President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva is awake and conscious after undergoing an emergency brain surgery that adds to the delicate political moment he faces in Brazil.

Lula will stay in the intensive care unit of a Sao Paulo hospital for 48 hours as a precaution, and should be able to return to Brasilia early next week, Doctor Roberto Kalil told journalists on Tuesday.

The 79-year-old president felt headaches Monday and a brain scan showed an intracranial hemorrhage resulting from an accident he had suffered at home in October, doctors said. He was immediately flown to Sao Paulo for surgery, which went on without complications, according to his medical team.

“He’s now stable, talking normally and eating,” Kalil said at the Sirio-Libanes hospital where Lula is being treated. “He had no brain injury.”
