Hugo Chavez en Route to Brazilian Hospital with Complications? (http://latino.foxnews.com/latino/news/2012/04/05/hugo-chavez-could-be-in-brazil-with-cancer-complications/)

Brazilian media is reporting that ailing Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez will make an emergency trip to Brazil after allegedly suffering intestinal burns during his radiation treatment in Cuba.

Chávez, who in June of last year revealed that Cuban doctors had removed a cancerous tumor from his abdominal region, has been going back-and-forth from the island nation for treatment. The Associated Press reported earlier on Thursday that the Venezuelan leader had returned to his country on Wednesday night from radiation treatment in Cuba.

"So far, fortunately there hasn't been any adverse reaction to the treatment," Chavez said Wednesday, according to The Associated Press. "All the exams that have been carried out have shown positive results of physical recovery."

However, the Brazilian daily O Globo reported a rumor from Venezuelan journalist Nelson Bocaranda that Chávez could be headed to the hospital Sirio e Libanês in Sao Paulo.

“People close to Chavez fear that it is too late for a new treatment here in Brazil, which could have started long ago with the offer made by President (Ignacío Lula da Silva)  and President Dilma (Rousseff) ,” O Globo reporter Merval Pereira wrote.

In this photo provided by Miraflores presidential press office, priest Mario Moronta, right, makes a cross sign on Venezuela's President Hugo Chávez's forehead during a mass for Chávez's recovery in Caracas, Venezuela.

Oh wow, he went to Mass also today, for some reason I thought he totally embraced Socialism and became an Atheist, but I guess he didn't:

Hugo Chavez goes to Mass with family after return from 2nd round of radiation therapy in Cuba

Chavez sat between his parents, holding hands with his mother and father while a priest led a prayer for the president’s health. At one point, he shed tears that ran down his cheeks. Other relatives, including his older brother, Adan, joined him at the Mass in his home state of Barinas.

Immediately following the Mass, Chavez hung a red rosary over his neck and became visibly emotional as he spoke to the small crowd attending the event.

“I couldn’t avoid several tears,” said Chavez, who claims he has been recovering well since surgery in February that removed a second tumor from his pelvic region.

Hugo must have found God when he learned that he had cancer. I guess burning in hell scares him.

What is so funny is that it was reported that a Cuban doctor operated on Hugo for the wrong thing. Then a Spanish doctor tried to correct the screw up of the first doctor. Looks like the commie is not long for this world. :loser:

If I need to have major surgery, I will go to a commie or EU doctor. Not. Can we just send Obama and all the liiberals to those facilities. We can call it Commiecare.

I thought he was always a strong Catholic. Liberation theology has been infecting the church, especially in Latin America, for decades.

John Hopkins has an excellent facility in Panama. Many of the doctors got their education and training in the US.
