By the Grace of G-d 3rd of Adar II, 5741 Brooklyn, N. Y.
Lincoln, Neb.
Greeting and Blessing:
I am in receipt of your letter of Feb. 27th, and may G-d grant the fulfillment of your heart's desires for good.
With regard to the contents of your letter, it is in general difficult to give specific advice in such a complicated situation, since the answer would depend on additional details lacking in your letter, and it is altogether difficult to convey all the details in writing. Therefore, the proper thing to do is to consult with an Orthodox Rabbi, with whom the whole situation can be discussed personally and at length, since a Rabbi treats such matters in confidence, and he is also experienced in such a matter. Then he can give the proper Torah advice, which will surely be in the best interests of all concerned.
Wishing you and all your family a joyous and inspiring Purim,
With blessing,
