Yossi Hecht: Wheelchair-bound But Boundless
Inspiration for the Nation with Yaakov LangerAbout this episode
In the summer of 2019, Yossi Hecht’s life was drastically changed. The doctors found a tumor in his spine and he needed a number of surgeries to remove it. One of the repercussions from such invasive surgeries, is that the ability to go to the bathroom can oftentimes be affected. With advice of his Rabbeim, he embarked on a campaign for individuals to have more concentration on the bracha of Asher Yatzar. He saw personal wonders and has therefore made it his mission to try to inspire others to be more thankful. Thus, using the blessing as a conduit to appreciate all of the good bestowed upon us.
