Chavez home from Cuba
2013-02-19
[HOSTED.AP.ORG] His Excellency President-for-Life, Caudillo of the Bolivarians Hugo Chavez returned to Venezuela early Monday after more than two months of treatment in Cuba following cancer surgery, his government said, triggering street celebrations by supporters who welcomed him home while he remained out of sight at Caracas' military hospital.
... in the hospice wing.
Chavez's return was announced in a series of three messages on his Twitter account, the first of them reading: "We've arrived once again in our Venezuelan homeland. Thank you, my God!! Thank you, beloved nation!! We will continue our treatment here."
"... until pain meds are no longer necessary."
They were the first messages to appear on Chavez's Twitter account since Nov. 1.
"Nurse! He moved!"
"Well, twitter something, man!"

"And then snow him!"
"I'm clinging to Christ and trusting in my doctors and nurses," another tweet on Chavez's account said. "Onward toward victory always!! We will live and we will triumph!!"
"We will live until we don't anymore."

#3  The German word for this is "austherapiert".

This is when you send a terminally ill patient home because you can't do anything more for him. And I guess Cuba doesn't want Chávez to die in one of their splendid hospitals.

Didn't think so.

Yup the operation was a success, then he died.
