Byrd Goes to Hospital After Fall
Updated 11:49 a.m.
By Ben Pershing
Sen. Robert Byrd (D-W.Va.) was taken by ambulance to an undisclosed hospital this morning after a fall at his Northern Virginia home.
"Byrd apparently stood up too fast this morning in his home and fell down," Byrd spokesman Jesse Jacobs said. "To err on the side of caution his caregiver called an ambulance. He was taken to the hospital where he is currently being checked out. At this point in time there is no indication that he will be admitted."Apolyton's Grim Reaper 2008, 2010 & 2011

That can actually be a pretty serious issue for the elderly; the fact that he probably won't be admitted is a good sign for him, though. If he had broken his hip, he'd almost certainly be admitted, and he would be a decent bet for next year."My nation is the world, and my religion is to do good." --Thomas Paine

Breaks my heart.
LOS ANGELES - Susan Atkins, a follower of cult leader Charles Manson whose remorseless witness stand confession to killing pregnant actress Sharon Tate in 1969 shocked the world, has died. She was 61 and had been suffering from brain cancer.
Atkins' death comes less than a month after a parole board turned down the terminally ill woman's last chance at freedom on Sept. 2. She was brought to the hearing on a gurney and slept through most of it.
California Department of Corrections spokeswoman Terry Thornton said that Atkins died late Thursday night. She had been diagnosed with brain cancer in 2008, had a leg amputated and was given only a few months to live.
She underwent brain surgery, and in her last months was paralyzed and had difficulty speaking. But she managed to speak briefly at the Sept. 2 hearing, reciting religious verse with the help of her husband, attorney James Whitehouse.
She had been transferred to a skilled nursing facility at the California Central Women's Facility at Chowchilla exactly one year before she died.

No comment Sloww? I thought you were a fan. I seem to remember you advocating for her early release."I have never killed a man, but I have read many obituaries with great pleasure." - Clarence Darrow

Letting her out to die isn't really the same thing as being a fan.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

I was actually trolling you as I thought you started a thread opposing her release. My memory is obviously failing me in my old age."I have never killed a man, but I have read many obituaries with great pleasure." - Clarence Darrow
