Yafit and Daniel, Little Malachi’s parents, asked us to publish the thank you letter they gave to Dr. Gabi Amir, director of the neonatal cardiac surgery service at Schneider Children’s:

Dear “Dr. Gabi”, How do you say thank you for years of life? Words cannot to express our deep appreciation and gratitude to you and the wonderful cardiothoracic team. With sensitivity, intelligence and always with a smile – you were a beam of light in the darkness of fear and uncertainty and insecurity. With your characteristic pleasantness you
answered all our questions, calmed us, and gave us hope.

Through your good hands, in a very complex surgery – you have given our Malachi life. His heartbeat will echo your kindness every moment of the day, and if you want to be modest and say that this is your expertise and profession – for us nothing is taken for granted, and certainly in such a procedure .

Dear Dr. Gabi, on behalf of our Malachi – Thank you for all that you have done for us. Every smile on his face, every hug, laughter, and every moment of happiness we experience together will be sealed in your book of rights.

Appreciate and cherish forever,
Daniel and Yafit Gabai and little Malachi
