The Questionnaire

[Listen to Asha read this story]

Swamiji does not allow the limitations of his body to define him. When he needed a specialist to do a complicated dental surgery, his usual dentist, Sheri Bernadett, went along to assist.

“First we have to take your medical history,” Sheri said. “Do you have heart problems?”

“Yes.”

“High blood pressure?”

“Yes.”

“Prosthetic surgery?”

“Yes.” Both hips had been replaced.

“Other surgery?”

“Yes.” Bypass surgery and an artificial valve in his heart.

“Hearing loss?”

“Yes.”

“Diabetes?”

“Yes.”

“Arthritis?”

“Yes.”

On and on it went to the last question. “How would you rate your overall health?”

“Excellent!” Swamiji said. “Just excellent!”
