| Description | Cuba's Communist daily newspaper published photos of President Fidel Castro in his bed during a visit with his brother Raul and Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez in town for Fidel Castro's 80th birthday Sunday.
The six photos, posted Monday in Granma newspaper's online edition, showed a tired-looking but alert Castro sitting up in bed, wearing a red sweatshirt.
In a statement published in the newspaper, Castro warned his country of an extended recovery.
"To affirm that the recovery period will take a short time and that there is no risk would be absolutely incorrect," Castro said. "I ask you all to be optimistic, and at the same time to be ready to face any adverse news." |
