The Unlikely Cure
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.In 2015, Miriam Klein, a devoted mother of four from Manchester, faced a terrifying challenge. Her youngest daughter, Esti, just seven years old, had been suffering from a mysterious illness. After months of tests, specialists finally diagnosed her with a rare neurological condition that caused debilitating tremors and weakness. Doctors told Miriam there was no clear cure, and Esti’s condition was likely to worsen with time.
Devastated but determined not to give up, Miriam sought advice from anyone who might help. One Shabbos, a friend mentioned the Shotzer Rebbe’s tzion in Enfield. “People have experienced incredible Yeshuos there,” the friend said. “You should go and daven for your daughter. You never know what can happen.”
Miriam decided to act. Despite her packed schedule, she arranged childcare for her other children and took the train to London, clutching her kvittel tightly. At the Rebbe’s tzion, she lit three candles, recited Tehillim with intense concentration, and begged for her daughter’s refuah. She committed to a personal Kabbalah: lighting Shabbos candles ten minutes earlier each week, asking that it be a merit for Esti’s recovery.
The Trek Paid Off…
When Miriam returned home, she didn’t notice any immediate changes, but within two weeks, she received an unexpected phone call. A family friend mentioned a specialist in Switzerland who had successfully treated children with similar conditions. Though hesitant, Miriam and her husband decided to pursue it.
Traveling to Switzerland wasn’t easy, and the treatments were expensive, but from the very first session, Esti began to improve. Slowly but surely, her tremors subsided, her energy returned, and within six months, she was back to her playful, vibrant self. Even the Swiss doctor admitted he was surprised by the speed of her recovery, saying, “This is highly unusual.”
Though Miriam had taken practical steps, she had no doubts about what had truly transpired. “It was the Shotzer Rebbe’s bracha,” she shared. “It led us to the right person at the right time. Without that, we never would have found this doctor.”
Today, thousands continue to experience the Rebbe’s blessings, whether they visit the tzion themselves or send a kvittel. The Rebbe’s legacy lives on through these Yeshuos, offering hope and inspiration to those in need.
