“Got your cell phone? Glasses? Wallet? ID?” I asked.

“Yes,” my husband Avraham smiled. “Can we go now? You've got to meet with your interviewer before I go to see my patient at one o'clock.”

“Right. Got your medical bag?”

“Yes.”

Even years after moving from North America, we still loved the half-hour drive to Jerusalem(耶路撒冷). The blue sky above the mountains, the trees, and the journey up to the Holy City always filled us with gratitude for living in Israel.

As we sped along, we came to our favorite part of the journey, where a wonderful view of Jerusalem suddenly appeared above the roadway. We had a good time and arrived at my meeting with time to spare.

After my interview, I met Avraham at our favorite cafe. Avraham ordered his daily iced coffee and a bag of fresh bread. Glancing at the clock, I suggested we go to see his patient.

Avraham had to visit an elderly woman in Jerusalem because her daughter had called the day before to arrange the appointment. As there were very few foot specialists in Israel, Avraham would travel all over the country to see patients requiring specialized foot care. He searched his pockets for a note on which he had written the address.

But the note was nowhere to be found.

“I don't believe it!I must have left the address at home.”

“Do you remember any part of the address?”I asked.

“I remember that there was a number 17 in it, because it was part of my birth date.”

“Do you know the street name?”

“No. Just that it's in this neighborhood.”

I had heard the family name mentioned the day before and remembered it sounded like a European name. “Let's try looking at buildings and see if the mailboxes can give us some help,” I offered.

Paragraph 1:

    We scanned the listings for the number 17 and two more nearby buildings.

Paragraph 2:

    We quickly went upstairs and knocked on a door.   

Possible answer:

We scanned the listings for the number 17 and two more nearby buildings. “Well,since we are already in the city, let's try one last building,” Avraham suggested, as he whispered a prayer for God's help in finding the right house with the uncertain address. We tiredly approached the entrance to an apartment house down another street and noticed all of the European names. Taking this as a good sign, we entered the entrance where we learned an elderly couple lived next door.

We quickly went upstairs and knocked on a door. An old man answered the door. Avraham carried the medical bag and explained, “I came here to  see my patient.” The delighted man warmly welcomed us, telling us his wife suffered from a variety of illnesses. Avraham soon conducted a thorough examination and suggested appropriate following-up care. They thanked us  with gratitude. Before we left, their daughter came, asking, “How did you know to come to see my mum? I didn't call!”
