Hi everyone I wrote down the dates. I'm able to access my internet every few days. Although I'm in the midst of a high tech society, my mom doesn't have a computer nor cable. She believes in face to face. Maybe it's good to be a little detached. My mom has more energy than last year. However, her hearing and sight is a little worse. It's really good to be here with her. My husband ,Avner and my youngest, Aviad just landed in Israel. Moriah and my niece just joined us. My sister is coming just before I leave. So my mom will have a full summer. I finally talked to Ariel after two weeks. It was so good to hear his voice. Unfortunately, he won't be released this Shabbat as originally planned. It's a pleasure reading the Canadian newspapers. Unfortunately Hasbara needs to work on the New York Times etc. How is everone doing?
