1/31/13

Today is a day that hopefully Eli will not remember. He was in a bad mood from when he woke up after the few short hours that he barely slept. The nausea was very intense today and the vomiting was not fun and really almost unfair. He didnt even try to eat anything today for his fear that it would come right out. Bh the night ended on a good note with a visit from his “uncle” who REALLY made him smile for the first time today.Eli has definetly lost some weight this week and we are really looking forward to getting out of CHLA for a very needed break hopefully before shabos beezrat Hashem.

Hopefully moving into our new house will make Eli feel comfortable and happy and we look forward to having him home especially for his brother and sister who have not seen Eli since Monday. IYH he will be up to eating and getting some excercise so he can gather himself and the strength he will need to continue fighting this machla.

We are davening that Elimelech Ben Basya will have a much better day Friday and that he will have the koach to continue this fight and enough koach that the doctors will feel he is strong enough to go home for shabos.

We are all davening for Eli and hope that he is home with the family for shabbos. Some days are worse than others as you know, and hopefully the future treatments won’t be as difficult. Meshane Makom methane mazel, I hope your new home will bring much comfort and mazel for the whole family.

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”
