By the Grace of G-d 2nd of Adar Rishon, 5744. Brooklyn, N.Y

Greeting and Blessing:

This is to acknowledge receipt of your recent correspondence. As requested, I will again remember you in prayer for the fulfillment of your heart’s desires for good in the matters about which you wrote.

I trust you received my previous letter¹ in which I emphasized to you the need to follow the advice of your doctor, which is also what the Torah expects of a Jew, since looking after one’s health is a very important Mitzvo, on which many other Mitzvoth are dependent.

Now that we have entered the auspicious month of Adar, when "joy should be on the increase," may this be so with you in a growing measure.

With blessing,

M. Schneerson
