Gurfateh ji,

I am 60 year old woman with long kesh. I hv severe osteoporosis where simply moving also fractures my ribs. Also recently had flu and now having heart issues.
I am not able to wash my hair for month, as I cannot bend or turn my neck back. I have long hair.
There is no one in my family except younger brother who too is heart patient.
When last year I had a fall and i broke my spine then he did sewa.
I don't want to be burden on anyone.
I discussed with my doctor he said to cut hair short so that they are cleaned when I shower.
But I am Puran gursikh. Had Amrit also but since past 10 years underwent surgery and now only do Simran in bed. Financially no strong.
Our school friends support us monthly for our food and medicals.
Please advise. Thanks to all.
