Details of the will of the world's poorest president after he was diagnosed with cancer

Former Uruguayan President Jose Mujica, 90, who has esophageal cancer, announced in a press interview that the disease had spread to his liver, and said he was "dying." In an interview with the Uruguayan news agency "Busqueda", the man known as "the poorest president in the world" said that the most malignant disease had spread in his body and reached his liver, and he could no longer bear it. "My life cycle has ended, I am dying now, and a warrior has a right to rest," said José Mujica, president of Uruguay from 2010 to 2015, according to Búsqueda, a Thursday magazine in Montevideo, the capital of Uruguay, known as the Switzerland of Latin America. Mujica is known for refusing to live in the presidential palace after his election, and he donated 90% of his $4,000 salary to charities while he was president. He also continued to live in a more than ordinary house, on a small farm with his wife and dog, and commute to the presidential palace in a 1987 Volkswagen that he drives himself, and which is worth barely $1,200 today. As for his illness, he underwent 32 sessions of radiation therapy and then chemotherapy, after which the tumor initially disappeared, but it returned more severely in the liver two months ago. "I won't be able to stop him, because I'm old and I can't stand treatment or surgery anymore," Mujica said, explaining that he asked doctors not to make him suffer "for nothing, because when my turn comes I will die," he said in the interview. The world's poorest president said, "What I ask for is to be left alone. I want to die on my farm, and my final resting place will be under its soil next to my dog, Manuela."
