Venezuela's President, Hugo Chavez, Fighting For His Life

Posted: Updated:

(KCEN) -- Hugo Chavez is fighting for his life. That's according to Venezuela's Vice President and the man personally chosen by Chavez to succeed him.

Nicolas Maduro spoke about Chavez at a housing dedication Thursday.

Maduro said the ailing leader sacrificed his health for the benefit of the country's poor.

Chavez recently made a surprise return to Venezuela more than two months after cancer surgery in Cuba.

He hasn't been seen in public in months and Chavez's condition is jeopardizing his 14-year socialist rule.

Many expect Chavez to be formally sworn in for his new six-year term at a military hospital in Caracas, where he's staying.
