By: Ibraheem Olasunkanmi Qoseem
The highly revered former Brazil player popularly known as Pele has been reportedly admitted in Sao Paulo over his overall body swelling.
It was reported by Daily Mail, that the Brazil star was hospitalized on Tuesday following an unscheduled visit together with his wife, Marcia Aokoi at Albert Einstein hospital where he was undergoing treatment for metastatic cancer.
His health deteriorated as he was diagnosed with anasarca (general swelling), and edemigemic syndrome (general edema) and a ‘decompensated heart failure.’
The report revealed that the Legend’s chemotherapy treatment has stopped being effective and he was subsequently diagnosed of mental confusion.
The 82-year-old football legend is set to undergo a series of tests Wednesday for a further assessment of his health conditions.
The possible diagnosis for the Brazil Star is hepatic encephalopathy while he is also finding it hard to eat.
While his medical team and Pele’s family are extremely worried about his condition, his daughter, Kely Nascimento, has insisted that there is no need for alarm as there is no surprise in her father’s hospitalisation.
