Mandela's release from hospital calms South Africa

Friday, after being released from the hospital, Nelson Mandela returned to his home. Mandela was in the hospital receiving treatment for an acute respiratory infection. Reports said Mandela was in good spirits and is recovering very well. Along with Mandela's family, the rest of South Africa was in anxiety due to the lack of information that was being released on Mandela's state of being. Close family members, including his wife Graca Machel, and several grandchildren and great-grandchildren, visited him while he was in hospital, prompting speculation that his condition was worse than initially reported.
