Former Alberta Premier Ralph Klein, who served as a premier of Alberta from 1993 until 2006 and later engulfed in a state of dementia and lung disease in recent years, has been moved to palliative care. A TV show host and the author of a book on Klein, Don Martin, revealed the sad news through Twitter on Wednesday, reporting that the former premier has reached last stages of his illnesses.
Martin tweeted that “Ralph Klein under palliative care. Albertans should brace for the worst as the people’s premier prepares to move on. Very sad days ahead.” He further revealed during an interview that he has been informed, by the family and friends of Klein, that Klein’s condition has deteriorated. Martin disclosed that “he’s been sleeping an awful lot. He’s lost a lot of weight. He knows fewer and fewer people,” and that “…It is definitely a sad state of affairs and he is in very grave condition.” Klein was moved and kept in a long-term care facility since the fall of 2011, where he was ailing from a form of dementia as well as COPD, i.e. chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder, a lung disease associated with smoking.
Previously it was informed on Tuesday that Klein’s health has declined significantly in recent weeks. The former press secretary of Klein, Marisa Etmanski, informed news sources that there were no plans to move Klein to a hospital. She explained “I know he is not well, and his condition, of course, is progressing.”
