[chicago-aneinu] Please Daven for HaRav Shteinman

Please pray and recite Tehillim for HaGaon Rav Aaron Aaron Leib Shteinman (Yehuda Leib ben Gittel Feige) As reported in The Yeshiva World News... HaGaon HaRav Aaron Leib Shteinman is experiencing strong pains in a leg, apparently due to an infection, making ambulation most difficult. During the days of Rosh Hashanah the Rosh Yeshiva walked from his home at 5 Chazon Ish Street in Bnei Brak to Yeshivas Gaon Yaakov on Nechemia Street, a walk that takes the Gadol HaDor 30 minutes. The Rosh Yeshiva davens in Gaon Yaakov every year, the yeshiva headed by a son-in-law, Rabbi Ze’ev Berlin to take part in tefilos musaf and shofar blowing. The Rav’s grandson is the bal tokea. Due to the infection and its accompanying pains and difficulty ambulating, the Rav remains home at this time. In past years, the Rosh Yeshiva delivers many shiurim during the Aseres Yimei Tshuva in Yeshivas Ponevezh and Slobodka, attracting thousands, but this year, he may cancel some or all of them due to the Rav’s physical condition.
