Pelé completes a month in the hospital

The former Brazilian soccer player Edson Arantes do Nascimento ‘Pelé’ completed a month in the hospital this Thursdaywith no expected discharge and in the midst of a worsening state of health due to the advance of colon cancer diagnosed in 2021.

The 82-year-old triple world champion continues in a shared room at the Albert Einstein Hospital in Sao Paulo, where he is accompanied by his wife, Márcia Aoki, and her children, some of whom have traveled from abroad to support their father.

The last bulletin is from December 21when the doctors indicated that the “oncological disease” presented a “progression” and that the former Santos and Cosmos striker required “greater care” related to “dysfunctions” in the kidneys and the heart.

Some versions of the Brazilian press indicate that the cancer has spread to the liver and lung, although this information has not been publicly confirmed by the relatives or the medical team.

Pelé, considered by many to be the best soccer player of all time, was admitted to the hospital on November 29. to, in principle, reassess the chemotherapy treatment against the colon tumor that was operated on in September 2021.

Later, it was reported that he was also being treated for a “respiratory infection”, a consequence, according to his daughters, of the covid-19 that he contracted about three weeks before he entered the hospital.

Over the days, international expectation has grown around the evolution of the legendary former Canarinha striker.

His family does not separate from him. Two of her daughters, Kely Nascimento and Flavia Arantes, are sharing their feelings about “these difficult moments to explain” on social networks, while her father remains hospitalized and, according to some press reports, sedated.

Nascimento published the day before that the family alternates moments of “much sadness and despair” with others in which they relive “funny memories.”

“And what we learn the most from all this is that we have to get closer to each other and stay close. That’s the only way it’s all worth it. With everyone together,” Pele’s daughter said on her Instagram profile.

He accompanied his relief with a photo in which he appears with his sister Flavia and two of the grandchildren of ‘O Rei’, sons of Sandra Regina, the daughter that Pelé only recognized by court decision and who died of cancer in 2006.

Meanwhile, tributes and prayers from world soccer figures for his speedy recovery continue. One of the most emotional has departed from Santos, the club where he rose to world stardom and which has decided to include a crown in honor of its “king” on its shield..
