Kennedy’s Brain Cancer Is In Remission

Filed in National by on May 19, 2009

Good news:

Sen. Edward Kennedy’s brain cancer is in remission and he is expected back in the Senate after the Memorial Day recess to spearhead healthcare reform, according to Democratic colleagues.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said Tuesday that he spoke with Kennedy’s wife, Vicki, in the past few days and was told the 77-year-old lawmaker is “doing fine.”

With obstructionist Republicans and recalcitrant conservaDems, the Senate needs all the Democrats it can get. Welcome back, Senator Kennedy!

    Me too. I was very, very glad that he was around for Obama’s inauguration and very glad he’ll be around to make health care reform a reality.
