A Mother's Torture

There is a boy who used to live in Tenafly, NJ. After he graduated high school, he went back to the homeland of his family to volunteer to serve in their military. On October 7, 2023, he was kidnapped and has been held hostage since. A few times, it seemed like he was very close to coming home, but now that possibility has drifted further away. I can't even imagine what it must feel like to be his mother, the inner turmoil of not knowing if your child is okay, and not have any power to help him in his situation. This creation is dedicated to Edan's mother, and I continue to pray every day that the rest of the people who were kidnapped on that day will come home soon.
