It would have been a triumphal return with cameras if he was presentable. He must look like death warmed over, when he’s actually trying to ambulate [i.e.: for anything other than a carefully staged still shot].

The clock ticks away, and even tyrants have to quit. This is God’s way of making sure the misery doesn’t last forever.

If he does have Stage IV colon cancer, he'll have a quick and slippery slide into eternity.

Not to worry, folks. He was treated by the best Cuban doctors money can buy. They’ve proven that medical advances since the 1950s are all capitalist lies...

Without hesitation I affirm that the results are impressive, and I do not hesitate to affirm that the patient has undertaken a decisive battle that will lead him, and with him Venezuela, to a great victory,” Castro wrote in the essay...
Castro also backed up Chavez's account that he did not initially come to Cuba for treatment.
“Some have found strange the coincidence of his visit to Cuba with the need for the medical attention that was carried out,” Castro wrote. “The Venezuelan president ... did not have any intention of receiving medical services in our country....”
