I was so moved by this video I cried. I haven't been to Israel since I was 16 months old. I have family there I have never even met. I want to go to the wailing wall. I lost my father just over a year ago and he was a holocaust survivor. I miss him. I want to leave a message at the wailing wall and I hope that one day I will go home, my home. I dream to go. Thank you my friend for sending me this link to this very special video. Thank you.

These people can be described in one word - hero's.

My grandmother was in the Hebrew Home for 2 years. They put her in room #1 out of over 800 rooms. That was because in her mid 90s she was in such amazing condition. She was in awe of the place and really appreciated being there. Her room was small and she had few belongings with her. That didn't seem to matter. As long as she could look at the pictures on the wall of her family. She probably cleaned out several residents playing poker. Great video! Shalom!

Herzl said, "if you will it, it is no dream." and these guys willed it. Kol ha cavod. They were amazing. A real uplifting video. Thanks for sharing x Shalom.

I am chvelling from these beautiful people...such a Mitzvah. I wish I could go now, at age 72, and take my 88 year-old spouse in his wheelchair. Do I dare to dream?

I'm a 65 year young woman sitting here crying. This is a fabulous video; I'm so grateful my friend forwarded it to me. My dream is to go to Israel. We're actively saving for the trip!! No cruise and one day or several hour layover for us - we plan to visit for at least three weeks and see the sights.
