Won't kick him while he's down but I will say he's done more harm to the country than a lot in office. Still as a human being you don't wish suffering. I have a friend who had brain cancer. He has survived by is impaired.

Senator Kennedy and his family will be in my prayers. They have a difficult road ahead. I wouldn't wish this kind of ill health on anyone- even him.
BOSTON — Sen. Edward M. Kennedy 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. Preliminary results from a biopsy of the brain identified the cause of the seizure as a malignant glioma, they said.
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.
Malignant gliomas are a type of brain cancer diagnosed in about 9,000 Americans a year — and the most common type among adults. It’s a starting diagnosis: How well patients fare depends on what specific tumor type is determined by further testing.
Average survival can range from less than a year for very advanced and aggressive types — such as glioblastomas — or to about five years for different types that are slower growing.

The Senator was given a golden opportunity to do so much in the way of good during his lifetime and he instead used the gift he was given to inflict grief, sorrow, and destruction upon individuals, his fellow countrymen and the United States with no remorse whatsoever, only scheming to do more harm. And he's done so arrogantly, hidden behind the Kennedy name, placed himself above the law and became the poster boy for power and privilege gone berserk as he answered to no one for any of his actions.
He made his choices in life, as we all do, knoing full well that he would answer for those choices in the end. Whatever happens now is strictly between him and God,
I have probably harrassed him more than anyone, during the last amnesty McCain/Kennedy ( I sent him a fax every morning about his 1986 amnesty) but I wish him well and my prayers go out to his family.....
I'll be "Nice" pc like (choke) . So sorry to hear the Great Senator From MA has health problem . Speedy recovery
