Its been a long 24 hours but BH I’m back in LA. I did get to speak to Dr Kushner for about an hour which is the reason I went to NY so for that aspect it was a good trip. Unfortunately based on Elis current situation the studies they have at MSKCC Eli is not eligible for. We hope that possibly in a few months that will be different but for right now its not an option.

There are many other options of different studies/clinical trials here in LA and abroad that he recommended and we will be making a decision on which one makes the most sense and which ones Eli meets criteria for.

In the meantime BH Eli has been feeling pretty good today and got out for a few walks and ate a very decent amount. So all in all we are waiting for Elis blood counts to continue to rise so that beezrat hashem he will be strong for the treatments ahead.

Please as always continue to daven for Elimelech Ben Basya bsoch shaar choley yisroel.

Special Announcement

For the last few months a group of our close friends have been arranging to join Chai Lifelines marathon taking place in Florida on 2/2/14. They have already 12+ people just on the “team Eli” group along the many others that run for Chai Lifeline. To do so every runner goes through MONTHS of rigorous training which they have all began doing already. This is one of the bigger fundraisers for Chai Lifeline who anyone who has ever needed their services knows how vital they are when a family member is going through a illness. And for those who BH haven’t had a sick family member and beezrat hashem will never have should know that they are simply a lifeline. Always there and always thinking about what they can do to take their chesed to the next level.

Our family will forever be makir tov to them for what they have done for us and continue to do. Every runner that signs up is essentially pledging $3600 to join the CL team. Aside from the training they do they must also raise the $$. On the link below there is a team Eli page which shows how much together the team has raised but you can click on each persons name and donate directly to their pledge. We beezrat hashem hope as a family to be there together with Eli who will be pushed in a wheelchair/stroller by one of the runners during the marathon

I look at this as a insurance plan that hopefully your donation should chas vshalom never be used towards your family or anyone you know but for us its the ultimate lifeline. Again I ask that anyone that can should please donate whatever they can “every dollar counts”. If you can donate $5 great if you can do more even better. If you can fully sponsor a runner would be amazing. There is also nothing wrong with a runner more then fulfilling their pledges for this great and worthy cause.

Anyone wishing to join the team should please email Ayalaback@gmail.com and anyone wishing to donate should please go to this link: http://www.teamlifeline.org/myteam.php?myid=88.

All I can say simply is “tizku lmitzvos”
