Ted Kennedy returned to the Senate today, nearly six months to the day after the seizure that led to the diagnosis of his malignant brain tumor. He was accompanied by his wife and dogs, and was greeted by over 100 staffers. Kennedy spoke about working with President-elect Barack Obama on a variety of issues, including healthcare.

I wonder what treatment he is getting? Most people with brain tumors would like to know. This is NOT usual.

Go get em Ted. Thanks for helping us find a REAL President for a change (we can believe in)
Yes we can with Ted back in the House.
As long as I can remember, the Kennedy family has fought so hard for the little guy, for equality, civil rights, the environment, health care for everyone, and the list goes on....
In the face of many, many adversities, hardships and assasinations, they have risen to a higher cause, lifted us all, by showing us their resilliance.
I simply marvel at the utter strength that seems to be inborn in each and every Kennedy.
I say Thank you senator Ted Kennedy for all you have done, and all you continue to do!
Thank you to all the Kennedy family for what you do to help us all to live in a better world.
It is with the deepest gratitude, that I say a heartfelt thanks for each and every battle you have fought, and for all the people who you have helped along the way.
God Bless you Senator Kennedy, and God Bless the Kennedy family!!!
