Former South African President Nelson Mandela is showing a "great improvement" in his health compared to a few days ago, his ex-wife Winnie Madikizela-Mandela has said.
She said: "I'm not a doctor, but I can say that from what he was a few days ago there is great improvement."
Ms Madikizela-Mandela was speaking to reporters outside Mr Mandela's former home in the Johannesburg township of Soweto.
South Africans held an all-night prayer vigil last night for the 94-year-old outside his former home.
President Jacob Zuma cancelled a scheduled trip to neighbouring Mozambique yesterday because of the gravity of Mr Mandela's condition.
An official update yesterday afternoon said Mr Mandela remained critical but was "stable".
This is Mr Mandela's fourth hospitalisation in six months.
US President Barack Obama, who is due in South Africa tonight, said his thoughts and prayers were with the Mandela family and South Africa's 53 million people.
Speaking in Senegal, Mr Obama said the former South African president was a "personal hero".
"Even if he passes on, his legacy will linger on," he said.
Mr Obama has said he was not seeking a "photo op" with the ailing statesman.
