Guyana’s Ambassador to Cuba, Halim Majeed announced in a statement today, that President David Granger’s Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma is now in remission.
The Head-of-State returned to Guyana Tuesday night from Cuba having completed a scheduled medical evaluation at the Centre for Medical, Surgical Research (CIMEQ) over the past few days.
Thereafter, the next evaluation will be in June 2020.
President Granger reiterated his gratitude to Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel Bermudez, the Government of Cuba, and the CIMEQ Medical Team which has been responsible for his treatment in Cuba, over the past months.
President Granger was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma – a form cancer that develops in a network of vessels and glands spread throughout the body – by the Cuban medical team late October 2018 and has been undergoing medical treatment and evaluation by specialists at that institution.
