Dear Maharajas and Prabhus,
Please accept our humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!
The many letters, prayers, and phone calls have been a great source of comfort for Balabhadra. Thank you again and again. Our hearts are touched with your kindness.
Balabhadra is now at home. It was concluded that heart surgery was not necessary at this time. He has been given many medicines to take for his heart and high blood pressure. In one month he is to meet with the cardiologist again to see how he is doing. He is not feeling so good from the medicines but we are told that his body will adjust within a few days. His heart was not at all damaged by the heart attack.
The test results on his liver came back normal.
The whole situation with his leg has not been resolved as the neurologist did not come into the hospital on the weekend. Our general doctor there gave us the name of the expert neurologist in the area and wants us to call him and get an appointment as soon as possible. The fact that he has been immobile and in pain for so long is not good for his present and future health.
Right now he is sleeping soundly which he wasn’t able to do in the hospital. The pain in his leg comes and goes in severity. He is scheduled for the acupuncturist in a few days and hopefully he will be feeling well enough to have the treatment as it gave him much relief.
Balabhadra is receiivng phone calls at our home phone: 304-843-1658. I am hoping he wil feel well enough to access on his laptop his own email at balabhadra.iscowp@earthlink.net . You can still also write to iscowp@earthlink.net and I will make sure he will receive it.
If you could continue to pray for his improved general health and that his leg situation is resolved soon so that he may be able again to walk amongst the cows.
Your servant, Chayadevi

Dear Mother Chayadevi
We were all glad to hear that your husband’s heart and liver problems are not life-threatening. I’ve suffered through many similar health issues over the past ten years including pain in my knees, which became so distracting that I had to bandage both of my legs before going on sankirtana.
I recently found a product that has helped me walk and even dance in kirtana without pain. It is called Vegetable Glucosamine, produced and distributed by a Company called Effective Natural Products. Their phone number is 1-866-896-0079 and their web address is www.effectivenatural.com. It is 100% shellfish-free and, if taken regularly, its effect can be felt within three days. It is available in most health food stores.
Balabhadra Prabhu is a great soul who has given every ounce of his energy to the service
of his spiritual master for four decades. As you mentioned, no damage was done to his
heart, and this is not surprising since Krishna is situated there as his friend and protector.
Please convey my humble obeisances to your good husband who is an ocean of vaisnava qualities.
