The Cohen family, of Houston, TX, is facing a battle none of us should have to go through – aggressive brain cancer in their 6-year old son Refael Elisha. Having recently received the devastating news from their doctors that “there is nothing more we can do for him”, the Cohens are turning to a last resort – Antineoplaston Therapy at the Burzyinski clinic. However, the FDA pulled their approval for this treatment in 2012 pending further clinical trials. We are told that the FDA is nearing approval to resume this treatment, but Refael Elisha does not have time to wait.
The FDA has the power to approve a “compassionate use exemption” so Refael Elisha can undergo this therapy to try and save his life.
MussarMinute is a series of popular videos that demonstrate a wide variety of Torah-related concepts in a kid-friendly way. Among the topics that the episodes have covered are Limud Hatorah, Emes, Middos Tovos, Chessed, Emuna and Bitachon. Boruch Hashem, the videos have been very well received and have been used effectively as a prize to motivate boys to learn on their free time. From the feedback, we hear that these videos have given boys an incentive to learn, and have given the families concise and cute videos to enjoy, and the parents as well have gotten much nachas.
