[Avodah] Should we be davening for R' Elyashiv to live?

[Joseph C. Kaplan]

"I don't think it's a Jewish thing to daven for the death of someone who is  
suffering. In fact, this suggestion is shocking to me."

When my family was confronted with this type of terrible situation for a very close personal friend, our teffilot were that God should treat him mercifully, and left the implementation of that mercy to God's judgment.
