Let me share with the world the letter I wrote to Dr. Farber when I found out he was retiring...
Dearest Dr. Farber,
I would very much like to thank you for everything you have done for me over the years. These past 43 years have certainly been a lifetime of memories.
From common colds to Chicken Pox, from Amoxicillin to vaccinations, you
have seen me through it all. There are no words for how lucky I feel for having you as my doctor.
I was so young that day I hid under your desk while you conferred with
another patient. I remember thinking and feeling that you had no idea I was
even there. But you did, didn't you, because you knew EVERYTHING. Nothing
slipped by you and I am forever grateful for that.
Fast forward a few decades and my decision to bring my children to you was
an easy one. I knew that if you were still practicing then they would be
privileged to have you as their pediatrician. Although their time with you was
not as long as mine, their memories of you are now, and always will be, just as pleasant.
We wish you all the best in your next life chapter. We wish you the happiest
retirement anyone can have. We hope all your days are filled with fishing trips and you continue to fill your walls with proud pictures of you and your award winning catches.
Take good care, Dr. Farber. Always know that you will be missed daily. Enjoy
all the days ahead of you knowing that you have been a positive force in all of our lives. For that, the words "Thank You" just don't seem enough.
Sincerely yours,
Tiffany Kazushner, Ethan Ben-Adiva & Abigail Ben-Adiva read more
