BOSTON -- (AP) -- Doctors for the Massachusetts Democrat say tests conducted after Sen. Edward 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.

Senator Edward M. Kennedy is one of the most consequential politicians of the past century. Like any politician of consequence, he's done things I like and things I don't like, but his passing from the political scene...and soon to Eternal Rest...gives me a deep sense of loss.
If you're from Massachusetts, only the name Plymouth Rock has more endurance than the name Ted Kennedy.
Love him or hate him, this is significant.

I think only Senator Byrd of West Virginia has served longer in the Senate, of the current active Senators. And there are a number of bridges named after Senator Byrd, too.

Time for the Senate to 'pick his brain' ...(while they can).... :-other Kennedy who killed his passengers by flying straight into the water!

Now c'mon. It's not like he killed anyone! (Nevermind...)
/ticket to hell, first class, window seating?
Besides, it's disrespectiful to mock the dying. Wish you chaps'd quit it.
//I deserve my own private aircraft and private pilot for that!
That's not a Ted joke, I meant the other Kennedy who killed his passengers by flying straight into the water!
///nice handbasket, am I the only one smellin' brimstone? :)
But have you noticed the tradgedies of the Kennedys could have been avoided simply by a switch of the cars?
John should have had the hard top and Ted should have had the convertible!

Exactly what I wanted to say, but couldn't find the words. I do not think Massachusetts, or for that matter the Senate, will see another of his caliber for a long time.

Not to mention that he is the last of the Kennedy boys. Even if you're a Republican, if you went through the sixties the name Kennedy takes on a whole different meaning. I hope it goes into remission.

To think, advances in medicine is still young...with the 2000's here, we have no cure for brain tumors...or at least this kind.
my hair stylist was talking with me and as it turned out, she said she had one in 1999...and she's still around, so I took back my repeating, survivors only last 1/2-5 years.
