He is much better today than he was when I saw him last night." / The presidency's update contrasted with earlier remarks by Mandela's eldest daughter to SABC television, that the family was living in great uncertainty. / "I'm not going to lie. He does not look good," Makaziwe Mandela said, but added that she last saw her father on Wednesday. / "I can reiterate that Tata is very critical, that anything is imminent, but I want to emphasise again that it is only God who knows when the time to go is." / She said the family drew hope from signs that South Africa's liberation icon, who was on life-support, was still trying to respond to their presence. / "But I think that for us, as his children and grandchildren, we still have this hope, because when we talk to him, he'd flutter trying to open his eyes. / "When you touch him, he still responds. For us ... as long as Tata is still responding when we touch him, I think that gives us hope." （以下略、引用終わり）
