Crown Heights businessman Yossi Greenbaum, who was stricken with COVID-19 six and a half weeks ago, returned home on erev Shabbos after a hard battle with the virus.
Greenbaum was greeted by his children and grandchildren, who emotionally awaited his return from NYU Langone Hospital in Manhattan.
In a message to his family and friends, Yossi Greenbaum said, “Baruch Hashem, today I came home to my family, and was released after many days of being in confinement in the hospital. I want to thank you guys for all your tefillos, all your hachlatos, all the things that you did that were beyond the call of duty, that were amazing and showed achdus and love, and helped me survive,” he said.
“I can never fully express my hakaras hatov, but I want to say, I’m here, I’m back, I’m with my family, and you guys really helped me,” he said.
“There are not enough words to thank everyone from around the world who said Tehillim for my father-in-law over the past 43 days,” Chani Greenbaum, his daughter-in-law, told COLlive.
“Your Tehillim created beautiful Malachim who went to Hashem and demanded a refuah for our father, father-in-law and Zaidy,” she said.
“We are so grateful to everyone in the community for all the support we received during this difficult time,” the Greenbaum family said. “He still has a bit of a road to recovery but we are at the last stretch!”
“Please continue to say Tehillim for a complete refuah for Chaim Yosef Yitzchak ben Sima Leah,” they said.
