First of all, THANK YOU MODERATORS! Without you there would be no Yeshiva World coments.
Mrs. Beautiful, I hope you and all the wonen in Yisroel always have such easy births. I just remember with one of my kids that my husband and the nurses were like cheerleaders: You can do it! You can do it!. I didn’t want to thank them, I wanted them to hush and get out of my sight! :-). B”H I didnt’ say anything to them.
Mod 72, that was a very nice way to show hakaras hatov. When my son was in the hospital for a few days, I went out and bought a box of donuts for the nursing station. When my husband was in Hatzala, he ocationally would do what he (and other members) would call a “pizza run” where they would get a few pies for the ER staff. It went a long way in good will.
