HH Jayapataka Maharaj's status report by Dr Madhavananda das, Director of
Bhaktivedanta Hospital, Mumbai
Maharaj is more alert and is able to clearly understand what is being
spoken to him. He is trying to communicate using the alphabet board and
through his hand movements (which are limited due to weakness). Today HH
Sacinandana Maharaj and HH Candramauli Maharaj came to visit him. They had
a lively interaction with him. When HH Sacinandana Maharaj told Maharaj
that he had come earlier also to visit him, Maharaj showed two fingers
indicating that he remembers that Sacinandana Maharaj had come twice to
meet him which was accurate.
Maharaj ate a few teaspoons of khitchri today. His nutrition is still being
maintained by naso gastric feeds like before.
Maharaj is still on ventilatory support. The weaning process is going on.
Please continue your intense prayers for his quick recovery.
(17th Nov) By Dr Madhavananda das,Director of Bhaktivedanta Hospital,Mumbai:
HH Jayapataka Maharaj is stable in terms of consciousness. Using an
alphabet chart made by the devotees, Maharaj indicated the spelling of
'Haribol'. When he was asked whether he was saying Haribol to all the
devotees around the world, Maharaj emphatically nodded yes.
Dr NF Shah, the endocrinologist was quite positive today as the
insulin requirements are reducing which is a good sign, a sign of
gradual progressive recovery with decreasing stress levels.
However, Maharaj still requires ventilatory support.
Please continue to pray intensely.
(16th Nov) By Dr Madhavananda das,Director of Bhaktivedanta Hospital,Mumbai:
Maharaj's consciousness level is the same- he is recognizing devotees
and trying to communicate. Trial oral feeds are still going on. He is
able to chew and swallow a few teaspoons of semi solid food. He was
again made to sit on a chair with support. The process of weaning from
the ventilator is going on and will take a few days for him to be
completely off it. Please continue your intense and enthusiastic
prayers.
Most humble request to all the devotees:
Dear devotees,
Please accept the obeisances of the devotees at Mumbai who are directly
looking after the medical treatment of HH Jayapataka Swami Maharaja. Srila
Prabhupada ki jaya!
Today Dr. P. P. Ashok, the neurologist at Hinduja Hospital expressed
surprise that he was receiving phone calls from devotees all over the world
inquiring and offering advice regarding the treatment being given to
Maharaj.
Frankly, he expressed his disappointment at having to deal with this
scenerio.
We strongly feel that this is an unwanted and unnecessary disturbance to Dr.
Ashok, who needs full peace and freedom from this — so he can concentrate
on his professional duties — which is of major importance to the ongoing
medical efforts to help Maharaj recover.
Also, many devotees are telephoning the reception at the Hinduja hospital
and the ICCU section here as well.
For the information of all the devotees — both disicples and all well
wishers of Maharaj, the decisions regarding HH Jayapataka Swami Maharaja’s
ongoing treatment are being decided by a team of doctors, who are fully
supported by HH Gopala Krsna Goswami Maharaja, HH Bhakti Purushottama Swami
Maharaja and HG Braja Hari Prabhu. The Director of Bhaktivedanta Hospital,
HG Madhavananda Prabhu, is heading the team.
Again, we most humbly request you NOT to telephone any of the doctors at
Hinduja hospital, nor telephone the hospital.
Please continue to follow the medical bulletins posted to the various websites.
Please continue to pray to Sri Sri Radha Madhava, Ashtasakhis, Panchatattva
and Prahlada Nrsimha for the speedy recovery of HH Jayapataka Swami
Maharaja. Here at Hinduja hospital, devotees are constantly chanting and
continuously reading Sri Caitanya Caritamrita in the presence of HH
Jayapataka Swami Maharaja. Please do likewise…
Your humble servants,
The team of devotees attending personally to HH Jayapataka Swami Maharaja
Please continue to pray and chant extra japa. Click here for latest info posted on www.mayapur.com , www.dandavats.com, http://www.jpsoffice.com/, or http://jpshealth.jpscare.com/index.html .
your servant,
Sikhi Mahiti das
