Latest video from family
In the video, the Brazilian legend is shown with his family showing him a smart phone as somebody is talking to him through it. The problem is that Pelé doesn't look like he is fully aware of what's happening. We have no idea if this is an effect of the medicine he is taking or if he is in some kind of anesthetic.
Pelé is still expected to spend Christmas at Sao Paulo's Albert Einstein Medical center but his family members know this is a dire situation for him. Ever since he was diagnosed with cancer, Pelé has been trying to fight for his life but his advanced age is also a major factor here.
Over the last 48 hours, there have been many different football personalities who have sent messages of support to Pelé. Other Brazilian footballers such as Neymar have been sending messages to their idol while there are many social media messages coming from all around the world.
The entire world of football is ocncerned about Pelé health status. However, we all know the situation is not optimal and anything can happen in the span of a few hours. All we can do by now is wait for the moment and feel grateful we lived in an era where Pelé was still alive for many years.
