Timeline of His Holiness Jayapataka Swami's Life - 2001-2010

2008 December 10 - Secretary Diary. 20081210 Hinduja Hospital. Mumbai, India

10th Dec 2008 Night shift 6pm - 6am
-------------------------------------

Today HH Janananda Goswami visited GM. He was about to leave the hospital when i went inside the ICU. GM was sitting on a chair next to his bed. We asked GM,"Do you prefer taking dinner while sitting on the chair or on the bed?" He said,"On the bed." Bhadra Balaram Prabhu went to call the hospital boys who always help us to carry GM.

Today,Vasudeva Prabhu,GM's personal cook from Mayapur came with us to the hospital to get some feed back from GM about his cooking. Guru maharaj told him "I am gaining strength because you are cooking nutritious food for me"!!!!!  Guru maharaj kind of lifted his arms to show him how stronger he was getting!!  Can you imagine the satisfaction Vasudevatmaja prabhu must have experienced by hearing such nectarean words?

While waiting for the boys to come i read couple of letters for GM while Vasudeva Prabhu was cutting GM's toe nails. 25 minutes later we managed to put GM on his bed with the help of these boys.

Soon after putting GM on the bed we started to feed dinner.While having his dinner GM asked,"You think Srila Prabhupada chanting at the back is too loud? Disturbs other patients?" I told GM,"So far we haven't got any complaint about it, so nothing to worry." Though GM's health is in poor condition,i noticed his mood of caring for other's welfare remains the same. Sometime after he gained his consciousness he asked us,"Where are you all staying? Where are you take prasadam in the hospital?

GM took rest at 10.30pm. Before going to sleep he told me and Dr.Acyutananda to shift his sleeping position from left to right at 1am. At 1am we went in again to change his sleeping position.
