Nothing can prepare a parent to hear the news of a terror attack and slowly discover that his son is among the eight shot down in cold blood. Nothing can prepare a father for the heartrending pain that burying his firstborn son brings. On March 6, 2008, my sixteen-year-old\u00a0<\/em><br \/>\n<em>son, Avraham David, was killed while studying in the Mercaz HaRav library in Jerusalem. On that day my life changed forever.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>In the first year of mourning my son, I often felt torn between the intimacy of loss and its public expression. In one tragic moment, my son had become a \u201cmartyr,\u201d and I, a \u201cbereaved parent.\u201d Having already buried his body, I worried how I could ever preserve his memory under the frequently too-bright lights of public attention. Mourning Under Glass explores the tensions between memory and memorial, between private pain and public mourning. Can any of our attempts at memorial adequately recall an extinguished life? Can any give voice to the nearly ineffable pain of loss?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><\/em><br \/>\nDr Moses website is here:<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"blocked::www.tragic-death.com\" href=\"www.tragic-death.com\">www.tragic-death.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>He will be presenting at Limmud this year.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"tweet_button112\" style=\"float: right; margin-left: 10px;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/share\" rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"twitter-share-button\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.raymondcook.net\/blog\/index.php\/2011\/09\/27\/mourning-under-glass-a-book-by-dr-naftali-moses\/\" data-text=\"\"Mourning Under Glass\" A book by Dr Naftali Moses - Ray Cook - As I See It\" data-count=\"horizontal\" data-lang=\"en\" data-via=\"tweetbutton\"  data-related=\"coderplus:Wordpress Tips and more.\"><\/a><\/div><p>I\u00a0was honoured to receive an email from Dr Naftali Moses who lost is firstborn son Avraham David in the attack on Mercaz HaRav in 2008.
