Q. I have become a diabetic. I may not fast on any Taanis other than Yom Kippur. Does this mean I may never again say the Aneinu prayer like everyone else?

A. Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that you can still say Aneinu, but omit the phrase “beyom tzom taanisenu.” Hashem should indeed answer your tefilos and grant you a refuah shleima.
