Comments on: SZMC – Addressing Body and Soul http://www.jerusalemkoshernews.com/2009/06/szmc-%e2%80%93-addressing-body-and-soul/ Reporting on Kashrus in Eretz Yisrael Sat, 11 Feb 2012 07:35:37 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7.1 hourly 1 By: Suzanne Lieberman http://www.jerusalemkoshernews.com/2009/06/szmc-%e2%80%93-addressing-body-and-soul/comment-page-1/#comment-91 Suzanne Lieberman Wed, 10 Jun 2009 13:08:10 +0000 http://www.jerusalemkoshernews.com/?p=644#comment-91 One point you did not mention is that it is forbidden for visitiors to eat the Shabbat day meal, which is heated on Shabbat, in line of the halacha that one may cook food for a sick person. The nurse on duty in pediatrics told me that under no circumstances would I be able to eat it, and I passed on the message to all other parents. However, as my son was well enough to not be confined to a bed, I felt that we should not rely on heterim, and both took meals from the visitors' dining room, paying after Shabbat.
