    My son Michael and I sung my father Mi Shebeirach as he laid prostrate suffering from cancer on his last breath. We sung it again in the hospital when my wife Gina lay in a coma from a stroke from which she recovered. We had the good fortune of singing Mi Shibeirach with Debbie on stage at the Allentown Jewish community center many years ago. It is a constant source of inspiration in times of great sorrow and Debbie will always be missed and remembered.

    Sigh. If only this prayer had worked to keep Debbie with us.
    My connection with Debbie was at the beginning of her career. She was "artist in residence" at my synagogue. She would lead us in singing, and we could tell there was something special about her.
    One day she taught us a song she had just written--"V'ahavtah." She had inadvertently hit upon something special and started writing other songs, but as a 7th grader, I was one of the first people to her her first song.

    I have been in the hospital in the last year for over a hundred visits. Each time, I listen to Debbie singing the Mi Shiberach and she restores my faith. I am have been in here for angiograms and 8 arterial stints. The rest of the time I have collapsed on the street. At night in the hospital, I was not sure I would survive until morning. Listening to Debbie always gave me that strength.

      I doubt you'll see this since you posted a year ago. I hope that the hardest part of your grieving process is behind you now, and that you can think about your dad and the memories you made together with more smiles than tears.
      It's May of 2023 as I type this, and I popped over here to listen to my favorite version of Mi Shebeirach because my dad is dying. Maybe tonight, maybe within the next day or two. But very, very soon. He has dementia, so he hasn't known me for quite awhile; I've watched him leave piece by piece by piece.
      Your post really touched my soul. My dad's 95th birthday is on July 2nd. He's lived a long life (B"H)! What I want for him more than anything is to die with dignity and to feel at peace; I want him to cross over to wherever he's going calmly, without fear or pain, knowing in his heart that I love him and that I'll be okay.
      It's hard to say goodbye to someone who's already gone.😢

My friend of many years has also been diagnosed with dementia shes 62. Its such a difficult disease to deal with. I hope this prayer gave you some comfort. As i write this, my mother in law is very unwell in hospital, having complications after breaking her hip at 86, this is certainly my goto healing process.

      I used to sing this song in Shabbat Service at a synagogue of Progressive Judaism congregation, though I am not Jewish. I went there to learn Jewish Biblical faith. I got good friends there. I was comfortable when I was seated among other congregants, who noticed me reading aloud there prayer book in Hebrew.
      I made my first Israel tour as I was allowed to join their tour group, led by a rabbi and a few Israeli worship leaders. If there is a chance, I hope I would revisit Israel with those having Christian faith.

It is sung regularly at our services but I wanted to have the words handy as my four footed 16 year old furbaby goes in for surgery next Tuesday and this my prayer for her as well as it calms me. She is as much a part of my family as the humans and must be "Jewish" by virtue of eating a whole box of Chanukah candles a few years ago! I met Debbie once when she sang at out Temple.

    My eyes well up with tears every time I watch this video or sing it on Friday nights at temple. I just want to know WHO those 16 people are who gave this video a thumbs down! This song will be for them and their loved ones some day!!

      I taught secular history for the little ones First Grade to Second grade at Adas Hebrew Religious school in the seventies and went to a retreat week all over the state called Cage. Debbie always came and the hebrew teachers and Cantors gathered to learn more of Debbies songs. I felt so special to be in her prescece that i could fee Debbies love permeate my being and all around me each time i attended. One year in the sp;ring i and two other teachers and the Marshall Kupchin the p;rincial led us to the Melton Institute in Ga and we went by plain lInda Yitchak who taught the family events and led services and I took the ;plane together and in the middle of the Atlanta airport outside of the ladies room Debbi had an atrtack on and we stood around praying for her to have it leave again. I will never forget her there not being able to stand up like we are and fighing this neurolgoical disorder . i remember she telling us in the audience not to , not to use our cameras and not ever use theflash when she is in front of us , as it hap;pened to her int he Atlanta airport being recognized by afan. Because her body sent her ina spasm when the flash went off and poor Debbie was captive to this happening and could not stop the body from going into spasms. i will never forget that moment in time and despite hjer short comings she continued to come out and teach us and i felt so luckyu t be in Washington Ujiversity and hear and touch Debbi at arms length . i will never forget how her music swelled inside of me and to this day I rememember Debbie in my heart she will always be forever my hero
      Gitel Goldman , her singing was a gift to my being a active Jewish Mom grand ma GG and was a woman of valor to my deceased beloved and our children were blessed with Debbis songs we still sing at our Shabbat meals , Hats off to the Memory of the works finest person who touched so many lives today and for ever.
