The Challenge c)
Of Infertility

It is headed by an English- -1-\
born fertility expert, Dr.
Baruch Brooks, an Orthodox
man with 11 children, a
Ph.D. in embryology, and an
in-vitro fertilization (IVF)
mashgiach (religious supervi4
sor) at one of Jerusalem's
1
leading hospitals.
It is the newly establishe:f\
Zir Chemed, offering child-
less religious couples a
unique combination of med-
ical services and Halachic
supervision.
A non-profit organization,J
funded solely by private
donations, Zir Chemed pro-
vides access to renowned
Israeli fertility experts and
respected Torah authorities
for direct consultation, diag-
nostic testing, preliminary
treatment, strict supervision
and referral to fertility spe-
cialists in Israel's major hos-
pitals.
With many religious cou-
ples unsure of the Halachic
implications of today's
changing treatments; many
do not seek treatment at all.
Zir Chemed's Halachic con-
sultant and medical advisor, E,
an eminent rabbi who wishes)
to remain anonymous,
answers calls from couples in
Israel and abroad 24 hours a

and seminars on infertility,
and studying Jewish law,
have led this Orthodox rabbi
to amass a great amount of '1\
knowledge and cultivate the
best contacts on fertility in
the world. He cuts through
bureaucratic red-tape in hos7_/
pital centers, has direct. con- -\
tact with the world's finest
specialists and his opinion is
respected by Halachic
authorities as well as the
medical establishment.
Samuel, a young, reli-
gious, cancer patient from
the U.S., knew there was a
chance that chemotherapy
treatments would make him
sterile, so he froze his sperm
in a regular sperm bank, at
great expense, in the United
