Successful Surgery for Dodd
NYT: Successful Surgery for Dodd


Statement from Dodd's office:

Senator Chris Dodd (D-CT) underwent surgery today to treat early stage prostate cancer. The surgery was a success and Senator Dodd is doing well. He will remain in the hospital for a few days. After a brief recuperation at home with his family, he is looking forward to getting back to work later this month on behalf of the people of Connecticut.

Dr. Peter Scardino, Chairman, Department of Surgery at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center released the following statement:

“This morning, Senator Dodd had surgery to treat his early stage prostate cancer. The surgery was successful and the Senator is now resting comfortably. He is expected to be in the hospital for a few days. It is anticipated that he will be able to return to full activity within a few weeks.”

3. I hope for his sake
all his "stuff" still works. I know it wouldn't be easy for me to make the same decision he did.
