SUNDAY , 16TH OF AV :
In the morning a Jew came into 770 . He was alarmed and panicking that his daughter had been in labor for over 24 hours and was in unbearable pain . Rabbi Junik put on Tefilin with the man , Davened with him , and then brought him into the Rebbe .
The Jew poured his heart out to the Rebbe . The Rebbe told him to say Kapitul # 71 in Tehillim and give $ 1.80 to
Tzedokah that is equal to 10 times Chai . The Rebbe continued by telling the man to tell his daughter to accept upon herself to give Tzedokah every Friday before lighting
Shabbos candles . The Rebbe continued , saying , “ You should do all this as quickly as possible and it will result in an easy birth !” Before the man left , the Rebbe told him to call back with the results .
The Rebbe then reprimanded Rabbi Junik saying : “ You should have told me right away . Don ’ t just assume that it is some religious matter .”
By the evening , not having heard about the birth , the Rebbe had someone call the hospital . When they contacted the man , he informed them that a granddaughter had just been born ! The expression on the Rebbe ’ s face showed his immense joy on receiving the news .
