Former South African president Nelson Mandela was hospitalized for the second straight night and his office said it is routine analysis, although the daily "The Star" and "Mail & Guardian reported that he recovers from a collapsed lung, so that the whole country fears for the life of the leader of 92 years.
Mandela is subject to regular review in a hospital, but the last visit began on Wednesday was unusually long. The journalists gathered outside the hospital saw the Mandela family and friends came to see him. A source close to the apartheid hero said he was "very sick" but that his life is not endangered.
" "There has been restored yet, but expect to leave the hospital tomorrow." President Jacob Zuma, who is attending the Davos World Economic Forum, keeps abreast of the situation by the Minister of Defence, whose department is responsible for the care of current and past presidents. The president warned reporters not to put pressure on Mandela's doctors and give "national hero" dignity and respect.
Mandela also said that it "is comfortable and well cared for by a good team of medical specialists." Children who attend school adjoining the Milpark Hospital made cards and posters wishing luck to Mandela and exhibited in the courtyard of the center, while the school director, Nicky Humphries, said students and teachers prayed for the former president before classes begin.
"It is very important to support the former president because he got a tremendous difference for our generation," said Ntho Molena, a 16 years. "He fought for our freedom and we are grateful." The African National Congress (ANC) called on all South Africans to remain calm and not to panic, "because there is no reason for it." Mandela's office issued a brief statement Wednesday saying that it is a visit for routine analysis.
Mandela was imprisoned for 27 years for his struggle against apartheid and in 1994 became the first black South African president. He resigned at the end of his one term in 1999 and since 2004 is largely retired from public life. Mandela is very sick, but her life is in danger. Has not been restored yet, but expect to leave tomorrow (today) of hospitalquien asked not be named.
What more can you expect from him? Of course, we would like to continue forever with us, but you know ... Anything can happen with former Anglican Archbishop of Cape Town.
