@gramham I'm sorry for your situation, but I understand. I'm 72, a little younger, but I've gone through some rough times with my body, cancer. My faith still holds me strong, and since my husband's family was Jewish, I have been immersed with a very different culture for 37 years of marriage! It has been an incredibly interesting life for me. My husband was a born again believer in Yeshua (Jesus, the Messiah) HaMaschiach Ben Elohim (Son of G-d). Yet his family was still Jewish non-practicing due to something that happened because of their religious leaders, she wouldn't say what. But I believe our influence had an effect on them, although it was mostly unspoken. His mother asked many questions about our faith, but I never knew if she believed. I have had many conversations with other Jews who had questions because of my faith. I was never preachy but lived a quiet faith. My husband went home 4 years ago this month 2/21/22. It was a hard transition for me in life. That's another long story for another text. G-d has been faithful to me to be my husband, and used my brother to help me get through it. G-d is awesome!
