McCain calls brain cancer prognosis ‘very poor’

Yahoo News

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. Sen. John McCain says doctors have given him a “very poor prognosis” as he battles brain cancer.

McCain underwent surgery in July for a brain tumor that was later found to be a form of glioblastoma, the same type of cancer that took the life of his former Senate colleague Edward M. Kennedy in 2009. McCain tells CBS’ “60 Minutes” in an interview that aired Sunday night that he thinks about Kennedy a lot. He says Kennedy continued to work despite the diagnosis and “never gave up because he loved the engagement.”  

McCain says he has “feelings sometimes of fear of what happens,” but counters that with gratitude for having lived “had a great life.”

He adds: “it’s not that you’re leaving, it’s that you — that you stayed.”

  1. Well pal
    You stayed too long
    There’s a time for everything, and it’s your time to become dust in the wind
    So the next blowhard like you can blow your dust into a box and possibly give a real patriot a chance

    Don’t go away mad, just go away
    I really hope there is a hell
    Because if there isn’t , where would he end up?
