In a Facebook post this morning, Orit Mark wrote of her feelings of loss for her father, and her gratitude at still having her mother.
"To wake up in the morning and see messages saying "Missed Call from 'Mommy Dear'," it's unbelievable...just now, I had my first conversation with my beloved morther. My mother is alive, speaking, breathing...standing!! It's amazing! And she says that she misses me, and wants me to come see her [in the hospital]...there are simply no words. And mommy passes along a 'thank you' to all those who prayed on her behalf, she says that in your merit, her situation is improving incredibly quickly...thank you."
