Hugo Chavez in hospital 'for kidney failure'
Hugo Chavez, who has been fighting cancer, was rushed to a military hospital for emergency care following kidney failure, according to reports.
1:33PM BST 29 Sep 2011
The leftist, staunchly anti-US stalwart Chavez went into the Military Hospital in Caracas on Tuesday morning, the report on the newspaper's website said, citing anonymous sources with knowledge of the case.
"He was in fairly serious overall condition," a source told the Miami-based Spanish-language daily. "When he arrived, he was in quite serious shape and that is why he was brought in for emergency care."
Venezuela's Information Minister Andres Izarra appeared to deny the report in a posting on the micro-blogging website Twitter.
"Those who should be admitted are the journalists of the Nuevo Herald, except into a madhouse (instead of a hospital)," Izarra tweeted, without providing further details.
On Sunday, Chavez sought to assure Venezuelans he was healthy, telling them that cancer-fighting chemotherapy treatment has not left him with any debilitating side effects.

“On Sunday, Chavez sought to assure Venezuelans he was healthy, telling them that cancer-fighting chemotherapy treatment has not left him with any debilitating side effects.”
famous last words......I hope
he said he was cured.
I guess he’ll be on dialysis
Hollywood will undoubtedly be holding a vigil for their beloved hero.
Awwwwww.
“he said he was cured.
I guess he’ll be on dialysis”
If he needs a kidney or two, a “donor” WILL be found.
I pray that he will come to repentance and faith in Jesus Christ before he dies.
How terribly distressing.
Get ready for the ultimate in “Wellstone Moments.”
Who’s got the Curly Bill Brocious pic?
Thank you!
That is my exact thought and I was ready to post the same message.
God loves him and is not willing that he should perish.
AMEN.
Is there an address we can send flowers, cards ... condolences to the family ... congratulations to the nation ?
Prayers up for Mr. Chavez and his family. Nobody deserves to have cancer. Here’s hoping for a speedy recovery, so we can get back to wishing him damned to hell.
Poor Maxine Waters! She and Sean Penncil Dick are going to lose their hero and best friend. WAHHHHHHHHH!!!!
Chavez: What’s that hole they are digging in the courtyard?
Doctor: it’s a communist plot...
