"Amit was the sun in her life - when she was murdered, that sun shattered"

Haviva Man Itzison, sister of paramedic Amit Man, who was murdered in the Kibbutz Be'eri clinic, speaks in an interview with 103FM about Amit's heroism, the unceasing longing, and the way she and her family perpetuate her story and values through lectures and educational projects.

In an interview with 103FM, Haviva Man Itzison, sister of paramedic Amit Man, who was murdered in the Kibbutz Be'eri clinic on October 7, speaks about her sister's character. She describes Amit as the "sun in her life" that shattered with the murder, emphasizing that Amit only did good, saw others, saved lives, and spread smiles. Haviva shares that contrary to the cliché, time does not heal but only increases the longing and pain with the realization that Amit is not coming back. However, the family finds meaning in lectures about Amit's life story, focusing on life and light despite the pain and tragedy. Three of the four sisters give official lectures about Amit, each from her own perspective. Haviva tells about wonderful projects done in her memory, including opening a high school of Beit Eckstein in Pardes Hanna for children with difficulties in her name. The central message of the lectures is optimistic: how to live life and treat the one-time gift we received.
