Could you tell me about Balaram's chronic illness and how Sai Baba cured him? Was there any other significant event related to this?

Balaram suffered from a chronic case of asthma for six years. As recounted in Chapter 51, his healing was a miraculous event. After Balaram massaged Sai Baba's feet, Baba offered him a 'chillim' to smoke. Despite not having the habit, Balaram took one puff as prasad. The effect was instantaneous and profound; the asthma that had plagued him for years vanished and never returned. This chapter also notes a later, poignant event where Balaram had a sudden fit of coughing. It was later discovered that this single recurrence happened on the very day that Sai Baba gave up His body, serving as a final, mystical sign of the deep connection between the devotee and his Guru.
