Greetings and blessings,

..In my opinion, you did not act correctly in stopping your visits to the doctor. It would be good to visit an expert doctor again and carry out his instructions.

With regard to what you mention concerning separation, etc.: Heaven forbid that you should think of that, particularly since you received a blessing from my revered father-in-law, the Rebbe, הכ"מ ,זצוקללה"ה, נבג"ם, זי"ע, to be blessed with viable offspring and he can be trusted to keep his word. In particular, [this is true since] “the righteous are greater [after their passing than during their lifetime]”1 and “a tzaddik who has departed is to be found in this world more than during his lifetime.” [Zohar, Vol.III, p. 71b; cited in Tanya, Iggeres HaKodesh, Epistle 27.] He will see to it that his blessing is fulfilled. You will [certainly] convey good news concerning this.

You conclude your letter saying that you were forced to discontinue [delivering] your public classes. It would be desirable for you to continue them, but endeavor to deliver them in a manner that will not, Heaven forbid, weaken your health.

Awaiting good news,

M. Schneerson
