Update

Friends and wellwishers,

Sorry for the delay in posting an update on his condition, following the surgery to his head.

He is recovering well. He is still hospitalized and could be for the next 4 to 5 weeks or so, per doctors estimates. Due to the nature of the surgery and the area of the body, he is still a bit unsteady in his walking. He seems to have lost some strength in usage of his legs. The pain in the area of the surgery seems to have reached manageable limits, even without pain killers. He seems to have developed a pronounced twitch or jerk in one of his hands. According to the doctors this is also attributable to that location of the brain. The doctors believe, with continued physio therapy to his limbs he will start to lose the weakness and pain and is expected to make full recovery.

He is also being treated for the infection, by a managed dose of antibiotics to quell or control the infection in his head. The doctors are working towards finding the right formula of medicine and dosage to keep him infection free.

His spirits have also started to soar a bit. He is still unable to have any conversations over the phone. So please do not try to reach him. Any updates on his condition can be gotten from his father or wife.

Keep him in your prayers.

HelpRajesh team.
