Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
Pinochet's son, Marco Antonio Pinochet, told reporters, "He's in a pretty serious state...We're in the hands of God and the doctors." Associated Press reports that Pinochet has received last rites.

sourceChile's former military leader Augusto Pinochet is in a serious but stable condition after being operated on after a heart attack, doctors have said.
The 91-year-old needs a second intervention, state media has reported medics treating him as saying.
The former leader, who was put under house arrest a few days ago, is in a military hospital in Santiago.
Gen Pinochet was in power from 1973-90, during which time more than 3,000 people were killed or "disappeared".
He is accused of dozens of human rights violations but has never faced trial because of poor health.
