Chávez suplica a Dios que le de vida


Published: Yesterday


CARACAS (AP) - El convaleciente presidente Hugo Chávez, que lucha contra el cáncer desde mediados del año pasado, clamó el jueves a Dios, al final de una misa, que le de vida para terminar su obra de gobierno.
"Dame vida aunque sea vida flameante, vida dolorosa, no me importa, dame tu corona Cristo, dámela, que yo sangro. Dame tu cruz, 100 cruces, que yo la llevo, pero dame vida porque todavía me quedan cosas por hacer por este pueblo", dijo un conmovido Chávez al culminar una misa de acción de gracias por su salud que se hizo en su estado natal de Barinas.
El mandatario, de 57 años, arribó cerca de la medianoche del miércoles a la ciudad suroccidental de Barinas, estado Barinas, tras culminar en la capital cubana un segundo ciclo de radioterapia.
"No ha sido fácil lo que me ha tocado", dijo Chávez en un discurso que ofreció al final de la homilía que transmitió la televisora estatal.
El acongojado gobernante, que vestía un atuendo deportivo y exhibía en el cuello un rosario, admitió que estuvo a punto de romper en llanto, en medio del acto litúrgico, luego de recibir unas caricias de su padre y su madre, quienes lo acompañaron en la misa junto a otros familiares y allegados.
"No pude evitar unas lagrimas cuando sentí la mano amorosa de mi madre y al mismo tiempo la mano de mi padre. ¡Dios, hace cuantos años no sentía yo estas dos manos al mismo tiempo!", agregó.
El gobernante viajó el 31 de marzo a Cuba para someterse a una segunda fase de radioterapia como parte del tratamiento que está siguiendo luego de que en febrero le detectaron un segundo tumor canceroso en la región pélvica.
Entre el 24 y 28 de marzo a Chávez le aplicaron en La Habana un primer ciclo de cinco sesiones de radioterapia.
Chávez fue intervenido el pasado 26 de febrero en La Habana para extirparle una lesión cancerosa de 2 centímetros que apareció en el mismo lugar donde hace casi 10 meses le operaron un tumor del tamaño de una pelota de béisbol.
En junio del año pasado Chávez se sometió a dos intervenciones en Cuba para atenderse un absceso pélvico y un tumor canceroso.
Entre julio y septiembre al mandatario le aplicaron cuatro fases de quimioterapia en La Habana y Caracas. Al finalizar el tratamiento, que le hizo perder el cabello y aumentar de peso, Chávez anunció en octubre que estaba curado y que ya no tenía células cancerosas en el cuerpo.
Aunque ha declarado profusamente sobre su estado de salud, Chávez nunca ha precisado el tipo de cáncer que padece, donde fue localizado ni cuales son los pronósticos médicos.

Sobbing Chavez Pleads for Life at Catholic Mass in Home State

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavezwiped tears from his face as he pleaded for life in his fight against an undisclosed cancer at a Catholic mass in his home state of Barinas.
Chavez, speaking yesterday at the mass held for his health and broadcast on state television, said cancer is a “real threat” that takes many lives and that he has faith that he will win the fight against the disease.

Chavez, who returned April 4 from Cuba where he underwent a second round of radiation therapy, said he shed tears when he felt the hands of his parents, Hugo and Elena, touch him during the mass. His siblings also attended the service.
“If this was necessary, may it be welcome,” Chavez said, who wore a white T-shirt under a blue and white track suit.“But I ask God to give me life, however painful. I can carry 100 crosses, your crown of thorns, but don’t take me yet. I still have things to do.”
Chavez, who has undergone three operations as part of his treatment since June, will seek re-election in October in a bid to extend his 13-year rule until 2019. The government hasn’t disclosed any succession plans in case Chavez, 57, isn’t healthy enough to participate in the elections.
He may travel to Brazil for medical treatment after having a reaction to the radiation therapy, Merval Pereira, a columnist for O Globo newspaper reported yesterday, without saying where he got the information.

No Trip Planned

A spokeswoman at Venezuela’s Information Ministry, who isn’t authorized to comment, said Chavez didn’t have a trip to Brazil on his agenda.
Chavez is also having intestinal problems, which might be a sign the cancer is spreading, Pereira added.
Brazilian and Venezuelan doctors have clashed with Cubans on the medical team over whether radiation therapy is the appropriate treatment for Chavez, Nelson Bocaranda, a journalist who frequently reports developments on the president’s health in absence of details from the government, wrote yesterday on his blog.
Chavez received a phone call from former Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva on April 3 in which the Venezuelan leader said he would like to visit Brazil soon to meet with Lula and President Dilma Rousseff, Venezuela’s Foreign Ministry said in a statement sent by e-mail.
Chavez said on April 4 his body had no adverse reactions from the radiation treatment and that all tests showed his recovery was going well after arriving in Venezuela.
