About this episode
This episode is sponsored by our friends Victor and Jessica Kagan in honor of Rochel Mindel bas Noson Nuteh and Naftali ben Chaim Shraga Feivel. In this episode of the 18Forty Podcast, we talk to Mirlana Morris about the loss of her son, Donny, and perpetuating the memory of a loved one. Mirlana lost her son, Donny, in last year’s Meron tragedy when he was 19 years old. Mirlana speaks about choosing to live a life of emunah instead of being angry with God, and shares how she perpetuates the legacy of her beloved son. - Where does a mother find the strength to move forward after confronting a loss of such large magnitude? - How can one comfort the bereaved with sensitivity? - What does mourning have in common with Chol HaMoed and what does it teach us? Tune in to hear a conversation on love, loss, and moving forward.
