PHOENIX, Arizona (World News Bureau) - Arizona Senator John McCain is resting comfortably after undergoing emergency surgery on Friday.
Sources say doctors discovered a 'suspicious area' near the left frontal lobe of the 80-year-old politician during a routine annual physical. Testing determined the area to be an approximately two inch pocket of conservatism, which was then successfully removed during a three-hour surgery.
"We are comfortable that we got it all. A scan done Sunday morning showed no further traces of conservatism in the Senator," said Dr. Sanjeve Gupta, Head of Neurology at the Mayo Clinic in Phoenix.
UPDATE: Please be aware this was written before Senator McCain was diagnosed with cancer. My prayers are with the Senator and his loved ones.
