Netivot Tohar… Project Update

Monday, September 22nd, 2008

Hi everyone,

Just an update on the “Netivot Tohar” Book Translation Project which we have taken on in the merit of a refuah shleima for Moshe Yair ben Bayla Tanya.

BH we have so far raised $3,000 towards our $10,000 goal. This means we still have another $7,000 to go in order to complete the translation.

This amounts to 140 people giving $50 each to the project. If you are able to contribute in any way, click here for the bank details. We welcome any contribution.

Thank you,

The Alschulers

Sunday Night Learning Programme

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

Hi Everyone,

This picture is of Moshe with all his Manchester United goods. He loves it as you can see.

Last Sunday night we started our 4 week learning program in the merit of a refuah shleima for Moshe.

It was wonderful of everyone to turn up for the learning. About 20 men and 15 women arrived and were inspired by great shiurim from Rabbi and Rebbetzin Steinhaus.

Quite a few people said they could only start coming next week so we are expecting an even bigger turnout next week. Is that not awesome?

Moshe has now had 18 radiotherapy sessions with only 10 remaining after which he will return to chemo treatments.

We will still post some photos of Moshe enjoying himself at his brother Benji’s barmi last week. I am waiting for the photos and then will tell you a bit more of Moshe’s escapades at the barmi. You will be quite impressed. Keep watching the site for more updates.

Love the Altschulers

The programme starts Sunday night August 24, from 8pm - 9pm, and runs for 4 Sunday nights.

Next Big Chemo, Then Radiotherapy Starts

Sunday, July 13th, 2008

Hi all,

Thanks for all the comments and emails. Moshe loves them and checks at least 3 times a day to see if messages were left for him. It’s great so please keep them coming.

Tomorrow (Monday) Moshe has his next heavy chemo session. He will be in for 3 or 4 days depending on how he is doing and we pray that he will have as few bad side effects as he has had during the last 3 heavy sessions.

After this week’s chemo we enter the 2nd phase of his treatment, i.e. radiotherapy. This will consist of 5 or 6 weeks of 5 - 10 minute sessions 5 days a week.

The radiotherapy is very different to the chemo and can have various side effects so please can we all continue to pray that Moshe will suffer no bad side effects in or after any of his future treatments, and that he may be granted a complete recovery, a refuah sheleima from Hashem.

Please remember to look at the Mitzvah programmes we have launched in the merit of a refuah sheleima for our dear Moshe. Please look at the links at the top right hand side of this page and click on the links below “Mitzvah Projects”.

A reminder, Moshe’s Hebrew name is Moshe Yair Ben Baila Tanya.

Thanks again for the incredible comfort you all continue to shower us with.

Love,
The Altschulers

Moshe’s Day Back At School

Thursday, July 3rd, 2008

Good morning all. Moshe had a fun day at school yesterday and all his friends were very excited to see him.

One of the children had a cold so Moshe took doctors’ masks with him and at one stage in the day the whole class put the masks on in solidarity with Moshe. His class is really a great and thoughtful bunch.

As scheduled he has blood tests today and a CT SCAN next week.

Please leave comments for Moshe and email me should you want to be part of the mitzvah programs highlighted on the top right hand side of the page.

Regards,

Ezra
