The Girls Missing Their Mom’s Hugs

Dafna Meir hy”d was brutally murdered a few weeks ago in front of her children.

The family have tried to continue on with their everyday lives, but sometimes the pain is too much to bear.

This week, a Facebook post by Dafna’s husband, Natan, was shared widely. He posted the following:

My sweet daughters, Noa (11.5) and Ahava (10.5) took part in an indoor gymnastics competition this week in Otniel. They both received medals for 2nd and 3rd place. 2 mothers, wonderful neighbors, accompanied them and made them very, very happy.

When evening fell, the crying also arrived – the triumphs that Mom never saw. Where is Mom’s hug? Why wasn’t she here to see?

I suggested to them that I post the photo of them with their medals so they could get a warm and loving hug from all of Am Yisrael.

The post was since like over 50,000 times and shared more than 7,000 times! Am Yisrael Chai!
