No way would I want to help this man in any way. Perez, you should be ashamed of yourself.
IT JUST SEEMS YOU HAVE A DOUBLE STANDARD. I STILL A FAN PERES BUT KENNEDY WAS NOT A SAINT! (I DO FEEL BAD HE HAS CANCER)
poor guy.
cure for cancer…
what bullshit
HOW ABOUT YOU DO THE SAME FOR MADD. I'M SURE YOU HAVE MADE A BAD CHOICE IN YOUR LIFE. THE ONLY THING IS NICK HAD SOMETHING BAD COME OF IT AND YOU DIDN'T!
Boo…
poor kennedy..
I am
a
gangster
vote
obama
the gangster way
we kill people
and leave
them alone
to die
thats
my
motto
Maybe when he tells the truth about Chappaquidick I give some money.
nobody is going to donate shit with gas at $4 a gallon
Honestly people. Grow up. Im sure you have done something bad in your life that you should be ashamed of too. Do you think Ted has no regrets for this? Im sure he still thinks about it every day! He has done a lot for this country. You should not wish death upon anyone, you doing so you may as well have bad karma and get what you deserve. Shame on you for leaving horrible, negative comments for a charity for a worthwhile cause. No where in this article mentions any of this money will be given to Ted Kennedy. This is going out to others with brain tumors. So shame on all of you with negative responses. Keep your comments elsewhere! Karma will find you too!
Thank you for posting this worthwhile cause. Brain cancer does not get the same funding or research as other types of cancer. Whether you like Ted Kennedy or not, this is something that I will gladly donate to. My aunt was diagnosed with the same type of brain tumor as Kennedy. She is 40 years old and has 2 yound daughters. Think about her when you make your donation instead.
What a Crock… How about a benefit for young murdered women named Mary Jo? Come on Perez.. This guy is just an older OJ.. No tears here.. Karma is a bitch Teddy..
Very compassionate comment. Just because he's been an ass in the past doesn't mean he deserved to get brain cancer. You should grow up.
Why does Ted Kennedy have to get brain cancer for people to care about it? In my family we have been dealing with brain cancer for 6 years–my husband has gotten it twice. It annoys me that when a regular person has it, no one cares–but if a Kennedy gets it, then it is important. Ugh!!
Re: mscharlie – Thank god someone else is mature enough to understand
Once again, so many of us, including young people (im 22) are suffering from this disease….it just takes a public figure to give it some attention (and perhaps David Cook's brother and Grey's Anatomy). Brain cancer eats away at your family, and yourself. I am all too familiar with it….Think of other people - think about the fact my hot ass hasn't had sex in 8 months since I have no sex drive from chemo!!!!!!!!! DO IT FOR THE LOVE MAKING!!!!
Re: a mom – unfortuntately when people have celebrity status you are more likely to hear about it more than someone down the street. My prayers are wiht you!
Not in the name of this dirtball politician.
How to you spell Karma…burn in hell Teddy..
I will grieve with the family of Mary Jo, when he is gone!
America will never forget the family of Mary Jo..may be rest in peace
go ahead and delete how American feels Perez…
Only keep the positive comments..
Thats what the media did to Mary Jo
Someonew told me she saw her on "c e l e b m i n g l e . c o m" lastweek. I am wondering what kind of relationship he is looking for on that site.
His family has had the curse since the booze running days when they did some very evil things…check it out, its history..You can only get away with murder so long.
Give me a break. Why don't the do-gooder Kennedy's give all their money and I mean every last penny to the worthwhile cause?
Vote For Hilary.Women are next! Women are the future, men are soon to sidelined.
Chappaquiddick!!!! Ted Kennedy is a piece of shit!
Re: Ness –
Hang in there. As a caregiver of a loved one with this disease, I understand the devastating effects that this disease has on you and your family. You are in my prayers!!
I love that you are doing this Perez. NO ONE deserves to suffer and it's great to see some people showing compassion. All the positive energy helps, even if we can't spare any change to donate because of sick gas prices.
Chappaquiddick!!!! Ted Kennedy is a piece of shit!!
Way to go, Perez. My oldest friend is currently battling brain cancer herself. We have been friends since childhood & I wouldn't wish this on anyone, regardless of their past. Love or hate Ted Kennedy, there are too many battling this daily & I'm glad to see you speak up for such a worthwhile cause!
Too bad it's Kennedy and not a complete waste of fleash like Perez…
Please stop making this guy look like a good person. He LET A WOMAN DIE AND DID NOTHING TO HELP. He is not worth being the "face" of this terrible illness. ENOUGH ALREADY!!!!
Ha, Ha What comes around goes around and there isn't anyone more deserving then Ted Kennedy!!!!
Ted murdered Mary Jo Kopechne and got away with it. How about a benefit for her and her family? Or did Ted already pay them off to keep quiet? Why was he never prosecuted for this? Is he above the law? I think not. Karma. Karma
F**ck yourself LD. hope your child gets left in a lake by a drunk fratboy with cash!!!!
Thank you thank you Perez for bringing light to this foundation. You are not helping ted kennedy personally, meliss, there are thousands of people dying from primary brain tumors every year. Unfortuntately, it doesn't get as much press as say, breast cancer, and it takes "celebrities" being diagnosed to bring light to it. My mom died after eleven short months post-diagnosis-of a glioblastoma multiforme. Other people benefit from your donations, its not about Ted Kennedy.
my cousin just died of brain cancer and no one could do anything to help her. but now that a kennedy is diagnosed thats all i have to fucking hear about. yea well hes 76, my cousin, 21…at least he lived a long life.
My beautiful roommate from college had breast cancer that spread to her brain, which ultimately killed her at the age of 35. I will donate in her honor.
Re: Hey_Dude – I dont understand what you are doing on this website, much less leaving comments, if you think perez is such a piece of shit. grow up.
Yes, Ted murdered Mary Jo Kopechne. He left her to die in Chappaquidick. Look at www.ytedk.com and read for yourself
Fuck fat Teddy - first off his seizure was probably alcohol withdrawal. Secondly, that miserable bastard can't die fast enough. I only hope that God lets Mary Jo be the one to toss that murderer into HELL!
Re: crisco – Re: fake – THIS IS NOT A FAKE CHARITY. And PErez doesnt get money from it. If you frequent the site, which I'm sure you do if you are leaving comments, you would remember that Perez mentioned one charity in the beginning, and was told that because he mentioned it, they got thousands and thousands of hits they wouldnt have otherwise got. There is nothing wrong with him posting charities soley out of the goodness of his heart. And it is not a fake charity, they do so much good work, they are completely focused on research for brain tumors.
Let that cocksucker DIE!
My great grandma had the exact same type of tumor/cancer that Kennedy does. It was a really hard thing to go through because when they removed the tumor she only lived for a couple weeks and she wasn't the same person. She showed no emotions and barely knew who her family was. It's really sad that people on this thread can't get past the fact that he wasn't the best person in the world. So what? He is certainly not the ONLY person who suffers from this disease. My heart breaks for those people who have to go through this and their families because I know what its like. Please look past Kennedy and know you'd be helping the many other people who are suffering from the same thing.
Look at www.ytedk.com –read for yourself
I will send them some money as soon as 'ol Teddy assumes room temp.
Screw him. I hope it is painful. REAL painful.
Well, it would seem that Ted Kennedy's conscience has finally caught up with him… and it only took 39 years. He is 76 years old and has led a very full and very privileged life - which is more than you can say for Mary-Jo Kopechne - who he left to slowly die, terrified in a car. Instead of walking to the lit house 400 ft away to get help - he instead walked back to the party - then back to his hotel for a shower and a nap (taking time out to complain about the noise of a party to the night clerk) and didn't say a SINGLE WORD to anyone who would help (his lawyer friends attempted to help but still did not report the incident) until the next morning. Reports show that she survived in that car for a couple of hours…imagine for a moment what that experience would have felt like for her. She didn't drown - she suffocated and Ted Kennedy just walked away. His actions and choices were spectacularly evil. Sure - everyone makes a 'mistake'… but in those instances, one goes to get help - not into cover your ass mode. So his brain tumor is going to cause him difficulty speaking… looks like that is nothing new.
The amazing thing is america has gone all googly-eyed for the love in of the last 'kennedy'… overlooking the darkness in that small shallow heart of his…if that doesn't tell you everything right there… nothing will.
Hey! maybe OJ can give the eulogy…
America. Wake the f*k up already.
Sounds like Mary Jo Kopechne might finally get her chance at Teddy.

Hey, Kennedy killed a young woman years ago, now it is his time to die and see her at the gates of heaven where he just may get a finger pointing his place in hell! Using his picture to seduce me into giving money for brain tumors is asinine to say the least!
You're a real dickhead Perez for doing this…scumbag!
This is karma for him leaving an innocent girl to die!
Maybe he should drive off a bridge and end it all… alone this time.
Re: christina – Too bad I dont have any kids. go fuck yourself and get a life you cunt. HOpe you rot in hell
Re: LD – Be more specific…what has Teddy done for our country. Here's what I know him for:
-Voted NO on declaring English the official language of the US government. (Jun 2007)
-Voted YES on allowing illegals to participate in Social Security.(May 2006)
-He voted against the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act.
-Voted YES on setting aside 10% of highway funds for minorities & women. (Mar 1998)
And let us not forget the Chappaquidick coverup. I do not wish for anyone to have to battle illness; however, it's rediculous how the media is portraying the man as a saint.
Donate?…Why arent the Kennedy's doing the donating. They are one of the richest families around. We can barely make ends meet theses days because of asshole polititians boosting our gas prices. Let them help us for a change
my dad was diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor last year.. and i mean, obviously if you dont support kennedy ya can still support the cause.
don't forget about the American Brain Tumor Association - abta.org
Also very very WORTHWHILE!!!
TED, YOU DIDNT EVENHAVE TO BE MAN ENOUGH TO JUMP INTO THE WATER TO SAVE ME YOURSELF. ALL YOU HAD TO DO WAS CALL FOR HELP AND STAND ON THE RIVER BACK LIKE THE COWARD YOU ARE. INSTEAD YOU CHOSE TO GO BACK TO THE HOTEL AND HAVE A BEER AND WARM SHOWER AND GET A GOOD NIGHTS SLEEP WHILE I CHOKED AND FROZE IN THE COLD DEPTHS. AND EVEN AFTER YOU MURDERED ME DID YOU REPENT AND TRY TO BECOME A BETTER PERSON BY DEDICATING YOUR LIFE TO HELPING OTHERS? NO INSTEAD YOU HAD THE NERVE TO STAY IN POLITICS WHERE YOU SPENT THE NEXT 45 YEARS STEALING FROM HARD WORKING PEOPLE, DRINKING AND RACE BAITING. DAMN YOU, DAMN YOU STRAIGHT TO THE HEEL WHERE YOU BELONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fuck Ted Kennedy. I hope this cancer is just strong enough to make it painful, but not strong enough to kill him quickly.

Karma is a bitch - still remembering Mary Jo Kopechne…
Maybe someone should set a Mary Jo Koepekne Foundation for people who are left to die.
Okay, Perez…let's get this straight…you want us to care about Senator Kennedy's tumpr? Just like he cared about that girl who died in that accident because he LET her die while he swam to safety. His punishment? Loss of his driver's priveleges for a year…or maybe this is his real punishment…gotta love the wheel of karma. Anyway, quit glorifying this douche bag. His politics were more important than that woman's life.
Yes, I am sad for his family that he has terminal cancer, but this murderer has had too many years on earth since poor Mary Jo Kopechne met her untimely death.
The Tale of Teddy part I
Once upon a time there was a rich US senator named Teddy. He had a beautiful wife who loved him very much, but Teddy was a naughty boy. He liked to drink whiskey and play with other women. Teddy also liked to drive fast after drinking lots of whiskey.
Teddy liked Mary Jo. One night after drinking a fifth of whiskey, Teddy asked Mary Jo to go for a ride in Teddy's Oldsmobile. Mary Jo got in the car and wheee! down the road Teddy raced.
Soon they came upon a bridge. Teddy told Mary Jo to hang on while he floored it. Then something bad happened. Teddy's car plunged into the dark river.
Teddy managed to get out of the car and slowly and steadily swam to shore. Those swimming lessons really paid off!
Mary Jo cried out "Help!" but Teddy didn't hear her as he ran home. Teddy's Oldsmobile sank to the bottom of the river and there Mary Jo died. She lived for a while down there in the murky water, trapped in the Oldsmobile. Mary Jo's body was found pressed up in the car in the spot where an air bubble would have formed. Thank goodness she had about 2 hours before she died so she could get right with God!
The Tale of Teddy part II
Teddy made it to his hotel alive, got into bed and passed out.
The next morning, when Teddy came to, he told his friends what had happened. He was afraid people would wonder why he was in his car late at night with Mary Jo and not his wife. They might wonder why he drank lots of whiskey, drove his Oldsmobile and left Mary Jo in the car to die. He was mostly afraid that he might be fired from the senate or go to jail. Then he wouldn't be able to drink whiskey and play with women.
His friends told him not to worry they would make this bad thing go away. Teddy's rich dad always paid people to make bad things go away. Teddy could do the same.
Teddy and his friends were outside when they saw the police driving to the bridge. Oh no! The accident had been discovered!
All you bleeding heart sissies should step back on this one. It's not like this happened to a good person, if it did then I would feel bad. But Kennedy is a worthless parasite, a murderer, and the type of person who deserves brain cancer 100%.
Save your money. Organizations like this will never cure brain cancer/tumors because they are looking for solutions in all the wrong places and ignoring what is right in front of them.
Cancer has grown over the past century due entirely to the constant onslaught of new MAN MADE chemicals and poisons being released into our atmosphere every day. These toxins enter our body through air water even our food and the only way to fully understand how to cure oneself on cancer is to understand that these toxins need to be removed from the body via alternative means.
Chemotherapy is a joke. I am shocked that more people dont question this practice. It goes to show how naive people can be. Chemotherapy is not medicine. All the drugs used in chemo are cancer causing. Does that make sense to anyone?
Spread the word to everyone you know who has a loved one considering such a barbaric form of cancer treatment. You cannot poison the body into health. That is why cancer tends to "come back" in these people. It never really left. You cannot treat the symptom of cancer [tumors] You must treat the cause.
Google alternative cancer treatments to find out how removing chemicals from your body cells will remove cancer as well. Do it. You will be surprised at how many books and other resources are available for you to educate yourselves.
DONT BE NAIVE PEREZ!
Re: mscharlie –
Do a little research and find out why they call old Teddy "The Swimmer". This man has done more harm in his life than good. Karma is a bitch.
The Kennedy family is one of the most currupt families in history. These people have killed, stolen, lied, raped, molested children, etc.. to get power and money. They actually still get money from a tariff on all Scotch that is imported into this country (thanks to their crooked politician family members).
There is a reason tragedy hovers over this family like a black cloud. The term "Karma is a Bitch" actually was created because of these evil inbread bastards.
begger mentality. no one is here for philanthropy. except pathetic sheep who don't know the meaning of the word: Hyposcrisy

I will not donate to an organization who uses the picture of a murderer as their poster child. Sorry. Does Mary Jo have a foundation I could donate to instead?
I'll totally donate to the Brain Tumor Foundation, plus I'll also pony up the money for the bullet we can shoot right into Ted Kennedy's brain. It's the humane thing to do. Unfortunatley since he's going straight to hell he won't be able to tell that poor girl he's so sorry for what he did.
My mom died from the same tumor in Jan of 06.
It was very hard watching this happen.
I miss her everyday and I couldn't imagine how hard it is for his family. I had her around for almost 3 years after her seisure that diagnosed her with this horrible cancer.
Lets have a walk for this in Baltimore Maryland on the 20th of Sept….!!!!
Ted Kennedy aside, my brother died two years ago from a brain tumor. He had it for 11 years and together we went through two surgeries, three rounds of chemo and one round of radiation. He had some of the best doctors in NYC if not the world and he could not be saved. I watched him suffer through this disease and die an undescribably painful and horrible death. So whatever your feelings for Ted Kennedy may be, think about the people as a whole with the disease, instead of someone you dislike.
Re: Beautifulbrat –
And to all the other respondents on this site with family members who have or had this awful disease, my heart is with you and I know the pain that you're going through.
I will help Teddy as much as he helped Mary Jo. No wander his head is do FAT.
BTW, I doubt that not many of us has screwed up as much as him and his family.
Okay, if you want to support brain cancer research thats cool, but dont spearhead ted friggen kennedy as the figure head for it. Hes a douche bag and thats putting it nicely. Heard about his DUI incident a few decades ago when he crashed his car into a lake and left the lady with him in there and she died? He's an ass, and karma's a bitch.
He deserves the same level of help he gave that poor little girl fighting to breath under water, trapped in his car. Never moving a finger to give her any chance at life but giving himself plenty of time to enjoy his own drunken life.
you got to love it when the self serving trash of this country ask for cash they always use the same time worn ploys 1. It's for the KIDS 2. Let cure cancer.
I hope the suffering that goes with this cancer is like DROWNING.
Mary Jo was in the submerged car alive for possibly 2 agonizing hours before she drowned to death.
Ted's deathbed:
Warm, soft, fresh air, steady flow of strong narctic pain medicine, nurses, doctors, family, friends and priest gathered around Ted to support him with kind words so he doesn't die alone. Ted's frightened cries of pain are attended to promptly because Ted gets what he wants.
Mary Jo's deathbed:
Chillingly cold, watery, claustrophobic, hard, quickly diminishing supply of oxygen, every wrenching ache of pain is felt, no family, friends and priest gathered around Mary Jo to support her with kind words, instead she dies alone. Mary Jo's frightended cries of pain are in vain because Ted walked past 4 homes and told no one of the crash until nearly 24 hours later and only because the crash had been discovered.
My mom has brain cancer…..I know exactly what his family is going through.
Ted kennedy = karma! He left that poor pregnant girl in that car in the lake. Chappaquiddick. There was actually scratch marks on the inside roof where she wastrying to claw herself out.
I just lost a very dear NINE year old friend to a brain tumour. It was an incredibly cruel and horrible way to die. If cures and treatments can be developed for this condition I would be so happy. No one should have had to die like my friend Ben. This is isn't about Senator Kennedy. He's not the only one with the disease.
I HAVE EXPLOSIVE DIARRHEA AND JUST SHARTED ON MY CAT. Boo to Brain tumors
Re: LD – THANK you, LD! Finally, someone with sense and compassion. I totally agree with you, which if you feel like it, you'll see in my other blogs on Senator Kennedy.
This blog is supposed to be about brain cancer, but since Senator Kennedy's picture is attached, the fire/brimstoners are here to show off their ignorant side. Since they're so perfect they feel like they can judge others, I guess.
To all of you fire/brimstone/karma's a bitch jerks, just go donate to the American Cancer Society and make yourselves useful for a change.
Re: catmore – Well, catmore, let's hope that if you ever get cancer no one says YOU deserve it. Because, after all, I'm SURE you have had a perfect life.
I've had a scare with cancer, and recovered. I've also lost loved ones to it, and it's not a pretty disease. Shame on you for wishing death upon anyone.
Okay, I don't get it - 9 out of 10 people here think Kennedy is a total douchbag killer. How the hell did he manage to get elected and re-elected over the past 4 decades in Massachusettes? Seems to me the voters in Massachusettes are bigger douch bags than Ted Kennedy. That's hard to believe, but obviously true. Who are you douches in Mass. going to elect when Ted's dead, Charlie Manson?
man maybe he can help me. this morning i woke up with a lump on my head..
2 all of u who just have something negative or ridiculous 2 say, u should b ashamed of urselves. Big up 2 u, Perez, 4 shedding some light on a disease that affects many, not just Kennedy!
absolutely agree with post #13. shame on you for judging others. Ted Kennedy is a great man who has done great things for the country. My thoughts and prayers are with him and the kennedys as well as those who are battling with cancer.
For all you people too young to remember Teddy leaving Mary Jo to die you need to know one thing: Teddy was not a fat slob back in 1969 so he could have quickly swam to shore and ran to get help for Mary Jo in plenty of time to save her life. If the same accident happened today Teddy would have died because he would be too large to remove himself from the car.
PS For all we know Teddy may have pushed poor Mary Jo out of his way in his haste to get out of the sunken car and that got her stuck.
Re: Steve – right on steve
I lost my grandma to brain cancer almost four months ago so I'm definitely donating! Thanks so much for sharing the site Perez! I hope the tumour doesn't kill Ted the same way it did my grandma!
Re: LD – Yes, we have done wrong. But MURDER! Can we say OJ Give to the cause because so many people suffer, don't do it because of a Kennedy! Why do we love this corrupt family. He makes me sick. Every good he does will NEVER make it right to commit murder. Please think of the family of Mary Jo.
