Sharon's Prognosis Poor

Sharon's Prognosis Poor

This is the first medical analysis I have seen that puts Ariel Sharon's illness in perspective. The prospects are not good.

Sharon's chance of surviving the stroke is probably less than 20%, estimated Dr. Philip Stieg, chairman of the department of neurological surgery at Cornell University's Weill Medical College in New York City.

"It's extremely unlikely that he is going to come out of this being a walking, talking individual," Stieg said. "We're talking about a 77-year-old guy who's morbidly obese. The prognosis for him is extremely grim."
