Unfortunately Eli is back at CHLA once again. Since getting back home nearly a week ago it has taken a lot longer then we had hoped and longer then we have seen in the past to recoup from surgery and the hospital stay. The last few days Eli has been complaining about having pain on and off and after taking some pain meds it would go away. This evening the pain became unbearable and therefore we took Eli to the ER. Also even though Eli has been eating quite nicely regular food he has lost a few pounds which isn’t terrible but definitely not good either. The pain was in his arm on Sunday and today its in his leg and no longer in his arm. The DRs don’t have an off the top of their heads explanation for this.

Since the pain meds he got in the ER at about 12:30AM only last a few hours they wanted Eli to stay so if he needs it again we won’t have to come back. So at 3AM we were given a choice to either go home or be admitted. We decided to be admitted so that CV Eli shouldn’t have to go thru another minute of pain. Also being here will expedite any tests they may want to do to determine the cause of the pain. We hope to have more answers as to what the cause of this is. As a precaution they did draw blood labs but as always we are hoping they will be negative. We are also hoping that whatever was the cause of the pains Eli has been having will just pass and it will turn out to be nothing.

In the meantime please daven on behalf of Elimelech Ben Basya and all cholim LREFUA SHELAYMA.

Special Announcement

For the last few months a group of our close friends have been arranging to join Chai Lifelines marathon taking place in Florida on 2/2/14. They have already 12+ people just on the “team Eli” group along the many others that run for Chai Lifeline. To do so every runner goes through MONTHS of rigorous training which they have all began doing already. This is one of the bigger fundraisers for Chai Lifeline who anyone who has ever needed their services knows how vital they are when a family member is going through a illness. And for those who BH haven’t had a sick family member and beezrat hashem will never have should know that they are simply a lifeline. Always there and always thinking about what they can do to take their chesed to the next level.

Our family will forever be makir tov to them for what they have done for us and continue to do. Every runner that signs up is essentially pledging $3600 to join the CL team. Aside from the training they do they must also raise the $$. On the link below there is a team Eli page which shows how much together the team has raised but you can click on each persons name and donate directly to their pledge. We beezrat hashem hope as a family to be there together with Eli who will be pushed in a wheelchair/stroller by one of the runners during the marathon

I look at this as a insurance plan that hopefully your donation should chas vshalom never be used towards your family or anyone you know but for us its the ultimate lifeline. Again I ask that anyone that can should please donate whatever they can “every dollar counts”. If you can donate $5 great if you can do more even better. If you can fully sponsor a runner would be amazing. There is also nothing wrong with a runner more then fulfilling their pledges for this great and worthy cause.

Anyone wishing to join the team should please email Ayalaback@gmail.com and anyone wishing to donate should please go to this link: http://www.teamlifeline.org/myteam.php?myid=88.

All I can say simply is “tizku lmitzvos”
