Kim Jong-Il in failing health? | ||
2006-09-15 | ||
EAST-ASIA-INTEL.COM Thursday, September 14, 2006. North Korean reclusive leader Kim Jong-Il's health has further deteriorated and he can no longer walk without difficulty due to worsening diabetes, a South Korean lawmaker said. Kim, 64, has long suffered from diabetes, kidney and liver problems and now has difficulty walking, said Chung Hyung-Keun, a longtime intelligence official now affiliated with the opposition Grand National Party. "Kim has problems walking more than 30 meters at once and has to sit and rest [frequently]. Kim has been accompanied by an assistant with a chair," said Chung.

#16 We should send him a nice box of cookies and chocolates. I was thinking more along the lines of insulin cut with battery acid and a little strychnine. |

#12 So, let's bronze him like Suri's, preferrably by dipping him directly into the molten metal. Slowly, veeeeeeeeery slowly. |

#7 Probably not, tw: if the motor nerves are shot, so are the nerves that communicate pain. Damn. |

#6 Diabetic neuropathy is due to the effects of hyperglycemia on the peripheral nerves. Leaves you unable to walk and stand since the sensory nerves aren't talking to the brain. Pretty darned crippling for an advanced diabetic. But is it terribly, terribly painful? |

#5 So did Jong-Nam come up with the rabbit thing in his father's absence? "See, pa? My governance makes about as much as yours!" |

#3 I'd rather have him complaining and shot like Ceausescu, though. Tyrants need to die exemplary death. |
