After we got married, for all sorts of reasons there were delays in renovating our apartment and entry to it was delayed. We are as a young couple and in advanced pregnancy. We lived temporarily in all sorts of places, but we already wanted to be in Kiryat Arba, in the routine of the yeshiva.
Rabbi Eli and Dina invited us to live with them and we really came and lived with them for a month. It was wonderful, I would travel every morning with Rabbi Eli to the yeshiva.
After about a month my wife had a hard time moving and being in a home that was not hers, despite all the joy and coziness in their home, it was hard for her that she could not feel at home and maintain and operate it.
After consulting with Rabbi Bleicher, he said: "What is the problem? Come to our house, be close to the yeshiva in Hebron and you can also wash dishes, wash the house and organize ... there is a lot to do." It did not catch ...
When we talked about it with Rabbi Eli he looked us in the eyes with a fatherly and deep look and said to my wife "What do you mean 'you do nothing'? You're doing the biggest thing in the world, you're raising your child!
It was enacted in us and made us a big change in perception. It put in a lot of meaning and put things in place. It did not solve the problem, but it was a dose of adrenaline, a dose of acid, a dose of life. It was a big thing.
At some point after a while, Rabbi Eli told us, 'This is, it's unhealthy for you to continue to be here unhappy. You just have to go back and forth to your own house. ' We really went for a few days and maybe thanks to that, things started to work out and we got into our apartment.
