Football legend Pele ‘is moved to end-of-life care’ in hospital, as doctors stop chemotherapy with his body not responding to it in fight against bowel cancer
Reports from Daily Mail say Pele, 82, has been moved into a ‘palliative care’ ward at the Albert Einstein Hospital in Sao Paulo
He is reportedly no longer responding to chemotherapy treatment in his fight against bowel cancer
Three-time World Cup winner was admitted last Tuesday suffering from ‘general swelling’ and ‘heart failure’
A further update on Thursday said he was in a ‘stable condition’ while his daughter Kely played down the severity of his condition, but Folha de Sao Paulo reported on Saturday Pele is receiving ‘end-of-life care’
Players past and present sent emotional messages wishing Pele well.
