A Naples doctor said former Cuban leader Fidel Castro is near ‘a neurovegetative state’ after suffering a stroke.
Former Cuban leader Fidel Castro suffered a cerebral hemorrhage and his state of health is so precarious that he has trouble feeding, speaking and recognizing people, said a Venezuelan physician who assured El Nuevo Herald that he has access to firsthand sources and information.
“He suffered an embolic stroke and recognizes absolutely no one,” said José Marquina, a respected doctor who in the past has claimed to have direct information about the illness affecting President Hugo Chávez of Venezuela.

Wait, wait, wait. I thought Cuba had the best healthcare system? Even Hugo Chavez has a Cuban doctor.

Great, so if castro croaks under barry’s watch, he’ll claim credit for that too.

When a story like this comes out, I think of the line from The Godfather: “He’s been dying from the same heart attack for the last 20 years.”
My grandmother always said, only the good die young. I expect Fidel will hang on awhile longer.

Does this mean I may yet get a chance to drink the champagne I’ve had in the ‘fridge against the day of his demise.
I hope it’s still good after all these years.

Kind of interesting that both Castro and Chavez go to each other’s countries to get treatment.
