Giriraj Swami Health Update
By Giriraj Swami Care Team   |  Oct 01, 2024

Giriraj Swami has been diagnosed with Frontotemporal Dementia, a progressive neurological condition that affects his cognitive functions, including decision-making, emotional regulation, and social behavior. This diagnosis significantly impairs his ability to control his actions and feelings, leading to behaviors that are inconsistent with his character and values.

Although the diagnosis was only recently confirmed, Giriraj Swami has been affected by the condition for some time, and there have been noticeable changes in his behavior as a result. One of the challenges of this debilitating condition is that those afflicted are often unaware of their impaired functioning and altered behavior.

A team of medical specialists and dedicated caregivers, serving under the guidance of senior Vaishnavas, is providing Giriraj Swami with the support and care he needs.

We deeply appreciate your understanding and ask for privacy and respect during this challenging period for Giriraj Swami. Please continue to keep Giriraj Swami in your prayers, and approach this situation with sensitivity and compassion.
