Compassion shown to me in hospital, makes me proud to be Jewish

During my recent stay at the Linksfield Clinic I was totally overwhelmed by the compassion and empathy bestowed upon me during my few days there by volunteers of Bikkur Cholim. It was a Friday morning and I was privileged to be visited by Charmaine Shulman, then a charming young gentleman and then three young boys from Yeshivah College with a huge (lucky) box of goodies for Shabbos and Purim.

I find it amazing that these young people give of their spare time to visit fellow Jewish people who are not well and to know what wonderful mitzvot they perform, makes me really proud to be Jewish.
