This 1998 video was aired on Thursday on American channel CBS. The video shows Mandela comforting a teenager, also Nelson, who was suffering from brain cancer. Mandela told the boy:
If your spirit is not optimistic, your morale is not high, medicine is not very effective.
Understanding the fact that I’m near the end, I remain optimistic with my morale very high, because I’m saying I have lived my life.
Shortly after Mandela visited the boy, the teenager passed away.
