If the great man is to pass on, how more befitting could it be than during the World Cup, 64 years after his debut?
But football is his life and he might yet bounce back.
We pray he does.
Let Brazil give him the ultimate honor by winning the World Cup this year. :clap:

PELE MOVED TO HOSPICE

Post by jette1 »

Hope this isn't the beginning of an end to a world greatest

https://www.theguardian.com/football/20 ... eports-say

The Brazilian football great Pelé is receiving palliative care after he stopped responding to chemotherapy treatment for colon cancer, the Brazilian newspaper Folha de S Paulo has reported.

Pelé, 82, was admitted to hospital on Tuesday to re-evaluate his cancer treatment, according to medical reports.

According to Folha de S Paulo, the chemotherapy has now been suspended and Pelé is receiving end-of-life care, being treated only for symptoms such as pain and shortness of breath.

The Albert Einstein hospital in São Paulo declined to confirm reports that the football legend known as the The King is under palliative care and said it would only communicate through official bulletins. The latest medical report, released on Friday, said Pelé was being treated with antibiotics for a respiratory infection. His condition was “stable, with a general improvement in his health status”, the report said.

Out of curiosity, when saying “I’ll pray for…”, in this instance, Pele, what is it that one prays for?

Absolutely. A legend in every sense of the word, a name synonymous with the sport loved by all. Pele is the founding father of football, whilst the sport predates his birth, he, without doubt, gave birth to football.

RIP King Pele.

From my earlier memories, the King was the King.

My father passed away last year. He never stopped talking about Pele when football came up. He introduced me to Pele and Brazil when I started learning football in the 1970s.

It was magical then. It remains magical now and always will be.

Thanks for the memories King Pele.
