I watched it on TV, tears streaming down my face, feeling guilty I wasn't there, and wishing my folks hadn't gone to Yosemite for a few days, cuz I really need a hug from them.

Ted Kennedy returns to D.C. residence ______________________________________________________________ October 29, 2008 WASHINGTON - Senator Edward M. Kennedy, who has been battling a severe form of brain cancer from his home on Cape Cod, returned to his residence in Washington yesterday, a sign that his treatments have been progressing well. The Massachusetts Democrat, who was diagnosed about six months ago, had been convalescing in Massachusetts since the tumor was discovered and will continue his treatments in the nation's capital. "His doctors are very pleased with his progress," said Melissa Wagoner, his spokeswoman. The senator plans to remain in Washington until returning to Massachusetts for Thanksgiving, she added. Wagoner declined to speculate on when Kennedy might return to his full duties in the Senate, which is in recess for the rest of the year. But his return to Washington could coincide with Democrats' plans to call a special session of Congress after the Nov. 4 election. While receiving treatment, the 76-year-old lawmaker has been working from the Cape, including teaming up with the Bush administration and Bay State lawmakers to secure federal aid for Massachusetts' first-in-the-nation healthcare plan. His staff is already working on a healthcare package that it hopes to get passed if Senator Barack Obama is elected president. Kennedy is a strong supporter of the Democratic presidential candidate. Since his diagnosis, Kennedy has returned to the Senate just once, in July, to cast a tiebreaking vote on long-delayed Medicare legislation. He was briefly hospitalized last month after a mild seizure, which doctors attributed to a change in his medication. -The Boston Globe
