You are one trick pony…

Man gets hit by car = sexual abuse

Woman chokes on crust of challah = sexual abuse

Please broaden your horizons a bit…there are other issues which adversely affect people.

This is one of the most painful stories I have heard in a long time. My fear is that there are others out there who have kept things that happened to them secret and never had the opportunity to get help. If this sounds like you, please know that there is help out there. Please don't hesitate to call. “Anyone desperate enough for suicide...should be desperate enough to go to creative extremes to solve problems: elope at midnight, stow away on the boat to New Zealand and start over, do what they always wanted to do but were afraid to try.” -- and if you are a survivor of child abuse, to go to your local rape crisis center and ask for help! Susan Edelman, a reporter at the New York Post, is working on an article regarding Motty death. If anyone has any pertinent information please call her at 212-930-8062.

I am a middle aged person with many grandchildren (kayn yirbu). Never have I met a fellow who exuded happiness, contentment, joy, and goodness more than Motty. Joy fairly oozed out of his pores!. He had the unique ability to put a smile on everyone’s face with a good word or joke. He got engaged on the motzei shabbos after we spent Shabbos together. His excitement was palpable as he talked almost of nothing else. He spoke of going to school and his hopes for the future. No way can anyone who knew Motty agree that there might have been the slightest emotional problem. Motty surely suffered a freak accident orchestrated by the One Above for reasons understood only by HIM. From some previous gilgul Motty and Mali had to be married for exactly 2 days. Motty had to wear a tallis for one day, for reasons we will never understand. Our job is to accept and mourn. Hashem nosan, Hashem Lokach, Yehi Shem Hashem Mevorach. Motty in your short life you positively impacted so many, may this be a zechus for you in a world where only emes counts." comment from http://matzav.com/tragic-petirah-of-mordechai-motty-borger-zl
