NELSON MANDELA DISCHARGED FROM HOSPITAL



Nelson Mandela 
It has been 3 weeks since former South African President and Icon, Nelson Mandela was admitted to the hospital.  He was discharged on Boxing Day, December 26 from a hospital in Pretoria, the South African capital. Mr. Mandela, fondly called “Madiba”- his clan name, was admitted to the hospital Saturday, December 8, he was diagnosed with a lung infection and underwent gallstone surgery.

The procedure was successful according to his doctors and although he has not yet fully recovered, he has made steady progress. A medical team will remain with the 94-year old Nobel Laureate to provide “home based high care” at his residence in the Johannesburg neighbourhood of Houghton.

I wish him a full and speedy recovery, as do billions around the world.
