Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) was hospitalized on Wednesday for "normal side effects" of the treatments he's receiving for glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer, his office announced in a statement.
McCain, 80, is at Walter Reed Hospital, and "as ever, he remains grateful to his physicians for their excellent care, and his friends and supporters for their encouragement and good wishes," his office said. "Sen. McCain looks forward to returning to work as soon as possible." He was diagnosed in July.
