Byrd False Alarm

When Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass., suffered a seizure at a post-inauguration luncheon for President Barack Obama, some reported that Sen. Robert C. Byrd, D-W.Va., also had to be taken from the event.

But The Associated Press later explained that Byrd left the luncheon on his own, concerned for Kennedy after having witnessed his friend's collapse.

Kennedy, diagnosed last May with a particularly aggressive type of brain tumor, "was hospitalized Tuesday but quickly reported feeling well," AP reports.
