Nelson Mandela's former defence lawyer, and close friend, contemplates their shared path.
George Bizos was Nelson Mandela's defence lawyer and they remain close friends.
Only a few weeks ago, the two were talking about the past.
Now Mr Mandela is lying on a hospital bed in a critical condition while many believe that the country is soon to lose its greatest leader.
Mr Bizos speaks to Kyriakos Gold, for SBS radio's Greek program, about Mr Mandela's health, their friendship and South Africa's future.
