We have committed ourselves to paying for all of Rabbi Hurwitz’s medical costs such as daily care and exploratory treatments.  We are also covering the Hurwitz family’s financial burdens during this trying time in order to allow them to spend this critical time together without other worries. Without your vital assistance, all of this would simply be impossible!  We are very grateful that you partnered with us for this special mitzvah.  On behalf of Yitzy and his family, thank you so very much.
