainly through the head. But research has shown that body heat loss is proportional to the surface area of the unprotected parts, so it’s important to cover all body parts, especially extremities.

This myth is said to have been born in the 1950s, when a U.S. military experiment concluded that over 40% of the body heat is lost through the head.

Further insight, though, has brought to light that the only reason we thought we were losing heat through our heads was because it was the only body part that was left unprotected in the cold.

RECORDED!

WORDS YOU MAY NOT KNOW THAT SAY THINGS IN A WHOLE NEW WAY

Sororal [seROHrel] is an adjective that means “like a sister,” as in: The two friends shared a sororal bond.

SAY IT WITH A TWIST HOW CAN A CLAM CRAM IN A CLEAN CREAM CAN?

SO RANDOM! The vice president’s wife holds the honorary title of second lady. But what happens when the vice president is a woman, as occurred in Joe Biden’s presidency?

Her husband is known as second gentleman.

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP SIGNED 26 EXECUTIVE ORDERS ON INAUGURATION DAY ITSELF, SETTING A NEW RECORD. TO COMPARE, LET’S TAKE A LOOK AT RECENT PRESIDENCIES. BARACK OBAMA SIGNED TWO EXECUTIVE ORDERS ON THE FIRST DAY OF HIS FIRST TERM; DONALD TRUMP, WHEN STARTING HIS FIRST TERM, SIGNED ONE ORDER; AND JOE BIDEN SIGNED NINE ORDERS ON INAUGURATION DAY.

WHAT DO YOU KNOW? We welcome town trivia, historical facts and photos, and Torah-themed riddle submissions. We’d also love to hear if you have additional answers to our puzzles!

‫ט"ו בשבט תשפ"ה‬ FRUIT LIST UPDATED The information in this list has been excerpted and translated with permission from the 5785 Yiddish Tu B’shvat fruit guide of New Square Kashrus Council.

This list is regarding insect infestation only. Other kashrus concerns, including coatings of various fruits (which may be made from non-kosher fats or shellac) are not addressed on this list. In addition, one should be careful to use fruits grown in Eretz Yisroel only with a reliable hechsher, in order to avoid shailos of orlah, terumos and maasros, and shemitta.

ALMONDS See “Nuts”. If a round drill-like hole is noticed, discard that almond.

(These holes are sometimes very small.) Coated almonds (honey/sugar glazed or chocolate covered) should be used only with a good hashgacha.

APRICOTS Fresh: Fresh apricots are generally free of infestation. If the fruit is cracked or split, it is advisable to check the inner part of the fruit.

Dried: Dried apricots from Turkey have been found to be infested. Each one should be inspected carefully inside and outside for worms or pieces of worms. The natural brown spots on the outside are not a sign of infestation. Dried apricots grown in California are usually less infested; however, a few apricots from each batch should be inspected.

AVOCADOS Avocados are generally free of infestation. However, there are often scales (a type of insect) on the peel.

BLACKBERRIES Blackberries are heavily infested and should not be used.

BLUEBERRIES Blueberries (fresh & frozen) have a high rate of infestation of mites and scales, and should not be used. (The insects do not come off even after washing/agitating many times).

CAROB Carob is known to be very infested.

It may be used only in the following manner: The carob should be washed and cut in its width into small pieces (about ¼ inch each).

The pieces should then be inspected thoroughly from all angles, for any worms or crumb-like particles. A practical tip to make the carob easier to cut, is to first soak it in hot water for a few minutes to soften it.

CASHEWS Cashews may be infested; therefore, only good-quality cashews should be used. One should make sure that there is no webbing between the cashews, and inspect a few cashews from each batch by splitting them in half and examining them for worms.

‫ מדקדקים בכשרות‬are ‫ מהדר‬to check each cashew.

CHERRIES Grade A cherries grown in the USA are generally clean and don’t require checking. However, it is recommended to cut open a few cherries and examine them around the pit. If any worms are found, the rest must also be cut open and inspected carefully.

European cherries (sold canned/ jarred) are prone to infestation and should only be used with a good hashgacha. Frozen cherries from Turkey have recently shown a high rate of infestation.

CHESTNUTS Raw chestnuts may be infested during the first few weeks of the season. One must remove both the

(hard) outer and (soft) inner peel, and then cut the remaining chestnut into small pieces. The fruit should then be inspected thoroughly for worms or grey “crumbs” which is waste-matter from insects. If any signs of infestation are found, that chestnut should not be used.

CITRUS PEELS Fresh or dried citrus peels should be checked carefully. If any scales (which may appear as tiny dark dots) are noticeable, they should not be used.

CRAISINS Craisins are free of infestation, and should only be used with a good hashgacha.

CRANBERRIES Fresh and frozen cranberries are free of infestation.

DATES Fresh: Fresh dates (that are sold on a twig) are generally not infested. It is advisable to make sure that there are no holes or signs of infestation (webbing, etc.) on the outside of the date.

Dried: Cut each date open lengthwise, remove the pit, and inspect carefully around the pit. If one sees worms, beetles, or any signs of infestation (such as brown crumb-like particles), that date should not be used. (Small white particles are sugar crystals, and are not a sign of infestation).

The dates should then be held up against a light (or placed on a light box) for a more effective inspection for worms, and to make sure that there are no small dark beetles inside the flesh. If a dark spot is detected in the flesh, inspect to see if it’s just discoloration, or if there is an insect inside. USA grown Medjool dates are generally less infested than other dates (Deglet Noor, etc.).

Dates from Tunisia and Pakistan have a high infestation rate of scale insects which are hard to detect. It is advisable not to use them at all. Dates from Eretz Yisroel may sometimes have scales (that are more noticeable) on the outer peel. It is advisable to check each one for scales.

Date paste is made from inferior quality fruit, and should not be used.

DRIED FRUITS One should be careful to use only high-quality dried fruits. It is recommended to inspect them for insects before eating.

There may be additional kashrus issues regarding dried fruit (flavors, coloring, oils, non-kosher ‫כלים‬ during the process), therefore, one should use with a very reliable hashgacha.

ESROGIM The top (pitum) and bottom (ukatz) of all esrogim should be cut off with a little bit of the fruit and discarded.

Esrogim that are sold loose in stores as a fruit or for decoration, may have scales. S ee: C itrus peels. Those that are sold for arba minim may be coated with shellac.

FIGS Fresh: If the indentation on the

bottom of the fig is open, discard that fig. If the indentation is closed, cut off the stem on top, trim off the indentation on the bottom, and cut the fig in half. Each half should be inverted (to resemble a yarmulka) and thoroughly inspected. If any worms (maggots) or black specks are seen, the fruit should be discarded.

The worms may be very similar to the color of the fig. Some experience identifying these insects is necessary for this inspection to be effective.

The outer peel of figs is infested with mites that don't come off even after soaking in soapy water and rubbing under a stream of water, and should not be eaten.

One should either peel off the outer skin or scoop out the inner part with a spoon.

Homegrown figs are even more prone to infestation, and should be avoided.

Dried: Dried figs are highly infested and the process of inspection is very difficult. Only someone who has experience checking figs should attempt such an inspection. One who is not an expert may eat dried figs only in the following manner: Scrape out and discard ALL inner seeds. Cut out the hole at the bottom of the fig. Wash the remainder of the fig (the skin) on both sides while rubbing it to remove any residue.

GOJI BERRIES Dried goji berries from various places of origin are very infested, and should not be used.

GOOSEBERRIES Remove the outer leaves, and rinse the fruit well.

GRAPEFRUIT Grapefruit is generally free of infestation.

Peel: See “Citrus Peel” GRAPES Grapes sold commercially in the USA do not have inside infestation, but there are often insects on the outer surface.

Each grape should be removed from the cluster, and the entire surface of each individual grape should then be thoroughly rubbed while being held under a strong stream of water.

(Rubbing dislodges the insects from the grape skins). It is preferable to first soak the grapes in soapy water for 10-15 minutes.

When producing “must” (grape juice) or homemade wine, one should strain the finished product through a tightly woven cloth, such as shirt fabric or the 230 mesh filter sold for filtering juices.

GUAVAS Fresh: Fresh guava may be infested.

Cut the fruit into thin slices and examine for worms.

Dried: Dried guava discs (thin round slices) are generally produced from inferior quality fruit that are heavily infested. One should inquire of the Baal Hamachshir regarding the status of that particular product.

Recently, some companies started to make guava discs using apple puree as a base and adding guava flavor, which eliminates the infestation concern; check the ingredient panel on the individual product.

KIWIS Kiwis are generally free of infestation. The peel may have scales, and therefore should be removed before eating.

KUMQUATS Kumquats may have scale insects on the peels, and should be peeled before eating.

LEMONS Lemons are generally free of infestation.

Peel: See “Citrus Peel” MANGOS Mangos are generally free of infestation.

cracked or split, it is advisable to open it and check the inner part of the fruit.

Dried: Dried plums/prunes are generally free of infestation.

However, it is advisable to check a few of each lot.

Dried Angelino plums are more prone to infestation and it is recommended to check them.

NUTS All nuts should be checked for webbing or other signs of infestation.

POMEGRANATES Pomegranates sold commercially are generally free of infestation. If there is a hole on the outside (similar to a round drill hole), one should cut open the fruit and follow the hole to ensure that there are no worms inside. Any inner part that is decayed should be discarded. Dark/brownish areas inside the fruit are not a sign of infestation.

Nuts that are marked “allergen for dairy” may have been packed on dairy keilim that were used for ‫חלב‬ ‫עכו”ם‬.

RAISINS Raisins are infested and should not be used, regardless of the color and the country of origin.

Roasted nuts (with or without oil) need a reliable hashgacha.

Zante Currants are generally clean and are a good substitute for raisins.

NECTARINES Fresh nectarines are generally free of infestation. If the fruit is cracked or split, it is advisable to open it and check the inner part of the fruit.

ORANGES Oranges are generally free of infestation.

Peel: See “Citrus Peel” PEACHES Fresh peaches are generally free of infestation. If the fruit is cracked or split, it is advisable to open it and check the inner part of the fruit.

PEANUTS American grown in-shell peanuts are generally free of infestation. It is advisable to inspect them when cracking them open.

PERSIMMONS The leaf should be removed, and the fruit washed well. If the fruit is very soft, it should be inspected inside. If there is a dark spot on the peel, remove the peel in that area and check for inside infestation. If infestation is found, do not use that fruit. Small black dots on the peel or inside the fruit are not a sign of infestation.

PINEAPPLES Pineapple peels are very infested with mites.

When peeling pineapples, care should be taken to remove all the brown that remains from the peel, including the three small brown ‘tripod’ shaped lines.

The pineapple should then be rinsed, as well as the knife and any surfaces that were used for peeling.

In order to use the green leaves of the pineapple for decoration, each individual leaf must first be removed from the crown and soaked in soapy water for 5 minutes, and then rubbed thoroughly under running water.

Juice: Pineapple juice is usually squeezed from the peel of the pineapple; one should ask the rav hamachshir how they handle the infestation issue.

Dried: Sugared dried pineapple does not have infestation, but the natural dried pineapple can be very infested and should be used only with very good hashgacha.

PISTACHIOS On rare occasions, infestation can occur in pistachios. It is preferable to check a few pistachios from each batch before eating.

PLUMS/PRUNES Fresh: Fresh plums are generally free of infestation. If the fruit is

RASPBERRIES Raspberries are heavily infested and should not be used.

STAR-FRUIT Star-fruit should be rinsed on the outside.

thoroughly

STRAWBERRIES Fresh: Fresh strawberries are heavily infested on the outer peel and may be used only the following way: Cut off t he g reen l eaves with a thin portion of the fruit, and peel the entire surface of the strawberry.

Rinse, and check to ensure that all seeds and fibers were removed.

Frozen: Fairmont Frozen strawberries with our hashgacha are produced under careful supervision by expert mashgichim, who thoroughly inspect the fruit as they are harvested, and again after the strawberries have gone through the special washing procedures. Although we are constantly trying to produce clean strawberries, in recent years, our mashgichim have not been able to satisfactorily approve strawberries as being completely insect-free; therefore they are currently out of stock.

SUNFLOWER SEEDS Unshelled: One should purchase only high-quality unshelled sunflower seeds. Each seed should be opened by hand (not cracked open with ones teeth), and checked.

Shelled: Shelled sunflower seeds are usually clean if stored properly.

One should make sure that there is no webbing or beetles between the seeds.

TAMARINDS Both sweet and sour tamarinds may be infested at times. Check for holes, which are signs of infestation. Tamarind paste is made from inferior quality fruit, and should not be used.

WALNUTS Unshelled: It is advisable to inspect walnuts (for webbing or crumbs) when cracking them open.

Ground: One should ensure that there is no webbing or clumps.
