Re: Shbbos & Choleh Mishebeirach's
<SNIP>
Point? The Gemara SAYS: Shabbos hi mili'zok. But MOST communities ignore
this. Does that make it muttar ipso facto? 




Rashi over there (Shabbos 12a) makes it clear that the Gemara's formulation
is only when one is talking to the Choleh himself. Do you have a Makor that
it is Assur to pray for a Choleh on Shabbos? IIRC, the reason why we are not
Sho'el Tzarcheinu on Shabbos is because of Tirchah, but it is permitted if
one wishes to do so.
