    With Peronists you can never believe what they say. Perhaps she did have papillary cancer and the Peronists are covering it up

    That is the problem when you have a reputation for being a liar. She has lied about so many things is is always a possibility that she lied about having cancer to keep her victim status. She cannot play the 'widow-woman' card forever. However, I suspect this was a massive mistake by the 'top' doctors in Argentina. Why on earth anyone would announce they had cancer before a proper biopsy has been carried out is impulsive at best.

    I bet all those people holding the Evita-style vigil outside the hospital feel like complete twats now.

    we always knew her problems are in her mind, she's always lying. The funniest part was seeing all those good for nothing pumpkin heads around the hospital roasting in the sun and praying for her, while she was inside enjoying the air conditioner and fruit juices hahaha

    Did anyone celebrate her having cancer? I think that people were very sympathetic until they realised it was another one of her false dramas.

    4 Marcos Alejandro----- Nope, I don't and never will, what frigging sort of health service have they in Argentina? Must remind myself that when I take my cruise this year down that neck of the wood not to be taken ill in Argentina. Top doctor more like top vet, one more reason to laugh at the silly dickheads, Argentina is not even a third world country now, what a bunch of frigging pricks.

    “This is the first “false positive” we have recorded in the Maipú Diagnosis centre since 1983” revealed Carrascosa who added that the centre receives over 1.200 patients annually and “our team was one of the first in doing biopsies in Argentina, with a long solid, proven experience”.
    SO, AFTER 33,600 BIOPSIES WITHOUT AN ERROR OF THIS NATURE BEFORE, THEY HAVE ONE WITH CFK?

    INCREDIBLE (please check the meaning of incredible)

    Still waiting to see that neck! :o)
