#5676 Gloves With Much Love
Question
Moreinu Horav Shlit"a. An accidentally paralyzed patient, now in hospital, is unable to put on now Tefillin by himself; can his wife as she often does with the help of their other children, help put on the tefillin when she is a Nidah (having her period)?
Answer
Horav Shlomo Miller Shlit"a ruled that when necessary, she should put on heavy non-hospital gloves and then place the Tefillin on her husband.
