    I know that one should not question Hashem but this is to much to bare.
    How What & Why.
    How can one make sense of 6 children and a husband suddenly left so alone
    What could this beautiful person have done so wrong to deserve this & What could 6 innocent children have done to deserve being left like this
    Why does this happen ?
    there is no answer ?
    simply heart wrenching
    my condolences to the family.
    may you be strong even though i don’t know how you can be.

    this is terrible and shocking news. there is no excuse for hashem to do this and take a mother away from her children. May the family be consoled.

      You see , hashem owed nobody any excuses not explanations. And if you think he does , start with an seeking an explanation why he created human before you seek explanations to why he makes them pass away
