The Gift of Life to the President's Wife |

V.V. Giri's wife was lying unconscious in Willington Nursing Home. Her liver
was not functioning properly, and in spite of all the best efforts and
medical facilities, her condition was deteriorating. One night her
blood pressure became very low, breathing became difficult, and her
pulse was feeble. Informing Giri about her condition, I told him that
she was dying. Giri asked me to make every effort to keep her alive
until 2 a.m. She was injected with stimulating drugs mixed in glucose,
put on oxygen, and a pacemaker kept her heart functioning. All efforts
failed at 1:45. Giri kept his eyes glued to the clock on the wall. At 2
a.m. Shrimati Giri took a deep breath and then began breathing
normally. By morning she had regained consciousness, and later her
condition improved. I wanted to know the secret of why 2 a.m. was so
important. Giri simply said that a saint had assured him of it. He
later revealed that the saint was none other than Baba.
