Ted Kennedy

has just come out of surgery. Doctors say the surgery was "successful":




Article:

Surgeons on Monday performed brain surgery on Sen. Edward M. Kennedy at Duke University Medical Center, and his doctor said the procedure to treat his cancerous brain tumor “was successful and accomplished our goals.”

The 76-year-old senator now faces chemotherapy and radiation to treat the malignant glioma, a lethal type of brain tumor.

Dr. Allan Friedman said Kennedy was awake during the 3½-hour procedure, and should experience no permanent neurological effects from the surgery.


Following the surgery, Kennedy told his wife, Vicki, he felt like a "million bucks."
