HH Jayapataka Maharaj’s status report by Dr Madhavananda das, Director of
Bhaktivedanta Hospital, Mumbai
Today Maharaj was taken to the physiotherapy department where he was made
to stand with support for about 20 minutes in two sessions. He was holding
on to a set of parallel bars on either side of him, with about 4
physiotherapists helping him to stand straight. Maharaj put in alot of
effort to stand up and is looking forward to his next session tomorrow. He
even asked the physiotherapist about when he would be taking baby steps.
The physiotherapist told him to first start standing on his own and then
they would proceed to baby steps.
He was also made to do different exercises to strenghten his right arm
which is weak.
Maharaj is stable otherwise.
