BREAKING: McCain is discontinuing treatment for brain cancer

This is not good news for John McCain and his family. His brain cancer has gotten so bad that they are discontinuing treatments, which means he’s probably entering his final days.

Here’s the statement from the family:

“Last summer, Senator John McCain shared with Americans the news our family already knew: he had been diagnosed with an aggressive glioblastoma, and the prognosis was serious. In the year since, John has surpassed expectations for his survival. But the progress of disease and the inexorable advance of age render their verdict. With his usual strength of will, he has now chosen to discontinue medical treatment. Our family is immensely grateful for the support and kindness of all his caregivers over the last year, and for the continuing outpouring of concern and affection from John’s many friends and associates, and the many thousands of people who are keeping him in their prayers. God bless and thank you all.”

While we have certainly disagreed with the longtime senator, this is very sad news.
