The doctors gave my mother only 2 months to live. She’s 78 years old and weighed only 84 lbs. We knew that if she was ever going to have a chance to beat a recurring case of cancer, she needed to gain weight. We asked you to daven for us that she would gain weight. My 40 days of prayer ended on April 9. Before the 40 days were over, she had already gained 6 lbs and was doing much better.  I attribute this improvement a huge degree to my 40-day prayer.  I have not been to Israel since 1979; however, I will never forget how it felt to be in Jerusalem and especially by the Wall.  For me, it is almost indescribable.  I felt the presence of G-d more strongly there than anywhere else.  I am very grateful and would like to continue when the first 40-days are up.
