Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, 79, has been discharged from Hospital Sírio-Libanês in São Paulo after undergoing emergency surgery for an intracranial hemorrhage caused by a fall in the bathroom. Lula was hospitalized on December 9th and underwent two surgical procedures to drain a hematoma from his skull. On December 13th, he left the intensive care unit and was moved to semi-intensive care, where he was reported to be lucid, oriented, feeding normally, and walking. He posted a video on social media showing himself walking in the hospital corridors, assuring supporters that he was "firm and strong." Doctors stated that his recovery was better than expected and that his cognition and memory are perfect, allowing him to resume activities. Lula is expected to remain in São Paulo until December 19th to undergo further examinations and has been advised to avoid intense physical activities and long flights for at least a month. He expressed gratitude for the support he received and said, "God was generous in taking care of me when I fell in the bathroom." Lula also shared that he had been feeling sleepy and had red eyes before seeking medical attention. He is eager to return to work.
