“There is a pleasent improvement in dad’s health. He is doing a lot of exercises to strengthen his muscles because he has been on the bed for so many days. Breathing is fine too. With all your prayers and blessings he should be out of it pretty soon.”
Before concluding his video, he thanked for all the prayers and concern saying he is indebted to SPB’s fans for their prayers and asked everyone to be careful in ‘Unlock 4.0’.
