Forever My Child I could see that she was extraordinarily beautiful the moment she was born and placed in my arms. She was so tiny; her birth weight had been quite low, considering that she was a full-term baby. Bringing her into the world had been a harrowing, complicated ordeal, but I had no idea that things should have been different. She was my first, she was gorgeous and she was mine, and that was all that mattered. The doctors thought so too, at least at first. But then came the tests, and the examinations, and the referrals to specialists, “just to make sure that everything’s alright.” But six weeks later, nothing was alright any longer. The pediatric neurologist gave us the final verdict. “Your child has suffered serious damage to important areas of her brain. It’s impossible to predict precisely how she will develop over the years, but it is clear that there will be significant physical and mental delays.” I had always thought the shattering of one’s world took just a moment, like the splaying of shards as a crystal vase hits the floor. But for us, my husband and I, it was more like an ominous thundercloud, rolling over us in slow motion until we thought we could no longer breathe. Over the following weeks, we left our beautiful Miri in the hospital as we went home to absorb the impact of the diagnosis. And to make a decision. We were young, so very young. I had been the first in my class to get married, and my nineteenth birthday was just
2
approaching when Miri was born. The bliss of shana rishona, though not yet even officially over, faded before the enormity of what lay before us. We spoke to Rabbanim, to our Rebbe, to my parents, to my husband’s parents, and in rare moments of bravery, between ourselves. And then, on the advice of the great people we consulted, and our own understanding of the situation, we gave her away. One Rav, one of the wisest men I’d ever met, told me, “Sometimes, a child is meant to be brought into the world by one set of parents, and raised by another. Hashem wants you to accept His will wholeheartedly.” But I didn’t accept. For months, and even years, I railed against Hashem. Why had He done this to me? I had expected my life to be perfect. I didn’t deserve this. I knew I wanted Miri, but only a perfect Miri who would grow and develop in perfect sync with her peers. I clung to the dream that one day, the doctors would discover that they had all been wrong, that Miri was really just fine, and then I could take her home. The warm and kindly chassidishe family that had taken in Miri treated her like a princess. I knew, because whenever I could summon the courage, I went to visit her. Alone. My husband dealt with it in his own way, and chose to remain home. The family treated me with sincere respect, and would give me my privacy with my child. I would hold her for

SALES AND SPECIALS
She’s growing, my Miri. She doesn’t walk yet, and her communication is limited to pointing and the occasional monosyllable. Hashem has blessed me with more children, and in between my responsibilities as a mother to a growing family, I sometimes stop to soothe the ache in my heart for the child I gave away. I haven’t abandoned her, and though some will find it hard to understand the decision we made so long ago, my husband and I know we did what Hashem wanted us to do. Miri is my child, and though she
is being taken care of by a different family, I will always love her, and she will always be mine.

Health
Magnesium Magnesium is one of the most important minerals in the human body and is essential to good health. It is critical in over 350 essential biochemical reactions in the body including digestion, energy production, muscle function, bone formation, creation of new cells, activation of B vitamins, relaxation of muscles, and also assists in the proper functioning of the heart, kidneys, brain and nervous system. In fact, Magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral in the body—it can be found in human bones, teeth and red blood cells. According to some experts as much as 80% of Americans are magnesium deficient or have sub optimal levels of magnesium. But magnesium deficiency is often left undetected, due to the fact that 99% of our magnesium is stored in our cells, and a regular blood test will not show that. You would have to get a specialized intercellular magnesium test, and most doctors don’t do it. Magnesium is especially important and has been scientifically proven, to help the following:
• Low Energy and Fatigue • Inability to Sleep • Weakening of the Bones • Muscle Tension, Spasms and Cramps • Abnormal Heart Rhythm and high blood pressure • Headaches and migraines • Anxiety and irritability • Kidney Stones • Constipation WAYS TO INCREASE MAGNESIUM INTAKE:
YOUR
You can obtain some magnesium through foods like green Vegetables and nuts, but because of nutrient depletion of the soil, you won’t get enough magnesium from food sources. Also, the high stress life that we lead today and the toxins we are exposed to
on a daily basis increases our magnesium requirements. Taking supplements is a great way to replete your body with this critical nutrient. It is important to take a highly absorbable form, like Magnesium citrate. Magnesium oxide found in most multi- vitamins, is not very bio available, meaning your body will not absorb it well. When taking supplements, start with 200mg a day then work your way up. For a healthy person 400mg of a quality supplement should be enough. If you have a condition that you want to treat, than you can take a higher dose, even up to 1000mg a day. Taking high doses should be done carefully due to magnesium’s laxative effect. Increase the dose slowly every day, till your stool is comfortably loose.
