The Modzitz Rebbe experienced weakness in his heart on the first night of Rosh Hashanah and was taken to Mayanei Hayeshua Medical Center. Despite recommendations from rescue forces, the Rebbe insisted on being admitted to the hospital. The following morning, on the holiday itself, he discharged himself with great devotion to lead the prayers, specifically the "Kol Nidrei" service, before the Ark at his synagogue. Members of the Hasidic community are calling for prayers for his recovery.
