Tali, the mother of soldier Roy Gross who was severely injured in an elevator accident at the Kirya base in Tel Aviv about two weeks ago, wrote on Facebook that "Until today you never gave up on anything you wanted to achieve - now is the time to achieve the most important thing in the world, your life. We are here with you all the time, watching over and waiting, sending you strength and energy and already looking forward to your hug. We're counting on your determination and strength to return to us healthy in body and mind." His father Alon wrote: "We are waiting for you to wake up, and we won't move from your side until that happens."
