US Senator Edward M. Kennedy, the veteran lawmaker from Massachusetts who is the last surviving brother in the legendary Kennedy family, has been diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor, his doctors said today.
Specialists in Boston and around the country said the information released indicated that Kennedy has terminal cancer and might have only a limited time to live.

Prayers for his full recovery from this awful affliction, AND for a long and healthy retirement from this point on.
That being said, I hope he never again is in a decision making capacity. This man has done so much damage to our country.
The best care OUR money can buy.
Tough prognosis, we wish him the best.
As much as I hold the “Swimmer” in disdain, I could never wish this upon him. Saying prayers for him and his family.
Prayers for him to repent and make a good confession and turn his life around, before it's too late.
while he did commit murder and got away with it, I have a hard time being fine with this.
Gonna be a busy day.... Prayers up for Mods as well.
I’d like to know if it is on the same side of his head that he uses for his cell phone. This danger is under publicized.
I worry about all these young kids growing up with cellphones.
I wouldn’t wish this on him. Hope he beats it. Is it operable or treatable?
Strange how you can wish all sorts of terrible things upon someone who has almost single-handedly destroyed the country and then you hear about something like this and you remember what your grandmother told you about not saying anything if you have nothing nice to say, so..............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
God bless and protect.
He has a glioma brain tumor- a very serious diagnosis.
God be with Senator Kennedy and his family.
Amen to that.
Mods: You have my word: No attacks from this end.
I just heard that it’s brain cancer and will probably spread ver quickly.
I hate cancer. Can I just say that?
God bless the old coot. I hope he uses his time to draw closer to Him.
