Champaklal Speaks

12 May 1934

Mother, I get pain in my knee, ankle and back regularly. Sometimes I am unable to stand, even for five minutes. In the winter it becomes acute. I do not understand how and why this pain comes to me so persistently.

It is rheumatism, probably hereditary—it will go with the transformation of the body.

Mother, I suffer from constipation. So I am taking lime juice regularly. But nowadays I get only one instead of the usual two limes daily. That too is a very small one. Can I have one more?

Mother can give you one from hers.
