    McCain stops brain cancer treatment

    Senator John McCain (R-AZ) has decided to stop treatment for the brain cancer he has been battling for over a year, his family said Friday, according to CNN.

    "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," the McCain family said in a statement.
