Update on Sen Kennedy

Sen. Ted Kennedy 'Conscious' and Responsive After Suffering Seizures

Saturday, May 17, 2008

Sen. Ted Kennedy's condition appeared to be improving as his friends, family and colleagues prepared for the night watch Saturday evening after two apparent seizures sent him to a Boston hospital.

The Massachusetts senator is "conscious, talking, joking with family," according to a spokeswoman.

Kennedy, 76, did not suffer a stroke and "is not in any immediate danger," said Dr. Larry Ronan, the senator's primary care physician.

"He's resting comfortably, and watching the Red Sox game with his family," Ronan said. "Over the next couple of days, Senator Kennedy will undergo further evaluation to determine the cause of the seizure, and a course of treatment will be determined at that time."
