Question
I donated a kidney on 21.12.2021. According to the doctors, a year after the donation, one should drink normally. And after a year, on important fasts such as Tisha B'Av and Yom Kippur, drink in small measures. What should I do this year, considering the fast is deferred in terms of eating and drinking? Thank you very much.
Answer
This year, when Tisha B'Av is deferred, even someone suffering from discomfort who is not considered ill is exempt from fasting. Since in your condition there is a danger in fasting, you should eat on Tisha B'Av as usual. You should make Havdalah before eating.
