Ted Kennedy

This is sad. I heard it is inoperable. Hopefully chemo and radiation will shrink it. They have had much tragedy in their family already.

It is striking how much tragedy this family has endured. I also note that your post is the only expression of sympathy or concern. Is such indifference typical of this area?

No, but I think many are not posting in hopes of avoiding crass and tacky comments by those who look at someone like Ted Kennedy as easy bait- I guess making lame comments makes them feel "big" in some way.

I am sad for him and his family- brain cancer is so awful, and has touched my family too.

Help?

I cannot fathom the thinking that does not reflect the "Judge not lest ye be also judged" christian ethic. I know you are correct but what has happened that this area has fallen to that level of humanity?

It's not just "this area"- there are people on this board from all over the country. I have found that most of the locals that I know and spend time with are not like this thankfully.

Sounds like you may be the one doing the judging. Think about it.

My heart has sank at the news and I will follow his progress. If I don't come on here offering prayers on this message board because you asked me to, does that mean I haven't and won't pray for him? How would you know? Please don't judge me. Thanks.

His situation is very unfortunate... But, he's an older gentleman (some would use other words here) that has lived a VERY full life.

Now for something completely different...

I wasn't around when "Chappaquiddick" took place, but it'd be interesting to know if the people that are praying for Ted Kennedy now praid for the family of Mary Jo Kopechne...

"Jensieblue" did you pray for Mary Jo and her family...?

Pray for his healing.
And what ever happens, God's will be done.

If Thanks were given in the Lounge I would give them to Jdarg comments.

To jensieblue; I would also say that I agree with Rita: to think that because one does not comment on a public forum such as this; to every thing posted, does not mean one does not pray and have deep sympathy for the Kennedy family.

To think so is to judge those that did not wish to make a public statement.

I've been thinking about Ted everyday now. I've known 2 people in the last 18 months who suffered thru 6 months and died of the exact same type of brain cancer.
