TAKING TEA WITH THE TUTUS: Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu, who has been convalescing at home following treatment in hospital for a stubborn infection and related ailments, surprised staff of the Desmond & Leah Tutu Legacy Foundation in Cape Town when he and Mrs Leah Tutu popped in for tea this morning. "We loved having them for tea, but did not allow him to set foot in his office as his recovery is not quite complete," his daughter the Reverend Canon Mpho Tutu said.

UPDATE ON ARCHBISHOP TUTU'S HEALTH
Statement from the Desmond & Leah Tutu Legacy Foundation, on 1 August 2015
Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu underwent a small investigative procedure last night to determine the status of an infection he has battled to shake off for several weeks.
His medical team pronounced themselves satisfied with the progress of his antibiotic treatment, his daughter, the Reverend Canon Tutu said. He would remain in hospital for further observation and treatment for another few days.
Although the cancer, itself, was under control, the infection was a consequence of past treatment that the Archbishop had received for prostate cancer, the Reverend Canon Tutu said.
On behalf of the family, she again thanked everyone at home, on the continent and abroad whose prayers and support had sustained the Archbishop over the past several weeks. The family was very touched by the graciousness of the ruling party, opposition parties – and President Zuma, who had asked the nation to pray for her father, she said.

ARCHBISHOP TUTU RE-ADMITTED TO HOSPITAL
Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu has been re-admitted to a hospital in Cape Town.
His daughter, the Reverend Canon Mpho Tutu, said the hospitalisation was unrelated to his cancer treatment. His oncologist confirms that his PSA level is pleasingly low.
He was discharged from hospital last Tuesday, and re-admitted this afternoon after expressing renewed discomfort.
"His doctors considered it prudent for him to return to hospital for observation. He'll have a few days of bed-rest while his medical dream team brings the situation under control and determines the next course of action, if any. He will stay in hospital until the weekend, at least," Reverend Canon Tutu said.
Further information would be released as it became available.

Democratic South Africa’s Miserable Week
CAPE TOWN: 29 May 2015 – This week, our President laughed at South Africans trying to hold him accountable for the spending of hundreds of millions of Rands of taxpayers’ money on his private homestead/resort in Nkandla. The following day, his Minister of Police announced that the construction of a swimming pool, kraal and chicken coop at Nkandla were viewed as legitimate security features, and the President would not be required to reimburse any money.
“I have been trying to maintain a lower public profile, not only to rest and spend more time with my beloved spouse of nearly 60 years, but also to make space for younger and sharper individuals – of whom there are many – to have their say,” Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu said.
“However, I think it is incumbent on all South Africans – young and old – to state clearly our acute discomfort, embarrassment and anger at events that have unfolded this week.
“When the South African government denied His Holiness the Dalai Lama a visa to attend the Nobel Laureates Summit in Cape Town last year, I called them a lickspittle bunch. Our police minister’s performance in clearing the President of any responsibility for the Nkandla spending, gave new meaning to the word.
“Instead of setting a good example, our public representatives are humiliating themselves, our country and our people by trying to defend the indefensible. For them to sweep aside of the report of the Public Protector bodes particularly ill for the future of good governance. It is unconscionable to spend hundred of millions of Rands on the President’s spurious “security” needs. The power of the government to manipulate justice comes at great cost to our reputation, our development potential and our hard-won self-belief.”
“I am deeply saddened,” Archbishop Tutu said.
