Kennedy’s brain surgery ‘successful’
Sen. Edward Kennedy’s (D-Mass.) doctor said Monday that the surgery on the Massachusetts senator’s brain tumor "was successful."
{mosads}"Sen. Kennedy was awake during the resection, and should therefore experience no permanent neurological effects from the surgery," Dr. Allan Freidman said in statement.
"The surgery lasted roughly three and a half hours and is just the first step in Sen. Kennedy's treatment plan. After a brief recuperation, he will begin targeted radiation at Massachusetts General Hospital and chemotherapy treatment. I hope that everyone will join us in praying for Sen. Kennedy to have an uneventful and robust recovery."
