Civi, why would you have any doubts as to whether or not Chavez actually has cancer? He himself has admitted to getting chemo for cancer. Are you saying that you doubt whether or not he still has cancer? I haven't seen any comments from anyone that there is doubt as to whether or not he has had cancer. Obviously, the doubt out there is around what the status of his health is now.

You aleays hear people saying that when a friend is in dying, and in pain, that 'for his/her sake, let it be quick'.

Well, in this case, for everyone else's sake, let it be quick.
