Fidel Castro is terminally ill but has made it his goal to survive until George W. Bush leaves the White House, it emerged yesterday, as the Cuban dictator made his first television appearance in three months.
The 81-year-old gave an hour-long interview to debunk rumours of his death. Appearing alert but tired, he said simply: "Well, here I am," adding: "Nobody knows the day they are going to die."
Castro's son has said his father will not recover from the illness that caused him to disappear from public view this summer to undergo surgery, according to a forthcoming biography.

I believe he can do just that. The Gerbil has illnesses and with his use of drugs and alcohol his days are numbered.
This will keep Fidel Castro going. Just to spite the Gerbil.
