*Update – 19 June – 9 am US EDT*
Dear Devotees:
We are currently formally meeting twice daily on zoom as the physician critical care group to support HH Bhakti Charu Swami.
Our team was started at the directive of HH Jayapataka Swami, Guru Gauranga Prabhu and Mahavaraha Prabhu.
We are currently awaiting bacterial cultures for Maharaj as we speak, in order to add on another medication to decrease inflammation and to see if he can do better.
Still the doctors on the ground that are treating Maharaj are very conservative in their outlook for prognosis for Maharaj, and his ICU stay may be for at least 10 days.
Today we will be starting a therapy called convalescent plasma.
We are in hopes that HH Bhakti Charu Swami does not have another source of infection and actively trying to rule this out.
Overnight there was a trial to try to wean Maharaj off of the ventilator, however, Maharaj still needs the ventilator.
We are in massive need of your prayers and blessings to serve Maharaj at the highest level.
Please continue your prayers.
Dandavat Pranaams to you all.
Dr. Vivek Baluja
