Rabbi Yitzi Hurwitz—father of seven, husband of Dina, and spiritual leader at Chabad Jewish Center in Temecula, Calif.—has been rendered immobile by ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease). Unable to speak or type, he uses his eyes to write heartfelt thoughts on the weekly Torah portion.

I listen to this when I have to write difficult e-mails in getting through a particular life challenge and it really lifts me up and keeps things positive. It prevents me from getting burdened by the hardship and helps me fight the yetzer hara to feel negatively toward someone who has hurt me. That brings Moshiach sooner. You have more zechuyos than you know!!! Thank you!!
PS - and it's great that it's available for those who don't have Youtube! Reply

My first symptoms of ALS occurred in 2009, but was diagnosed in 2011. I had severe symptoms ranging from shortness of breath, balance problems, couldn't walk without a walker or a power chair, i had difficulty swallowing and fatigue. I was given medications which helped but only for a short burst of time, then i decided to try alternative measures and began on ALS Formula treatment from Herbal Health Point, It has made a tremendous difference for me . I had improved walking balance, increased appetite, muscle strength, improved eyesight and others. Reply
