A father of a 3 year old, diagnosed with abdominal cancer, told his story over to a huge Rabbi speaking at Brooklyn college. The Rabbi gave him a Bracha and people in the HUGELY DIVERSE crowd were SO touched by the story that they ran up on stage and wanted to take upon the Mitzvah of Tzitzit in the z'chus of Refuah for this young boy. This does no justice to how amazing the video is but the doctors and parents had given up hope after 2 months of being in the hospital until after this Bracha was given and this mitzvah was taken on by people who had NO connection whatsoever to this little boy. The father felt that because these people took on such an amazing mitzvah just for this little boy that HaKadosh Baruch Hu would listen to their tefillot and cries for help.
With that being said, we think it would be a huge z'chus to take on a mitzvah for the Refuah Shleimah of not only all the cholim of Klal Yisroel, but especially for Zecharia Kalman HaKohen ben Yael Margolit. If we could all just really take the time after going to the bathroom to REALLY recite and understand the bracha of Asher Yatzar, it could be so powerful. I know for me, I sometimes rush out of the bathroom without really hearing the words and their meanings. Blessed are You, Hashem, our G-d, King of the universe, Who fashioned man with wisdom and created within him many openings and cavities. It is obvious and known before Your Throne of glory that if but one of them were to be ruptured or but one of them were to be blocked it would be impossible to survive and to stand before you. Blessed are You, Hashem, Who heats all flesh and acts wondrously.
Imagine such an easy mitzvah could do SO much for someone.

We hope this can have a huge impact. PLEASE forward to anyone who you feel is missing, or who would LOVE to share in such an amazing Mitzvah.
Have an AWESOME week.
