No with a check!!! My aunt and uncle can't come from Israel but they were SOOO generous with their check (moreso than they have ever been before) and gave us $360!!!! It was sooooo nice of them and was also the first check we;'ve gotten with a 'no'...so do these people send stuff later or are they just not gonna give at all??
Anyways its a double happy day because we got a check, and our No's are up which makes me less panicky!

Yup. The numerical value of the letters in the word Chai (life) adds up to 18... hence the gifts of $18 or $36+.
