HH Jayapataka Maharaj’s status report by Dr Madhavananda das, Director of
Bhaktivedanta Hospital, Mumbai
Yesterday evening Maharaj was shifted to another ICU which is less intense
and is for patients who do not need a ventilator. It is more quiet here and
Maharaj finds it more comfortable here.
Today Maharaj was given a walker to try to stand but he was unable to
support his weight. Nevertheless he was made to sit in a normal chair and
was able to support his back and neck by himself. Later in the day he was
made to sit in a wheelchair and taken around the ICU.
The physiotherapy is going on intenslely and Maharaj is eager to be able to
walk soon.
His swallowing is also improving daily. He was able to eat and drink more
easily today.
Please continue your intense prayers.
