Please pray for Ted
Ted Kennedy is one of the men I admire most, and has been all my life.
He’s a lion of a man, a fighter for the least of those and now, you can be sure, for himself.
Please join me in remembering Ted to his Creator.

Kennedy has malignant tumor; prognosis is uncertain at best (Boston Globe)
US Senator Edward M. Kennedy has been diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor, his doctors said yesterday, and the prognosis appears uncertain at best for the last surviving brother of the famed Kennedy clan, who has been an enormous force in American politics for nearly half a century.
The announcement was made three days after Kennedy, 76, was stricken at the family’s Hyannis Port compound. Doctors at Massachusetts General Hospital conducted a battery of tests, including a biopsy, and identified a cancerous mass on the top left portion of his brain as the cause of his seizure.
The news sent shockwaves across Massachusetts, which he has represented in the Senate for more than 45 years, and across Washington, where he is held in high esteem by Democrats and Republicans alike. Many of his Senate colleagues were visibly shaken, some tearing up, and they quickly expressed their hope for the best possible outcome.
