The Satmar Rebbe Shlita from Kiryas Yoel (Rav Aron Teitelbaum), was hospitalized on Shabbos morning after not feeling well.
Sources tell YWN that a doctor was summoned to the Rebbe's home in Kiryas Yoel early Shabbos morning. He reportedly found the Rebbe to be severely dehydrated, and instructed the Rebbe to be hospitalized. Kiryas Yoel Hatzolah transported the Rebbe to Mount Sinai Hospital in Manhattan.
YWN has confirmed that the Rebbe is listed stable condition, and is under observation.
Please be Mispallel for Aron ben Pesel Leah.
Although it is not known if the two incidents are related, the Rebbe had a medical scare just two weeks ago on the first day of Rosh Hashana. In that incident, the Rebbe arrived at his Williamsburg Beis Medrash at around 8:00AM and began Davening. After about an hour the Rebbe began to sweat profusely, and was taken by a fit of chills, causing him to tremble uncontrollably.
The Rebbe was escorted from the Beis Medrash to his private room, where he continued to feel unwell. At this point the Rebbe was drained of all color, and collapsed onto a chair, unable to speak. Hatzolah members rushed to the room, and fearing for his heart, performed some quick tests to ascertain what the problem was.
They quickly ruled out any heart-related issues; rather, it was determined that the Rebbe was suffering from exhaustion and dehydration. The Rebbe indicated that the previous two nights, the night of Slichos of Erev Rosh HaShana, as well as the night of Rosh HaShana, he had risen well before daybreak and had hardly slept. In addition, he had drank nothing that morning, not wishing to consume any liquids until after hearing the blowing of the Shofar.
Although the possibility of the Rebbe traveling to the hospital for treatment was raised, he refused to consider doing so. At this point the Gabbaim and Hatzolah members tried to convince the Rebbe to make Kiddush and eat, but the Rebbe was loath to do that either. Instead, he requested that the medical personnel administer intravenous fluids, which they did. The Rebbe, feeling a little better, then lay down to sleep.
After about an hour, the Rebbe awoke, and feeling better, Davened Shachris with a small group of about twenty-five people.
By the time Krias HaTorah began, the Rebbe was able to join with the Chasidim in the main Beis Medrash. The Rebbe's condition continued to improve and the rest of Yom Tov passed uneventfully, with the Rebbe fully participating in all of the Tishen, Tefillos, and Ne'ilas HaChag as in previous years.
