In an appearance of Oprah Winfrey's program, Vicki Kennedy describes her late husband Ted's cancer ordeal:
She also told Winfrey about how her husband kept working on his book after his diagnosis and even was calling colleagues in the Senate to talk about strategy to push through legislation as he was traveling to Duke University Medical Center in Durham, N.C. to undergo brain surgery.
