RECOVERING. Senator Ted Kennedy is recovering after completing brain surgery to cut out as much of his cancerous brain tumor as possible. Kennedy was evidently awake during the 3 1/2 hours of risky and delicate surgery. From here Senator Kennedy will under go chemotherapy and radiation. Ted reportedly told his wife, Victoria, afterward: "I feel like a million bucks. I think I'll do that again tomorrow." Kennedy says he hopes to soon be back on the campaign trail and back in the Senate.
