How did Sai Baba provide a sign to his devotee Balaram on the day He passed away?

Chapter 51 narrates a poignant story about a sign Baba gave to His devotee Balaram. Though Baba had previously cured Balaram's severe asthma, Balaram experienced a sudden and inexplicable fit of coughing on one particular day, which amazed everyone. It was only later that the reason became clear: the day Balaram had this coughing fit was the very same day that Sai Baba gave up His physical body. This event was understood to be a specific sign from Baba to His devotee. The text confirms that after this day, Balaram never had a cough again for the rest of his life.
