Nelson Mandela

Its been announced on the news, his condition has deteriorated and he is now critical.
Sounds like he won't be around for much longer

, he comes across as a very decent sort of fella, such a shame he should have to suffer like this in his latter years, especially when there are so many evil scumbags in the world. The leader of his country being one of them. I hope perhaps he will recover and live the rest of his days in better health, but it doesn't look like it.

Rest assured he is getting the best medical treatment money can buy, it may be a 3rd world country, but private medical is as good as it is here. Even if the ambulance did break down on it's way to the hospital-took 40 minutes to get another there. No one expected him to live this long, especially after his years in jail. I shudder to think what is going to happen when he does die, his daughters are already arguing over his money. Zuma is just biding his time.....

Sad news indeed, hope he pulls through, he does seem a really decent man, we will cross our fingers for him.
