Report From Shaare Tzedek
Yitzchak Meir went to Shaare Tzedek hospital for EEG and CT scans. Doctors are not pleased with the results. We attempted to check him in, but balked when we heard that insurance would not cover the admission.

We saw Yitzchak Meir at Shaare Tzedek Hospital today. It was very sad to see such a little baby hooked up to all these wires. His breathing was erratic, and his colour was very pale. I was reminded of the time I went with my father to see his mother in the Intensive Care of…
On Shabbos, I commemorated the first anniversary of the death of my son Yitzchak Meir ben Lev Halevi. On Friday night I went to shul early – I had already davened mincha at 12:30pm, but wanted to be there when the 2nd mincha started (at 20 minutes before sunset) so that I could talk to…
Yitzchak Meir is still breathing on his own, but with extra oxygen. The doctors still call his condition a “coma”, but we were quite amazed by his behaviour today. Ella was able to pick up and cuddle Yitzchak Meir for the first time, ever. She also gave him a bath. Amazingly, he opened up his…

Also my converted Mom?(No salvation needed) and all we have to do is encourage Jews to follow all the mitzvot for the messiah to come? Does this include that the men and women should not be marrying outside of Israel?(Non-Jews) And also the new temple will have to be built for the sacrifices.
