The Swiss Gianni Infantino, President of the International Federation of Football, was subjected to harsh criticism during his participation in the funeral of the Brazilian legend Pele, who passed away at the age of 82, following a long struggle with cancer, as fans stood in a queue of more than a kilometer long to bid farewell to him in a historical scene.
Infantino caused controversy when he was seen smiling next to Pele’s coffin as he took a “selfie” photo with Lima, Pele’s former teammate in Santos, but he quickly responded via Instagram, where he wrote, “I feel horrified following knowing the criticism I was exposed to because of these pictures.” .
He added, “I had the honor of fulfilling the request of some colleagues and members of Pele’s family to take a picture with me, and I obviously agreed immediately, and for the selfie specifically, Pele’s colleagues asked to take a group picture for us, but they did not know how to do it, so I took one of them’s phone and took the picture.” “.

Doctors informed him that he would die within a year.. A British cancer sufferer is fully recovering from the disease after using a new revolutionary treatment

Al-Marsad newspaper: Doctors in Britain expect that a man diagnosed with an aggressive form of bile duct cancer will live one year.
And the British newspaper “The Guardian” reported, on Friday, that Robert Glenn, 51, had completely recovered from cancer thanks to a new treatment for this malignant disease known as immunotherapy.
The tumor was classified as stage four, with very bleak predictions for the near future.
New program
He was transferred to a new cancer program, where he participated in clinical trials for a treatment known as immunotherapy, which was approved for use in the treatment of other cancers such as lung, kidney, and others.
The idea of immunotherapy is to help the immune system recognize and attack cancer cells.
Pre-treatment screening showed that the patient’s tumor had a high mutation burden, indicating that he had a good response to treatment.
And the treatment of the patient, Glenn, depended on feeding his body with a liquid that helps the immune system to fight cancer, and the treatment also depended on chemical doses.
The treatment began to yield results, as the cancerous tumor in the liver shrank from 12 cm to 2.3 cm, while the cancerous tumor in the adrenal gland shrank from 7 cm to 4.1 cm.
fully recovered
The surprise was that the surgeons found only dead tissue, which means that the treatment eliminated the cancer cells.
He said that the doctors checked the tumors twice, but they did not believe what they saw, and one of the nurses said, “It is a miracle.”
Since the surgery he underwent last April, Glenn no longer needed additional treatments, and the following examinations showed that he had completely recovered from cancer.
