This morning we discuss the inspiring life of Paul Alexander, who passed away last week at the age of 78. At six years old, he contracted polio, and lived, paralyzed, in an iron lung for the next 72 years. Paul is one of the last people in the US to live in an iron lung. We discuss his incredible accomplishments, and two momentous lessons we learn from his life.
Michael Whitman is the senior rabbi of ADATH Congregation in Hampstead, Quebec, and an adjunct professor at McGill University Faculty of Law.

We take great pleasure in welcoming everyone with a warm smile, while sharing inspiration through prayer, study, and friendship.
