On behalf of my family, I want to thank every single person who has reached out, expressed their concern, love, strength, prayers and hopes for my cousin. Last Thursday, Netanel Felber, Netanel Ilan ben Shayna Tziporah, was shot several times in the head protecting civilians at a bus stop from terrorists. Two of his fellow soldiers made the ultimate sacrifice. He is currently in a coma and in "stable" but severely critical condition. The outlook remains pretty grim, but miracles do happen. This morning, when his dad Joe told him that they would be putting tefillin on his arm, Netanel moved his shoulder as if he was giving Joe his arm to help him put the tefillin on. Again, miracles can happen so if you can keep him in your prayers and thoughts, that'd be super. I know he's a young adult now, but the photo is how I always think of "the little guy" (my nickname for him) - a cute, smiling, sweet, funny, jokey, slightly mischievous kid. Thank you again for the offers of strength and love. Keep on praying, hoping, and loving!
