The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Asher Weiss’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

So today is the yard site of theam and every year in this date we give a sh on and we analyze one of the chu and one of the fundamental of the was probably the greatest authority in his generation and if the title poas becomes somewhat cheap in our time. One could say that was the poor not only in his day and age and that was an age of giants and cyer has a very special place in the annals of the development and the history of balp. So today we will once again analyze and go through and try to learn one of the chas. Today she has dedicated and should sustain the good health of Welchure the mother of the Welchure brothers in Joel in South Africa. She should have and good health and from her beautiful children and grandchildren. Deals with a question which today bears less relevance. But until some years ago special needs children did not have many institutions alaharaes. In recent years, we have developed an awareness that we too have special needs children and not only others. And today in every major Jewish center community there are institutions deals with a question. A child that is mentally impaired and by definition he would be considered and defined having the status of a who is a mitzvah. Could he be put into a institution in which he will eat? That's the the source of this major suganim
