A Medical Recommendation

Rabbi Zevulun Charlop is a prominent American rabbi and Dean Emeritus of the Rabbi Isaac Elchanan Theological Seminary, where he served for over thirty-five years. He remembers when his mother suddenly became ill and lost her sight. They quickly discovered that she was suffering from a stroke, and after stabilizing her, the doctor recommended a risky procedure. But first, they had to ask the Rebbe. (1950s)
