Kennedy 'has brain tumour'
Gulf Daily News ^ | May 20, 2008 | Staff

WASHINGTON: Massachusetts Senator Edward Kennedy has a malignant brain tumour, his doctors said last night, of a type considered potentially very dangerous. Kennedy has a glioma and likely will require chemotherapy and radiation therapy, neurologist Dr Lee Schwamm of Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, and Dr Larry Ronan, a primary physician there said.

Kennedy, 76, has been admitted to hospital since he had a seizure on Saturday. He was airlifted to Massachusetts General Hospital on Saturday morning after being rushed by ambulance to a local hospital near his family's Cape Cod vacation compound.

This is just HORRIBLE. I am terribly, terribly hurt by the thought that someone might make snide remarks on this awful, terrible, really bad, bad, bad, and super-bad occasion. Really. Sincerely.

My Uncle just had a brain tumor removed 2 weeks ago. It was benign and he is doing ok.

Sad for the family. Hope he recovers to fight the conservatives in the future.
