Brazilian football star Pele has been one of the most amazing and admired football sensations that we have had in the world. There was a time when his rivalry with late Argentine legend, Diego Maradona would be one of the most fascinating things in the world of soccer. Pele is someone who’s had a great stint in International football and even today, some of his records are too tough to even imagine when it comes to breaking them.
Pele has been in hospital for the past few days. Although the good thing was that his condition wasn’t very serious, reports in the media now suggest that he has been moved to Palliative care unit since he was apparently not responding well to chemotherapy treatment.Pele was taken to the hospital to re-evaluate his cancer treatment but was diagnosed with a lung infection. It was in 2021 that Pele had a tumour removed from his colon. Since then, he has been coming to the hospital regularly.
Reports in Hindustan Times suggest that the hospital statement read,
“Edson Arantes do Nascimento (Pele) was admitted to Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein last Tuesday (29) for a reassessment of chemotherapy therapy for the colon tumor, identified in September 2021. He is still undergoing treatment and his health status remains stable. He has also had a good response to care for the respiratory infection, with no worsening of the condition in the last 24 hours.”
