This is sad news:
Sen. Edward M. Kennedy say he has a malignant brain tumor.
Doctors for the Massachusetts Democrat say tests conducted after Kennedy suffered a seizure this weekend show a tumor in his left parietal lobe. His treatment will be decided after more tests but the usual course includes combinations of radiation and chemotherapy.
The 76-year-old senator has been hospitalized in Boston since Saturday, when he was airlifted from Cape Cod after a seizure at his home.
His wife and children have been with him each day but have made no public statements.
His doctors said in a statement released to The Associated Press that he has had no further seizures, is in good spirits and is resting comfortably.
I may not agree with Senator Kennedy on many political issues, but this is still awful, sad news. Please join with me in wishing him the best of luck on a quick recovery. My thoughts and prayers go to the Kennedy family in this difficult time.
UPDATE:
Here’s heartbreaking video of Robert Byrd speaking on the Senate floor about Kennedy’s diagnosis; he’s moved to tears. I’ll say it again — I don’t wish this on anyone, and while I disagree with many of Kennedy’s politics, I hold nothing against the man personally. Also worth mentioning is how incredibly difficult this must be for his family and friends; Byrd’s emotional speech shows that. Everyone, let’s please treat this subject with grace and dignity. Keep Senator Kennedy and his family and friends in your thoughts and prayers.
Scott Jacobs says: Don’t care for the man, and I don’t agree with pretty much anything the man’s ever said…
But I truly wish him the best, and my thoughts and prayers are with him and his family. From what I gather this diagnosis is pretty much a death sentence, as pretty much the only treatment is removal of the tumor, and that this one Sen Kennedy has is inoperable.
I hope he uses what time he has left to re-connect with family, and to come to peace with his life.
Good luck Senator. From what I hear, you really do need it.
