----- Forwarded Message -----From: "'Chicago Aneinu' via chicago-aneinu" <chicago-aneinu@googlegroups.com>To: "Chaya Miriam Wolper" <myysbyy@aol.com>Sent: Tue, Jun 11, 2024 at 10:44 AMSubject: [chicago-aneinu] BDE Devora bas (Erika) Naftali a"h--With deep sorrow and a broken heart I inform you of the petira of Devora bas (Erika) Naftali a"h, Debbie Mayer.A former Chicagoan, Debbie made aliya to her beloved Eretz Yisroel, and then started her own davening email list. Her devotion to Klal Yisroel knew no bounds, and was only to be outdone by her devotion to HKB"H. Her emunah and bitachon were breathtaking. She was always studying, learning, and growing, and was an amazing role model. She faced her illness with tremendous courage and with the conviction that everything that Hashem does is for the best. She was a constant source of chizuk and was always davening for others.May she be a melitz yashar for her family and for Klal Yisroel.המקום ינחם אתכם בתוך שאר אבלי ציון וירושלים*********************************Please daven and say Tehillim for Devora bas Erika, Debby Mayer, who is still back in Israel. She has devoted her life to helping Klal Yisroel, and now we need to storm the heavens on her behalf. May Hashem direct her to the right shaliach and bless her with a speedy refuah shlema.********************************Devora bas Erika is going to have to undergo many tests. Please daven she should be free of pain and suffering and be able to find the right sheleechim to help her.*********************************HaShem has answered the tefilos of Devora bas Erika, and she is home in Eretz Yisroel. Looks like she will be staying put for the time being. She is exhausted in every way from her journey. Please do not call or visit at this time, as she is just 'being'. Messages of caring are always appreciated, just let her know you don't expect a reply. I personally gain a lot from Debby's ability to find the bright side in every situation. She is always looking for the hand of HaShem in her life, and never forgets to thank Him for all her blessings. May He bless her with feeling good, regaining her strength, and basking in the love of her family. We Love You, Debby!! May we see the geulah very soon and all of our tefillos answered for the good.****************************
1And the Lord said to Abram, "Go forth from your land and from your birthplace and from your father's house, to the land that I will show you.
RASHI:אוַיֹּ֤אמֶר יְהֹוָה֙ אֶל־אַבְרָ֔ם לֶךְ־לְךָ֛ מֵֽאַרְצְךָ֥ וּמִמּֽוֹלַדְתְּךָ֖ וּמִבֵּ֣ית אָבִ֑יךָ אֶל־הָאָ֖רֶץ אֲשֶׁ֥ר אַרְאֶֽךָּ:
Go forth: Heb. לֶךְ לְךָ, lit. go to you, for your benefit and for your good, and there I will make you into a great nation, but here, you will not merit to have children. Moreover, I will make your character known in the world. — [from Rosh Hashanah 16b, Tan.] לֶךְ־לְךָ: לַהֲנָאָתְךָ וּלְטוֹבָתְךָ, שָׁם אֶעֶשְׂךָ לְגוֹי גָדוֹל, כָּאן אִי אַתָּה זוֹכֶה לְבָנִים, וְעוֹד שֶׁאוֹדִיעַ טִבְעֲךָ בָּעוֹלָם:
from your land: Now had he not already gone out of there with his father and come as far as Haran? Rather, thus did He say to him, "Distance yourself more from there and leave your father's house."מֵאַרְצְךָ: וַהֲלֹא כְבָר יָצָא מִשָּׁם עִם אָבִיו וּבָא עַד חָרָן? אֶלָּא כָּךְ אָמַר לוֹ הִתְרַחֵק עוֹד מִשָּׁם וְצֵא מִבֵּית אָבִיךָ:
that I will show you: He did not reveal the land to him immediately, in order to make it dear in his eyes and to give him reward for every command. Similarly (below 22:2): "your son, your only one, whom you love, Isaac." Similarly (ibid.): "on one of the mountains that I will say to you." Similarly (Jonah 3:2): "and proclaim upon it the proclamation that I will speak to you." [from Gen. Rabbah 39:9]אֲשֶׁר אַרְאֶךָּ: לֹא גִּלָּה לוֹ הָאָרֶץ מִיָּד כְּדֵּי לְחַבְּבָהּ בְּעֵינָיו, וְלָתֵת לוֹ שָׂכָר עַל כָּל דִּבּוּר וְדִבּוּר; כַּיּוֹצֵא בוֹ, אֶת בִּנְךָ אֶת יְחִידְךָ אֲשֶׁר אָהַבְתָּ אֶת יִצְחָק (ברא' כ"ב), כַּיּוֹצֵא בוֹ עַל אַחַד הֶהָרִים אֲשֶׁר אֹמַר אֵלֶיךָ, וְכַיּוֹצֵא בַּזֶּה וּקְרָא אֵלֶיהָ אֶת הַקְּרִיאָה אֲשֶׁר אָנֹכִי דֹּבֵר אֵלֶיךָ (יונה ג')
:ELEF Havdalas, but —Rashi says that the literal meaning of lech lecha, viz., go forth, "go for your benefit." And so to, I came for here IY"H for my benefit. That does not necessarily mean that it lessens the sense of exile.I might fly home for a short visit IY"H, but I still have to return, and no one knows for how long. The Doctor said indefinitely as long as the trial drugs are working, and IY"H they will continue to do so by the His grace. But nothing is revealed or known at this point.So I was given a tiny and brief glimpse into the Schechina's dislocation and suffering in exile. I was so grateful to Hashem for granting me that short bit of "bina" and or "haskel." It brought me comfort to be able in some small measure to connect with the Schechina's exile. Maybe in so empathizing, maybe that took a drop of Its suffering away. Disclaimer: please I'm making no grandiose assumptions or presumptions, chas v'chalila, about my abilities in that last statement.Wishing us the ability to get closer and closer to Hashem, and hang on for dear life, as IY"H we move closer and closer to the Geula Schlema. . . .atb,debby*******************************************From Debby:BS"D Hasdei Hashem blood test that measures tumor markers showed marked improvement from before I started clinical trial 5877 to last week 3109. Pls keep up your good work davening and saying tehillim and thank you very much! My oncologist from Israel reacted to the results saying "it is a good sign".************************************Gut Voch, Gutten Chodesh, Chodesh Nissan-- a month filled with hope, potential, and open miracles.A reminder and a wonderful idea from my hosts: before you eat every piece of Chametz that you eat between now and Pesach, say: I'm being biur chametz-elevating every bite you take!Thank G-d things are going as well as could possibly expected on the clinical trial. Hashem is carrying me through it as He has carried me throughout this process. All thanks to the Borei Olam who showers me with every breath I breathe, every step I take; allows me to see, smell, taste, touch, to get from lying down to sitting, sitting to standing, to be able to use my fingers to type, etc. etc. The list is endless. . . . ! I'm grateful beyond what I can write. I just constantly beg Him that I continue to feel His presence always with me. That's not to say that I don't have my moments of fear, foreboding, home sickness, etc. But, I just keep turning to Him begging Him to help me internalize His incredible love and confidence!We are experiencing tremendous upheavals. We are being shaken up literally physically, and spiritually. Friday's earthquake's epicenter was equidistant (62.2 miles+) from Brooklyn, Lakewood and Monsey-the three largest frum communities in the U.S.May Hashem grant us all the siyata dishmaya and rachomei shomayim to cling to Him as tightly as possible. May He help us bring Him nachas ruach; to nullify our will before His will, and beg for His help to do His bidding. May we merit to herald the coming of the geula shlema in peace and soon.***************************************Be sure to open the picture of the clinic so you can see the address clearly!Update from Debby:BS"DDear Daveners:Hasdei Hashem I've been accepted into the clinical trial and begin tomorrow.Please note below the address on the building where the clinic is located!8=maaleh min ha teva-from my s-i-l and from a good friend8=8th bracha in Shemonei Esrei=refaenu! (from my host, who probably does not want me to share his name!)613=our mitzvos8+6+1+3=18=Chai8+1=9 = 4+4+3= Emesmy patient id number adds up to lev and when you do other permutations and combinations it includes Hashem's Name, and "Hashem doeg" Hashem is right here with me--unreal!
all the best,
debby****************************BS"DDear Daveners,Thank G-d all the interviews and medical tests are over for the time being, and I believe that the information has been or will be sent tomorrow to the Drug Company in CA that is developed and produced the medication I may be taking beginning 20-March. The Drug Company has to decide whether it will accept me into the trial.The trip went as well as it possibly could, thank G-d but here are some wonderful Yad Hashem anecdotes:1. When I arrived at JFK there was only one customs official dedicated to wheel chair passengers--as you can imagine the line was very long. Finally a second window opened up and it seemed to be moving along quite well, and suddenly that custom's official announced that he was closing -- and that the woman immediately in front of me would be the last person he would take! So I was wheeled back to the other line which was now almost twice as long as it had been before. I asked the person who was wheeling me to take me back to the other line because the custom's official was still there. So, he did, and I called out to him explaining I'd come to the US for medical treatment and did not tthink I had the stamina to wait another 40 minutes. So, he said "oh alright, hurry up I'll take you.. Anyway when we had been waiting in line I asked the young black man who was responsible for pushing me, what was his name. "Messiah"! So I asked that was the name your mother gave you at your birth, "Yes"! Hashem has a wonderful sense of humor right?2. So out we go and all of a sudden a beagle is next to me? I said what's this I don't want a dog by me. Then I had occasion to notice that at the other end of his leash stood a rather imposing custom's official. He asked me whether I had brought food into the country. I said yes, some cookies, pretzels and nuts. So off we went and as we were going out the doors, I said to myself, "oy I forgot I had an apple in my purse!!!!"3. I had gotten a call from Reb. Leah Finkel last week, after she had found out I had come here for treatment. She told me her "baby sister" lives in Silver Spring, and that if I needed anything I should call her--Reb. Yaffa Lopiansky. So I very much wanted to get my hosts a nice fleishig meal and of course had no idea where, what, etc. I phoned her and she said there was a place in Rockville, but shse would call and call me back which she did. When she called back she told me that I could call and place the order under her name because she would have one of the Yeshiva Bochurim pick it p--since they had no deliver service, and that is exactly what happened.4. The biggest Yad Hashem is that the company running this clinical trial held the slot open for me until I arrived and could be interviewed and tested, that it was here in a very physically pretty setting and I could stay with wonderful friends that I had known in Chicago.Today, thank G-d, was a day with much less pain, first such day since I left israel--so much to be grateful for. ---

מִמַּעֲמַקִּים קְרָאתִיךָ יְהוָה.
Out of the depths have I called Thee, O LORD.
תִּהְיֶינָה אָזְנֶיךָ, קַשֻּׁבוֹת-- לְקוֹל, תַּחֲנוּנָי.
let Thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.

I will lift up mine eyes unto the mountains: from whence shall my help come?Psalms - Chapter 142 תְּהִלִּים
1A maskil of David, when he was in the cave, a prayer. אמַשְׂכִּ֥יל לְדָוִ֑ד בִּֽהְיוֹת֖וֹ בַמְּעָרָ֣ה תְפִלָּֽה: 2[With] my voice, I cry out to the Lord; [with] my voice, I supplicate the Lord. בקוֹלִי אֶל־יְהֹוָ֣ה אֶזְעָ֑ק ק֜וֹלִ֗י אֶל־יְ֘הֹוָ֥ה אֶתְחַנָּֽן: 3I pour out before Him my speech; my distress I recite before Him. גאֶשְׁפֹּ֣ךְ לְפָנָ֣יו שִׂיחִ֑י צָֽ֜רָתִ֗י לְפָ֘נָ֥יו אַגִּֽיד: 4When my spirit enwraps itself upon me, and You know my path. In whichever way I go, they have hidden a snare for me. דבְּהִתְעַטֵּ֬ף עָלַ֜י | רוּחִ֗י וְאַתָּה֘ יָדַ֪עְתָּ נְתִֽיבָ֫תִ֥י בְּאֹֽרַח־ז֥וּ אֲהַלֵּ֑ךְ טָֽמְנ֖וּ פַ֥ח לִֽי: 5Looking to the right, I see that no one recognizes me; escape is lost from me; no one seeks my soul. ההַבֵּ֚יט יָמִ֨ין | וּרְאֵה֘ וְאֵין־לִ֪י מַ֫כִּ֥יר אָבַ֣ד מָנ֣וֹס מִמֶּ֑נִּי אֵ֖ין דּוֹרֵ֣שׁ לְנַפְשִֽׁי: 6I cried out to You, O Lord; I said, "You are my refuge, my lot in the land of the living." וזָעַ֥קְתִּי אֵלֶ֗יךָ יְהֹ֫וָ֥ה אָ֖מַרְתִּי אַתָּ֣ה מַחְסִּ֑י חֶ֜לְקִ֗י בְּאֶ֣רֶץ הַֽחַיִּים: 7Hearken to my cry for I have become very low; save me from my pursuers for they have overpowered me. זהַקְשִׁ֚יבָה | אֶל־רִנָּתִי֘ כִּֽי־דַלּ֪וֹתִי מְ֫אֹ֥ד הַצִּילֵ֥נִי מֵרֹֽדְפַ֑י כִּ֖י אָֽמְצ֣וּ מִמֶּֽנִּי: 8Take my soul out of confinement to give thanks to Your name; because of me the righteous will crown You, because You will recompense me. חה֘וֹצִ֚יאָה מִמַּסְגֵּ֨ר | נַפְשִׁי֘ לְהוֹד֪וֹת אֶת־שְׁ֫מֶ֥ךָ בִּ֖י יַכְתִּ֣רוּ צַדִּיקִ֑ים כִּ֖י תִגְמֹ֣ל עָלָֽי:
