Pray For Ted Kennedy

I've just learned that Senator Ted Kennedy has been diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor. I'm floored. I don't like Ted Kennedy's politics at all but I'm asking everyone who reads PGZ to pray for him. Cancer is a demon. I've lost two family members to that monster and I feel for anyone who's stricken with it, and I feel for their families. So please put aside your political animus and pray for Ted Kennedy. He's a human being battling a dread disease; this is no time for schadenfreude. Compassion is what's needed now. May God bless you and keep you, Mr. Kennedy. In Jesus' name, amen.

My Dad of cancer almost 11 years ago....I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

I revile Ted Kennedy's politics and lament the damage he's done this country from fighting for higher taxes (lower tax revenues) and more social spending to championing veritable open borders, but I wouldn't wish cancer on anyone and I hope he's able to recover and devote the rest of a long life to tending to his health.

I will let God take care of that hun. God bless you though.

Very good post. But, I'm from Martha's Vineyard, and many of us islanders feel that Ted Kennedy has yet to answer for Mary Jo Kopechne's death.

I agree "Vengence is Mine, saith the Lord" Not a time for us to start throwing stones.... "Let him who is without sin cast the first stone"...Just a couple of thoughts to ponder as one searches for words...stay well....
