Maradona, who was hospitalized for alcoholic hepatitis in March and then moved to a psychiatric clinic two weeks ago, will continue going to the clinic three times a week for follow-up treatment, Dr. Alfredo Cahe said.
"We will continue taking care of his liver," Cahe said. "The important factors have been abstinence, which he is handling well, and the liver issue. Hepatitis evolves in a certain way and it must be controlled. He's getting better and better."
