And on the contrary: we need to celebrate Purim this year in a completely different way.

""Yes, believe me, the miracles of Purim are not an event that used to be," said his mother, Vered. "But there is still a long way ahead of us, keep praying.".

At this point, he is still connected to 'Acmo'.

In the courtyard of the synagogue for young people, where he prays, dozens of members of the community gathered for happy dancing, in the open air.

Rabbi Dekel Levi, a 35-year-old priest, father of three children - the youngest of whom was only two years old - was initially hospitalized at Kaplan Hospital in Rehovot. After his condition deteriorated and his body systems collapsed, the doctors decided to connect him to an 'ECMO' - a heart-lung machine.

Since the hospital did not have a device available, he was transferred to Poriya Hospital in Tiberias - the only medical center that had a device available.

Due to his serious condition, they added the name 'Haim' to him.

His family and friends, community members, ask to pray for his complete recovery: Rabbi Chaim Dekel Halevi ben Vered.
