In late October 2018, President Granger was diagnosed with the non-hodgkin lymphoma, a type of cancer which develops in a network of vessels and glands spread throughout the body.
He was been receiving chemotherapy at the Centro de Investigaciones Médicas Quirúrgicas (CIMEQ) in Havana, Cuba. But following his last visit last month, it was announced that the Head-of-State will begin radiotheraphy in early April 2019.
