Infertility: Forever Waiting
When will the time be right? When will Hashem (G-d) hear me crying out to him in pain, calling to Him from the depths of my heart and soul Can He hear me?
Schlissel Challah
But what if you want to do something to get try to get a message to G-d? What if you’re searching for some kind of meaningful connection?
Shana Tova Message
“It’s a New Year. I sit here and reflect where I was last year at this time. The hope that the one healthy embryo from our retrieval would implant and turn into the baby we dreamed of.”
Rosh Hashana Prayer
There is a concept in Judaism that if you pray for someone else to have _______, then that blessing will be bestowed upon you too. So, I'm asking all of you to pray.
It’s Yom Kippur Again
On behalf of everyone at IWSTHAB, may this be the year where no one suffers, and Hashem answers all of your prayers. Gmar chasima tova. Xoxo, Aimee
God Isn’t a Vending Machine
It's another thing to pray. But it's even a different level to keep praying to the being who runs the world, knowing that you have already been disappointed so many times.
Another Month
Read this woman’s vulnerable piece about waiting and hoping every month for a baby. “Another month of shattered hopes and dreams, another month that I’m torn and tattered at the seams.”
Mental Health and the Holidays
Thank you Rav Yoni Rosensweig for these incredible words of chizuk/strength about mental health and the high holidays with a few reminders.
“Last Year I Stood In Shul”
A letter to G-d from a member of the community before Yom Kippur. “Dear G-d…. I call out to you from the bottom of my heart, please bless me with a better year. Fondly, your daughter.”
This Year
To those of you who have found enough peace to make it through the holidays, we support you. To those of you feeling deep deep pain and struggling to make sense of it all, we support you too.
