Following two weeks of hospitalization, officials at Bnei Brak’s Mayanei HaYeshua Hospital report that the condition of HaGaon HaRav Shmuel Halevy Wosner Shlita took a turn for the worse over Shabbos.

It appears physicians have not been successful in battling the pneumonia the posek was diagnosed with upon his arrival. It is now reported the Torah giant’s kidneys are beginning to fail as well.

The tzibur is urged to be mispallel for Rav Shmuel ben Rochel bsoch kol cholei am yisrael.
