What heartbreaking news.
Doctors say Sen. Edward Kennedy has a malignant brain tumor; a condition discovered after he had seizure.
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.
Kennedy is a fighter. He’ll fight this too. I hope like hell he can beat it.
“God bless you, sir. You have carried on John and Bobby’s legacy with such great ferocity. You are one of the greatest senators of all time. Lion of the Senate.” – TM
Prayers go out to Senator Kennedy, his family and friends.
