Testimonials
"Thank you for taking the time to speak to our family, individually and together, during such a difficult time. The information you shared, offered with such sensitivity and empathy, was invaluable in helping us all understand what options we had from a halachic, medical, and ethical perspective. That knowledge and support gave us the clarity we needed to move forward. My father was able to live out the last few weeks of his life in dignity, in the comfort of his home, surrounded by loving family."
The Straum Family
"Rabbi Brody played an important and meaningful role in helping my 4 siblings and I navigate the issues we faced during my mother's illness and in her final days and hours. He was always accessible, he was thoughtful and compassionate, he knew what questions to ask and how to address our concerns, and he stayed in touch with us throughout the experience. We are all grateful for his concern, his wisdom, his availability and his sensitivity. His knowledge of the halachic, medical and ethical aspects involved, as well as his appreciation for our family dynamics, made his input invaluable."
Surie Rudoff
"Rabbi Brody listened to my questions, in light of the complex family dynamic and religious obligations, and helped me find the right path. He was available any time, night or day, and spoke directly with the doctors. Together, we developed a plan to meet all of these needs, even as the situation changed minute-to-minute. With the support of Ematai, I am sure that I made the best decisions possible"
