John McCain, 80, is diagnosed with brain cancer after surgeons remove tumor following routine check-up and complaints of double vision and fatigue



UK Daily Mail  . . . "In a statement late Wednesday, doctors reveal that McCain has been diagnosed with glioblastoma, an aggressive cancer. 
"The statement says the 80-year-old senator and his family are reviewing further treatment, including a combination of chemotherapy and radiation.
"The senator has been recovering at his Arizona home after doctors at the Mayo Clinic removed a blood clot above his left eye.
"The former presidential candidate, who has represented Arizona since 1987, went for his annual checkup, complaining of fatigue and double vision, CNN reported.
"Doctors then performed cat scan, which led to a MRI scan of the brain where they found a blood clot." . . .

A missile struck his plane, shearing off the right wing. McCain ejected, and the force of the maneuver knocked him unconscious and broke both his arms and a leg



Fellow POWs at the Hanoi Hilton helped him survive. McCain is seen above shaking hands with then-President Richard Nixon in September 1973, just months after his release from Vietnamese captivity
