Another one (almost) gone

Ted Kennedy suffered what appears to have been a stroke while at Hyannisport with his family on Saturday. He was helicoptered to Mass General in Boston from Cape Cod in the afternoon. "Family members and friends gathered in Boston. One person close to the family said that after an initial scare, Kennedy intimates were reasonably optimistic Mr. Kennedy would recover quickly and fully. Another family friend described his medical condition as serious but not life-threatening."
