Mrs. Greenberg* could neither swallow or fall asleep due to severe throat pain. She had heard on A Life with Bitachon from R’ Yehuda Mendel that laughing and joking is the best medicine, so she took it into practice. She took a joke book; as she was reading it, it was so funny, and she started feeling better! She understood that Ein Od Milvado, and that laughter is what Hashem wants us to do. When you realize that there is nothing but Hashem, everything else disappears. And she felt like a brand new person; the pain had disappeared!
Laughing and joking is the best medicine!
[heard by R’ Zevy Golombeck]
