Abstract<br />
This research aims at examining parents’ healthcare experiences for children with Trisomy 13<br />
and 18 across three countries in the EU and the US, with emphasis on cultural, social and<br />
medical perspectives on their interaction with healthcare professionals. The study using<br />
semi-structured interviews explores how parents and children are wronged systematically;<br />
ways in which there can be a clear lack of communication, ethical dilemmas, and ways in<br />
which children with Trisomy 13 and 18 are stereotyped regarding the treatment that they are<br />
given. Going further into the principal outcomes, it is worth to note that the parents are<br />
essential in demanding their childrens’ care, as they actively dispute the medical<br />
professionals and fight for their children’s rights, if the latter face withdrawal of care, or even<br />
active unconsented palliative care. Additionally, the research addresses how parents attempt<br />
to strategize against these situations by forming parent support groups, both formally and<br />
informally, that allow better access to better healthcare facilities. Moreover, there are the<br />
further findings of the research – the research shows that there exist serious violations of<br />
ethical principles such as the principle of informed consent, the criterion of proportionality<br />
and human rights violations with regards to equal access of medical care for the disabled. The<br />
research shows that there is a need to design and implement better and sensitive health care<br />
practices that respect the views of families with T13/18. For example, it advocates for<br />
increased understanding of profession and parent communication, increased support of family<br />
members and more attention paid to discrimination against children with T13/18 in<br />
healthcare. These findings advance the knowledge in the field of Medical Anthropology,<br />
Disability Studies, and Genetic Counseling that can be useful in the future health care<br />
practices and policies for the families of the children with genetic disorders.<br />
Acknowledgements<br />
This dissertation is dedicated to my daughter, Marita, who was born on July 31, 2018, and sadly passed away<br />
on September 1, 2018. I may never know if she would have survived had she received the care typically afforded<br />
to a child unaffected by a chromosomal anomaly. My daughter was denied even the most basic care, such as<br />
water and food. I extend my deepest gratitude to those parents who have entrusted me with their stories and to<br />
the children who have shared their profound joy and love for life with me. In particular, this dissertation is<br />
especially dedicated to Febe, who tragically passed away, most likely unnecessarily, while I was in the process<br />
of writing this dissertation. I also wish to thank everyone who supported me in various ways. Special thanks go<br />
to Professor Jonathan Gross at DePaul University, Chicago, who never stopped believing in my work.<br />
Preface<br />
It&#8217;s January 25, 2018. I&#8217;m about to walk the dog, feeling good, when the phone rings and my obstetrician speaks<br />
in an aggressive tone: &#8220;You haven&#8217;t looked up your NIPT (Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing) results!&#8221; I calmly<br />
respond, &#8220;Yes, indeed,&#8230;&#8221; I try to explain that I decided not to look them up. Upon returning home, I felt I had<br />
been somewhat pressured into this. She had said, &#8220;It&#8217;s good to test because you and your husband (&#8220;Who says I<br />
am married?&#8221;, I remember thinking.), will be able to provide better care for your child in case it has a genetic<br />
disorder like Down syndrome. You’re 38 years old, don’t you think it’s a good idea?&#8221; I had answered, “If this<br />
test is meant to help me get better care for my baby… if I can use it to inform myself, and if it’s not going to be<br />
used against me or my child or my family…I would like to do it.” Thus we proceeded.<br />
&#8220;But will my child get better care?&#8221; I later wondered. &#8220;Why should I do a genetic test if any child is more than<br />
welcome? Wasn’t I causing myself a lot of worries and difficulties by knowing, instead of enjoying the bliss of<br />
not knowing? What would this knowledge and the accompanying stress do to my child?&#8221; The obstetrician told<br />
me she wouldn’t look up the results, and I had trusted her. “It’s your own responsibility; I won’t do it for you,”<br />
she said in a snarky tone, while handing me a post-it with a login and password. Today she calls me, seemingly<br />
enraged, and I don’t get a chance to stop her. She interrupts me and continues shouting statistical facts through<br />
the phone.<br />
&#8220;Your child has a 43% chance of Edwards syndrome. It’s similar to Down syndrome but much worse. It comes<br />
with curved legs and arms, rock-bottom feet,&#8230; It will never be able to walk or speak. It&#8217;s the worst possible<br />
disability there is. When are you coming in?&#8221;<br />
I sit down on the puppy&#8217;s crate. He keeps pulling at his leash, eager to go out, and doesn’t pay attention to my<br />
phone conversation. Nature calls. I breathe deeply, trying to buy some time, and respond, “Why should I exactly<br />
come in?” I notice a hint of irony in my voice—a tone I would later recognise in other parents&#8217; voices, much<br />
later, after my daughter had passed away and I finally connected with them.<br />
The obstetrician sighs and exclaims, &#8220;YOU SHOULD COME IN FOR YOUR APPOINTMENT. THERE IS<br />
NO TIME TO LOSE,&#8221; then continues, &#8220;You were already late,&#8221; this time in an accusatory tone. (&#8220;Being<br />
pregnant is not being sick,&#8221; I remember thinking to myself. I was barely two months pregnant when I had<br />
contacted her.) &#8220;Which appointment?&#8221; I ask. (&#8220;A 43% chance of Edwards syndrome?” What on earth does that<br />
mean? “Is the baby going to be half disabled?”, I remember thinking while drifting away into cynicism.<br />
Thoughts are racing through my head at this point.) Before I have a chance to ask for further clarifications, she<br />
rambles on:<br />
&#8220;&#8230;IN BELGIUM WE ABORT SUCH CHILDREN. YOU SHOULD COME IN FOR YOUR<br />
APPOINTMENT!!&#8221;<br />
I now understand what &#8220;your appointment&#8221; means when she explains her cultural understanding of the matter.<br />
This was also my first encounter with a typical discursive practice around NIPT, abortion, and having a child<br />
with a trisomy disorder. &#8220;Coming in for your appointment&#8221; clearly meant &#8220;in Belgium we abort such children&#8221;,<br />
the &#8220;appointment&#8221; was the &#8220;abortion appointment,&#8221; and “aborting such children&#8221;, apparently a normal procedure<br />
here.<br />
Calmly and politely, I clarify my position: &#8220;Whether to abort my child or not is still a decision to be made by me<br />
and me alone, in whichever country I live.&#8221; I am not necessarily pro-life, nor am I pro-abortion. However, I am a<br />
feminist, and nobody decides over my body and the little foetus growing inside me but me.<br />
My experience also has a personal component. Following the standard DSM definition, I could be seen as<br />
disabled (cf. I am diagnosed on the autism spectrum). Yet, I strongly align with how autistic sociologist Judy<br />
Singer described our neurological difference: we’re neurodivergent, not disabled. Strictly speaking, we’re not<br />
even necessarily autistic in the negative sense of the word. I have other qualities, other capabilities. I know my<br />
value, and I have equal rights. My future disabled child has equal rights too.<br />
&#8220;My dog needs a walk. I&#8217;ll call you back later. Thank you so much for your call,&#8221; I manage to politely utter. As I<br />
put down the phone, I feel an incredible sense of unsafety in and around my body. I tremble as I walk into the<br />
woods behind the house. Walking through the forest, I listen to the sounds around me, while the dog happily<br />
runs about. There seem to be no problems here… until I lose sight of him and find him standing on the ice of the<br />
little lake. He&#8217;s looking at me with terrified eyes. I&#8217;m terrified too. What have I gotten myself into? We&#8217;re both<br />
on thin ice&#8230; and I’ve made a huge mistake consenting with this NIPT.<br />
While helping the dog out of his precarious situation, I somehow come to terms with what just happened. The<br />
doctor, whom I had confided in, had literally pulled the rug out from under me. Weren’t these results supposed<br />
to be used to &#8220;improve and provide better healthcare for my child in case she would have a genetic disorder?&#8221; I<br />
wasn’t even thinking about how she had looked up my results while saying she wouldn’t. It didn’t sit well with<br />
me that now, all of a sudden, “better healthcare” was being translated into a—supposedly, if I could believe<br />
her—national procedure to abort “such children.” How trustworthy was this NIPT actually? I wanted to run, as<br />
far away as I could. This wasn’t really happening&#8230; THIS WAS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN TO ME, TO<br />
US&#8230; At that moment, I even thought I could escape from it.<br />
I walked, almost ran back to the house. I felt so small, so vulnerable, so full of adrenaline… I’m back at the<br />
house and call the hospital: &#8220;I am calling in reference to my earlier conversation with Dr. X, you might know<br />
about it?” “Yes”, mumbles the nurse. “I am calling to say I am withdrawing consent in sharing my and my<br />
daughter&#8217;s medical files with any other hospital, including my GP.&#8221; The nurse responded: &#8220;This is not how<br />
things work over here, maybe it&#8217;s different in the Netherlands.&#8221; (I have a Dutch accent.) &#8220;Yes this is how things<br />
work over here,&#8221; I respond firmly, &#8220;I live here. I was born and raised here and I am aware of my rights. I do have<br />
a right to medical confidentiality as any other person does. This right applies to my and my child&#8217;s medical files.<br />
Also in Belgium. So again, I am asking you to clearly include in my medical files and those of my child, that<br />
there is no consent to share them with anyone. Also not my GP. Please can you make sure to have a copy<br />
available? I&#8217;d like to pick it up as soon as possible. I’ll drop by in 30 minutes. If it&#8217;s not ready, I’ll wait.&#8221;<br />
An hour later, files in hand, I find myself buying a newspaper in the city centre. I need something to ground<br />
myself in reality. But while reading the newspaper, I can’t stop thinking: “This is not my world anymore.<br />
Nothing in this newspaper relates to me. I am here, you are all there. I’m in a different world. I’m falling into an<br />
abyss that you all don’t know about. What is happening to me…?” Then the phone rings. My GP: “I just had a<br />
call and heard you picked up your files from the hospital?” “There is no consent to share my files.” At this point<br />
I feel I am getting angry. My patience is gone. “Yes, I know,” she rambles on, but I am barely able to receive<br />
what she says, and feel myself sinking away, deeper and deeper, until I hear: “But don’t you think that if the<br />
doctor advises you to abort, it would be wise to listen to her? Don’t you think the doctor knows better?&#8221;<br />
That afternoon, I contact my former GP in the Netherlands and politely ask for a referral to the nearest Dutch<br />
hospital. I am Dutch, live on the Dutch-Belgian border, and am insured in both countries (a luxury not everyone<br />
has). I firmly believe that crossing the border, I would find a welcoming and nurturing environment—a place<br />
where my possibly disabled child would be treated as an equal citizen. If I had only known.<br />
Introduction<br />
This dissertation explores the experiences of families of children with Trisomy 13 and 18<br />
(T13/18), two severe genetic disorders, within the healthcare systems of three countries in the<br />
European Union (Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany), as compared to experiences of<br />
parents in the American healthcare system. The research investigates the extent to which the<br />
differing views of parents and physicians regarding the care of children with these genetic<br />
disorders influences parents’ experiences when they encounter negative eugenics.<br />
Additionally, the study seeks to identify the culturally specific strategies that families employ<br />
in response to these challenges. The study will compare parental experiences in the healthcare<br />
systems of the US, characterised by a typical litigiousness and overwhelming fear of being<br />
sued for medical malpractice, and these three countries in the EU, in order to understand how<br />
modern-day eugenics is constituted in both the prenatal and postnatal context in these<br />
Western societies.<br />
A key aspect in the disability debate is the evaluation of the role of medicine in<br />
defining disability in Western societies. As Foucault (1976, p. 252) argues, in biopolitical<br />
states, ‘medicine becomes a political intervention-technique with specific power-effects.<br />
Medicine is a form of power-knowledge that can be applied to both the body and the<br />
population’. Similarly, Oliver (1990, Ch. 3) contends that the category of ‘disability’ is<br />
socially constructed and fluid, able to resolve systemic contradictions within a given society.<br />
Moreover, once certain groups are classified within this category, it becomes difficult, if not<br />
impossible, for them to be excluded, creating a ‘distributive dilemma’ for states that can be<br />
addressed in different ways depending on their mode of production. Oliver (1990, Ch. 3)<br />
suggests that distribution based on needs may indicate the emergence of a socialist system,<br />
while distribution based on costs may reflect a capitalist mode of production.<br />
As Foucault argues, in its most extreme forms this ‘distributive dilemma’ manifests in<br />
biopolitical societies in forms of ‘racism’. Foucault (1976, p. 255-259) argues that ‘racism’,<br />
is ‘primarily a way of introducing a break into the domain of life that is under powers&#8217;<br />
control: the break between what must live and what must die’. According to him, racism may<br />
be seen as processes of stigmatisation, abandonment, rejection, expulsion and discrimination,<br />
on the one hand. Or, on the other hand, as processes of killing or indirect killing&#8230;</p>

Jeffrey and I had an uplifting conversation, he inspired me to get back to a routine to exercise. Thanks Jeffrey. Paul</p>
<p>Here is the last thought from his book.</p>
<p>&#8220;And now, at the start of my seventh decade and after more than 13 years of endurance adventures that include successes I never thought possible, I find myself at a crossroads. I have stopped planning, beyond the World Majors. Instead, I will let my body and my desires at the time decide for me. What I know, though, is this: I want to always live a life of challenge and audacity in everything that I do. Eventually, age and presumably illness will take their toll and I will no doubt be forced to cede ground, but I will do so only reluctantly and hopefully with dignity. I will give age its due but not embrace it as an excuse to coast. Anything, or, more realistically, almost anything, is possible.

<p>For Immediate Release:  <strong>Dr. Lee is available for Interviews ASAP</strong></p>
<p>New York, NY &#8211; The Knowledge Recovery Foundation Institute (KRFI) has been involved with a natural, botanical drug product derived from <strong>the bark of the Voacanga iboga plant</strong> <strong>, known as ibogaine.</strong> To date, numerous European organizations and Stanford University have reported the use of IBOGAINE WITH GREAT SUCCESS.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Myung Hi Sonserai Lee, the founder of KRFI, states,</strong> <strong>Public Benefit Corporation with 501(c)(3) </strong><strong> </strong></p>
<p>We have been working on this for 40 years. We are excited to see New York pass a bipartisan bill, <strong><u>Senate Bill S1817</u></strong>, which requires the NYS Governor Hochul and Commissioner Cunningham of the NYS Office of Addiction Services and Supports (OASAS) to encourage, aid, and facilitate clinical research into the use of ibogaine in drug treatment, opioid, and substance addiction.  Send your petition signature and a letter requesting <strong>NYS Governor Hochul</strong> and <strong>Commissioner Cunningham of the NYS Office of Addiction Services and Supports (OASAS) </strong><strong>to sign the bill by January 2026, to meet the NYS Senate and Assembly deadline. Texas, California, and other states and countries are proceeding with research and legal implementation. </strong><strong><a href="http://www.krfi.org">www.krfi.org</a></strong></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Myung Hi Sonserai Lee, the founder of KRFI, states,</strong><strong> * * </strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>We have been working on this for 40 years, and we are excited to see New York pass a bipartisan bill, <strong><u>Senate Bill S1817</u></strong>, which requires the NYS Governor Hochul and Commissioner Cunningham of the NYS Office of Addiction Services and Supports (OASAS) and supports to encourage, aid, and facilitate clinical research into the use of ibogaine in drug treatment, opioid, and substance addiction.  Send your petition signature and a letter requesting <strong>NYS Governor Hochul</strong> and <strong>Commissioner Cunningham of the NYS Office of Addiction Services and Supports (OASAS) </strong><strong>to sign the bill by January 2026, to meet the NYS Senate and Assembly deadline. </strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Contact <u><a href="http://www.krfi.org/NYS">www.krfi.org/NYS</a></u> Ibogaine Research Bill.  Write to <u><a href="mailto:Governor.Hochul@exec.ny.gov">Governor.Hochul@exec.ny.gov</a></u>, and Senator Rodriguez for (<u>BiPartisan Bill A6210 and </u><u>S1817</u><u>)</u> Write to: <a href="mailto:Chinazo.Cunningham@OASAS.ny.gov">Chinazo.Cunningham@OASAS.ny.gov</a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>KRFI looks forward to the Governor of New York implementing the bill, which could potentially save many people from addiction to opioids and Substance Use conditions for recovery.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>KRFI is part of a private-public sector partnership consortium for Americans for Ibogaine that supports the Texas State Government in passing a bipartisan bill that allocated $ 50 million to ibogaine clinical trials.  KRFI, over the past 40 years, has developed Original Ibogaine extraction and formulation IPs with Access for Benefit Sharing of the IPs and the Royalty based private public sector partnership with Biodiversity + Carbon credits for partnering States/Countries that will immediately allow for U.S. trials to begin and is reaching out to a matching fund by Global Mental Health Security Fund for the NYS $300 million Ibogaine Clinical Research Bill.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s bring everyone together to rally behind healing. Investors, wellness practitioners, advocates &#8211; Let&#8217;s help pass this bipartisan bill. To help proceed, here is a link for the supporting bill: Go to:  <strong><u><a href="https://www.nysenate.gov/legislation/bills/2025/S1817">https://www.nysenate.gov/legislation/bills/2025/S1817</a></u></strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Additionally, KRFI is organizing a</strong> <strong>SUMMIT in New  York</strong> on December 11 and 12, 2026. Topics to be included:  <u><a href="http://www.krfi.org/NYS">www.krfi.org/NYS</a></u> Ibogaine Research Bill petition</p>
<p><strong>Support for Ibogaine has come from a private-public sector partnership, including grants and donations from the NYS Ibogaine Research Bill, as well as matching fund sponsors/investors, and consortium members for clinical trial alliances.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Bryan Hubbard (Financial Times)</strong> – <em>Economic Case for Recovery Investment: “ </em></p>
<p><em>Americans for Ibogaine unites clinicians, researchers, and advocates to promote science-based awareness and reduce stigma around ibogaine therapy. Through education, policy engagement, and community partnerships, we strive to expand safe and legal access to medically supervised care.”</em></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>George Soros </strong>– <em>Philanthropy &amp; Global Mental Health Finance</em></p>
<p><em>“I am deeply touched by your thoughtfulness and by the Questors: Global Mental Health Summit Committee’s recognition of my work in the field of mental health. Our work and actions have always been rooted in legality, transparency, and integrity. The truth will stand clear, revealing that my efforts have always been dedicated to the right cause and the greater good.    The trust and support I have received over the years from individuals, organizations, and institutions like the Knowledge Recovery Institute serve as a foundation of credibility. Together, these relationships will continue to inspire confidence and foster unlimited growth in our shared mission to improve mental health worldwide.”</em></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>NBA player Stéphane Lasme has stated· <em>“Beyond physical trauma, players grapple with anxiety and identity loss after their careers end. Ibogaine has been a &#8216;game-changer&#8217; for mental health, helping players find a new perspective and reconnect with themselves.</em>”</p>
<p>NBA player Lamar Odom discusses his ibogaine treatment; “<em>he has recovered a sense of choice, even during tough life moments like losing his &#8216;best man&#8217; (Kobe Bryant), and in other situations that would have previously been triggers for him to return to drugs. &#8220;Just as fast as I say cocaine,&#8221; Lamar reflects, &#8220;the thought of it leaves my mind.&#8221; This interview is a testament to Odom&#8217;s recovery, which he attributes to ibogaine, to will, and to God, and serves as inspiration to others facing personal challenges. &#8220;Now I just wanna try to use my story to help people, because if I could get through that… I know they could; it shouldn&#8217;t take 12 strokes and 6 heart attacks for anybody else to get through it</em>.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Conor McGregor, MMA Champion, “ Ibogaine save my life and my family.” 11/25/2025. </strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Currently, active clinical trials are being conducted in Norway, Canada, and the UK<strong>. The Ibogaine Clinical Research Act is seeking a global alliance for the clinical trial and drug supply chain security through Access for Benefit Sharing &#8211; IP model.</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>*</strong> <strong>Iboga is a rainforest perennial shrub (Voacanga iboga), from which IBOGAINE is derived, native to Central Africa. A member of the Apocynaceae family, indigenous to Gabon, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the Republic of the Congo, it is cultivated across Central Africa for its medicinal and other effects.  KRFI has identified central and South American cultivars for indigenous collective production under Access for Benefit Sharing and IP registration for the local PPP framework, and In-country coordination for the Ministry of Health Mental Health Program and UNCED.</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>**</strong><strong> We request that the New York State Senate and Assembly introduce and pass a bipartisan bill authorizing by January 2026:<br />
&#8211; Allocation of NYS  $12 Bn Opioid Settlement Funds for OASIS Commission for Opioid Abatement for FDA-approved Ibogaine trials “An Ibogaine Clinical Research Bill”<br />
&#8211; Establishment of the Mental Health Security Hyperledger Security (1) Access for Benefit Sharing &#8211; Intellectual Property Rights (ABS-IP) for a PPP framework for secure clinical and supply chain data on the hyperledger dashboard</strong></p>
<p><strong><br />
&#8211; State adoption of the Natural Medicine Health Act for plant-based treatment research and veterans and indigenous tribes for health equity by the In-state Clinical Trial Management and Reporting  partnership (CTMS-Reporting) for the first responders and practitioner training for pharmacovigilance (Drug &#8211; Drug interactions affecting our society) on entheogenic ibogaine and psychedelics </strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>This bill would create a legal and financial framework for New York to lead national policy on breakthrough addiction treatments.</strong></p>

<p class="yiv3381312404MsoNormal">“In this fascinating and personal book, Dr. David Weill takes us on a journey to understand his Jewish identity and heritage. It can be a guide for anyone who is searching for an elusive sense of belonging.”</p>
<p class="yiv3381312404MsoNormal"><b>—Walter Isaacson</b></p>
<p class="yiv3381312404MsoNormal" align="center"><b><span style="color: #cc0000;">A heartfelt memoir about the search for religion and identity</span></b></p>
<p class="yiv3381312404MsoNormal">“I’m not Jewish.” For years, that’s what <b>David Weill </b>told anyone who asked about his religious background. Yes, his father was a Jew who had left Nazi Germany as a boy. But his mother was a Southern Baptist. Growing up in New Orleans, religion wasn’t something his family discussed, let alone practiced. As an adult, he developed a fervent zeal and profound devotion to his work as a specialist in organ transplants. Transplantation was all he needed to define and fulfill him—until a crisis shook him to the core.</p>
<p class="yiv3381312404MsoNormal">As a boy, Weill’s only experience with religion was when he accompanied Deborah, the family’s domestic help and his second mother figure, to her all-Black Baptist church. As a young doctor, he fell in love with Jackie, a nurse from rural Iowa and a devout Catholic. Much to the chagrin of her parents, they were married in a Dallas hotel rather than a church. After settling in Palo Alto, close to Stanford University Medical Center where Weill headed the heart and lung transplant program, their two daughters were baptized and confirmed at a local Catholic church. When his oldest daughter, Hannah, was around ten and asked him why he never joined them at mass on Sundays, he told her, “I’m not Catholic.” She looked at him, brow furrowed, and raised a question that would prove to haunt him, “What are you then?”</p>
<p class="yiv3381312404MsoNormal"><b>TELL ME I BELONG </b>follows David Weill’s search for the answer. In 2015, after the simultaneous unraveling of his carefully crafted career and the death of his father, Weill began to doubt everything, including his purpose in life. While grappling with emotional pain and sinking deeper into despair, he began to suffer perplexing physical symptoms. In his moment of crisis, he was seized by a strong desire to practice a formal religion. But for Weill, the real question was, <i>Which religion?</i> Eventually, he chose Catholicism and was baptized at age fifty. He found solace in heart-to-heart talks with a priest and his daughters’ happiness at having the whole family at church together. Everything was fine—until 2020, when he learned that his mother had converted to Judaism right before marrying his father. He was born a Jew. And in the eyes of the Jewish faith, he would always be Jewish. That realization sparked his second quest. In an interview, David can talk about:</p>
<p>·         What drew his mother, a native of Selma, Alabama, to Judaism—partly because, to quote her, Jews “always seemed like such practical people,” and largely as a rejection of Baptists who preached love for all God’s children and practiced racism.</p>
<p>·         His father’s complicated sense of being Jewish, which he viewed as a source of pride for its association with smart and successful people while remaining wary of being ostracized or stigmatized for the religion he was born into.</p>
<p>·         His determination, with the help of investigators, to learn more about his grandfather’s time imprisoned in the Buchenwald concentration camp, and the role of his famous relative, the composer Kurt Weill, in orchestrating his family’s escape to the United States.</p>
<p>·         His heart-wrenching trip to Berlin, accompanied by his daughter Hannah, to find his father’s first home, and the inner work of defining himself.</p>
<p class="yiv3381312404MsoNormal">Ultimately, David Weill made peace with who he is and where he belongs. “I am not turning away from Catholicism as much as I am embracing Judaism, because it is mine, always was,” he reflects. “It  just took me a while to get there.”</p>

<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">Before daylight in the cold morning air, nearly 100 people stood bundled in hats and coats, their empty carts parked outside an Upper Manhattan church pantry.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">A line had begun forming on the sidewalk outside the Church of the Good Shepherd, a Catholic church in the Inwood neighborhood, at least an hour before the pantry was scheduled to open Saturday.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">The group of people gathered, which included many older and middle-aged adults, came seeking canned goods and fresh produce like green onions, pears and cranberries, fearful that their refrigerators and cabinets could soon be empty as it <a class="css-yywogo" title="" href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/10/31/us/snap-food-stamps-aid.html">remained unclear</a> whether the food stamp program would continue to be funded.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">As the government shutdown passed the one-month mark and the Trump administration said it <a class="css-yywogo" title="" href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/11/03/us/politics/snap-food-stamps-trump.html">would make only partial payments</a> in November to sustain the program — known as Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP — roughly <a class="css-yywogo" title="" href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/10/31/us/politics/federal-judge-food-stamps.html">42 million people were at risk</a> of receiving food aid late and in reduced amounts, including nearly 1.8 million New York City residents.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">Stepping in to be a lifeline for families felt like second nature for some churches in New York City.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">“We’ve always done this,” said Father George Sears, pastor of the Church of Good Shepherd, who was bagging food in the hallway with volunteers at 7 a.m. on Saturday, preparing to feed over 450 people.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">Many religious institutions have continued to make it their mission to provide food and meals to those in need, even as membership and <a class="css-yywogo" title="" href="https://www.pewresearch.org/religion/2025/02/26/decline-of-christianity-in-the-us-has-slowed-may-have-leveled-off/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">attendance at services have declined</a>. In many cases, more people line up for their pantries than sit in their pews.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">Pantries have long filled the gap for people who don’t qualify for food stamps or whose benefits don’t stretch far enough. The threat of reductions or funding delays has put the programs under new strain.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">Met Council, the <a class="css-yywogo" title="" href="https://metcouncil.org/about-us/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">largest Jewish nonprofit organization</a> in the country, serves more than 200 locations across New York City, and last week, it saw a 17 percent increase in turnout and is preparing for a 40 percent boost this week, according to the organization’s chief executive, David G. Greenfield.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">In New York City, there are about 600 food pantries scattered across the five boroughs. Gilford Monrose, executive director of Faith-Based and Community Partnerships in the mayor’s office, said at least 90 percent of those pantries are run by either a religious organization or a nonprofit connected to a place of worship.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">“As pie is to America, I would say food pantry would be to churches,” Mr. Monrose said. “Especially houses of worship in low-income neighborhoods.”</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">In Inwood, Ama Kofi, 51, stepped in line at 7:45 a.m. with her two neighbors from the Bronx. Ms. Kofi said the church pantry, which is open weekly, eases her anxiety about putting food on the table for her husband and three children.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">“It doesn’t stress me because I know if I come here, I’ll get something,” she said.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">In the two years she has used the pantry, Ms. Kofi has seen a rise in the number of people who need food.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">“There are so many people that come here that don’t qualify for food stamps but they need it,” she said, holding her ticket, No. 219.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">Paul Kwon, the food pantry coordinator, said the pantry, which collaborates with Cabrini Immigrant Services, helps more than 400 people each week.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">He said the government’s reluctance to sustain SNAP made him “furious.” The pantry he leads is trying to stay afloat after a $20,000 loss in funding from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, after the Trump administration took back <a class="css-yywogo" title="" href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/nyregion/doge-migrant-hotel-shelters.html">$80 million</a> that New York received for migrants. The reduction has led the pantry to cut back, he said, and clients are noticing that “the bags aren’t as full.”</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">Mr. Kwon said the pantry spent around $4,600 a week on food assistance, funded by donors and federal, state and local aid. With demand high, the pantry has relied more on community fund-raisers and food drives. As of this year around 35 percent of people who use their pantry are SNAP recipients.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">Because of the growing need, his pantry will stay open for an extra hour from 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. starting on Nov. 15.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">According to the <a class="css-yywogo" title="" href="https://frac.org/blog/characteristics-report-by-usda-provides-insights-into-who-participates-in-snap" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Food Research and Action Center</a>, 39 percent of children, 20 percent of seniors and 10 percent of disabled people across the country depend on SNAP to put food on their tables each month.</p>
<p>Grocery prices have increased around <a class="css-yywogo" title="" href="https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/CUSR0000SAF11" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">20 percent</a> since 2020, leaving people who may not have religious affiliations dependent on their neighborhood church pantry.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><span class="css-jevhma e13ogyst0">Some who line up at the Church of the Good Shepherd in Inwood are elderly; many do not attend church services.</span><span class="css-14fe1uy e1z0qqy90"><span class="kyt-mdd4r">Credit&#8230;</span><span aria-hidden="false">Marco Postigo Storel for The New York Times</span></span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">Alixa Cruz, 70, a retired office worker, walked with a cane from her public housing apartment to the pantry at St. Peter’s Chelsea, an Episcopal church. Ms. Cruz is not a member of St. Peter’s, but comes to find reasonable nutritious foods that would be outside her budget otherwise.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">In a year, she went from seeing the funds on her SNAP card drop from $300 to a bit under $190 a month, but said every little bit still counts.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">“SNAP helps me because you cannot live in the city,” Ms. Cruz said. “Everything is expensive.”</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">In the Bronx, Lowell Murray, 48, a former contractor, sat on a black stool he brought from home while waiting for the Throggs Neck Community Alliance’s food giveaway to start at the Church of St. Benedict, a Catholic church on Otis Avenue.</p>
<section class="meteredContent css-ar1ez3">
<div class="css-s99gbd StoryBodyCompanionColumn" data-testid="companionColumn-6">
<div class="css-53u6y8">
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">Mr. Murray, who said he was not able to work for health reasons, said his neighborhood pantry was a resource for healthy food that could be “expensive” even with SNAP.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">Angela Torres, executive director of the Throggs Neck Community Alliance, said there was already an intense need for food aid in the Bronx, which has the highest percentage of <a class="css-yywogo" title="" href="https://www.health.ny.gov/press/releases/2024/2024-01-03_food_insecurity.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">food insecurity</a> among city boroughs.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">The pantry serves roughly 450 people weekly, she said, and recipients are on edge. “It already wasn’t enough,” Ms. Torres said. “Without SNAP, they are desperate.”</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">In Inwood, Ethlyn Colbourne, 81, who is retired and relies on her children, said all she could do was wait to check her SNAP card for funds.</p>
<p class="css-ac37hb evys1bk0">“Maybe they will change their mind or something will happen,” Ms. Colbourne said, pushing her cart slowly. “I’m just waiting.”</p>

<p>When it comes to protein, most people think they need to reach for the steak or the chicken. The tasty truth bomb is plants can satiate your protein cravings, and more.</p>
<p>Raising animals for food is responsible for <a href="https://time.com/6332332/rising-livestock-emissions-undermine-climate-fight/">14.5% of greenhouse gas emissions</a> across the world and is expected to account for nearly <a class="nitro-offscreen" href="https://oggardenonline.com/how-much-of-animal-husbandry-contributes-to-greenhouse-gas-emissions.html">half of global emissions by 2030</a>. Livestock guzzles water, uses up land, and leaches pollutants into our air and water.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Not to mention, the way we treat farm animals is abhorrent. <a href="https://worldanimalfoundation.org/advocate/factory-farming-statistics/">90% of the world’s agricultural  animals are living in factory farms</a>, confined in cramped, barren cages or pens that prevent basic natural behaviors. Every year, <a href="https://ourworldindata.org/how-many-animals-are-factory-farmed">100 billion animals are killed </a>for their meat and other parts of their bodies. To make matters worse, roughly<a href="https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/one-million-human-deaths-linked-to-factory-farming-set-to-double-by-2050-301792539.html"> 84% of antibiotics</a> given to factory-farmed animals are not used to treat illness, but to promote growth or prevent disease in overcrowded conditions. What is more, these practices are strongly linked to the rise of antibiotic-resistant “superbugs,” which were connected to 975,000 human deaths in 2019.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">In contrast, plants like beans, lentils, tofu, and nuts are the quiet eco-heroes of your pantry, feeding your body and healing the Earth at the same time. All without animal cruelty. Here’s a lineup of 7 delicious, nutrient-packed, planet-friendly proteins ready to revolutionize your plate.</p>
