"My esteemed daughter, Mrs Ruthie Halberstadt, has written this excellent account of her own experience with HG and complications of pregnancy, as well as that of many others whom she has helped along the way. Reading it will give you some of the tools you need to get through a difficult pregnancy — and perhaps even find that you have become a greater person as a result." —Rabbi Dr. Akiva Tatz, MD"What this amazing book does is explain... how keeping the mother healthy, mentally, physically and spiritually, in turn benefits her baby. This beautifully written book is compelling reading. Ruthie's understanding of the condition from both a medical and personal perspective is truly impressive. Through her experience and intelligent analysis of 'the good, the bad and the ugly' aspects of this distressing condition, she is able to bring a form of peaceful spiritual acceptance, which I am confident will help other sufferers cope and give their friends and families important insight into the condition." —Professor Catherine Nelson-Piercy, Consultant Obstetric Physician, Guy's and Thomas' Hospital, London, England

![Mitzllal, Stranger Among Sisters]()
An Ethiopian Woman's Struggle for Serenity Upon Her Return to JerusalemShe journeyed, as a four-year-old, all the way from the backlands of Ethiopia...across raging rivers and arid deserts... over craggy mountains and narrow cliffs... until finally, depleted of all strength, she reached her longed-for destination: Eretz Yisrael. But the grueling two-year trek, during which many in her group lost their lives, turned out to be only the first part of Mitzllal’s personal journey... and the easiest part. What lay ahead of her was a struggle of such magnitude and pain that Mitzllal found herself wrestling with it for a full sixteen years after her emigration to the Holy Land.
It began on the day she was informed, in the land she thought of as finally her own, that she was a "sofek Yehudi” – a questionable Jew. And just like that, Mitzllal was thrown into an identity crisis that clawed at the very fibers of her being...
This is the story of Mitzllal, a soul-stirring story of physical hardship, inner turmoil, and eventual triumph. It is the story of the long and arduous climb that finally led this Ethiopian Jewish woman to finding true connection and peace of mind. Learn More
