Surplus of blessing

טיב הקהילה English | December 10, 2025

Due to a medical problem, a surgery was scheduled for my daughter in two months. But she awoke with severe pains and the doctor decided to perform an emergency surgery immediately.

I very much wanted to reach my Rebbe and teacher, Rabbi Gamliel Rabinovitz שליט״א, to receive his blessing before the surgery, but I was unable to do so.

I hurried to the local store and bought a little kosher food for the stay in the hospital here in America. I paid for the purchase in cash and received one dollar in change.

I saw that something was written on the dollar. Despite the pressure to get to the hospital, I looked at the writing. When I saw what was written there, my heart skipped a beat. Now I will quote for you word for word what was written: ‘I received from Rav Gamliel Rabinovitz’ and on the date exactly today, one year ago!!!

I felt that from Heaven they had already arranged for me a blessing, and I entered with a calm and trusting heart into the surgery, which passed with greater success than expected, Baruch Hashem!!!
