Doctors were assessing the best course of treatment, he said, but had cautioned that chemotherapy and surgery posed challenges due to an autoimmune disease he suffers from. He drew widespread international attention during his presidency for allowing abortions in early pregnancy - a regional first in predominantly Catholic South America - and backing a proposal to legalize marijuana sales.
"I want to convey to all the young people that life is beautiful, but it wears out and you fall," he said."The point is to start over every time you fall, and if there is anger, transform it into hope."
