What was Sai Baba's response when the parents of the sick child pleaded for his help?

When the parents of the suffering child approached Sai Baba, they were overcome with emotion, pleading with choked voices and pitiful faces. As Chapter 34 recounts, Sai, the 'embodiment of compassion,' responded with immediate reassurance. He told them to become worry-free and not to despair. He then gave them his sacred Udi with the instruction to apply it to the boy's wound. More than just providing a remedy, Baba offered profound spiritual solace, stating that those who seek shelter in his Masjid shall never face downfall. His response was one of complete grace, comfort, and a promise of protection.
