Chavez undergoing "tough" chemotherapy: Venezuela VP

(Reuters) - Venezuela's ailing President Hugo Chavez has been undergoing "tougher" new treatment for cancer including chemotherapy at the military hospital where he has been for the last two weeks, his vice-president said.

Speaking late on Friday after a Catholic Mass to pray for Chavez's health, Maduro described how the socialist president had personally given the order to leave Cuba in mid-February, two months after his latest cancer surgery there.

I will pray for this man although I am not a religious man

Chemo treatment is hard, my mom is a cancer survivor

lots of opinions I have read says chemo makes it worse..weakens the body and actually builds up the cancer

I hope Chavez can come through this. He is one of the few leaders in the world standing up for the poor and working people.

Personally I would never have chemotherapy. Chemotherapy is poison and the survival rates are abysmal.
