Pinochet family sees “miracle” in health improvement
2006-12-05
SANTIAGO - Augusto Pinochet’s family saw his health improvement Monday as “almost a miracle” after the ex-dictator, who has never faced trial for his regime’s abuses, underwent surgery for a major heart attack.

The 91-year-old former strongman’s family feels “calmer” after doctors announced Monday the risk of death had diminished following Sunday’s surgery, said his eldest daughter, Lucia Pinochet Hiriart. “It’s almost a miracle,” she said.

Pinochet awoke Monday and recognized and spoke with those who visited him, doctor Juan Ignacio Vergara told reporters.
Did he recognize the process servers?
