From the Associated Press:

Columnist Robert Novak was diagnosed with a brain tumor on Sunday and admitted to a Boston hospital.

“On Sunday, July 27, I was diagnosed with a brain tumor. I have been admitted to Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, where doctors will soon begin appropriate treatment. I will be suspending my journalistic work for an indefinite but, God willing, not too lengthy period,” Novak, 77, said in a statement to his publisher, according to HumanEvents.com.

Human Events magazine is published by the same company that publishes the Evans-Novak Political Report, Eagle Publishing.

The diagnosis comes less than a week after Novak was cited in Washington, D.C., for failing to yield to a pedestrian. Novak struck a man while driving his convertible, although the man did not suffer serious injuries.

Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family.

   I thought something was strange when I read the story at the end of last week about his accident in DC but I never imagined this.

   Let’s hope it is an operable tumor and that he will have a complete recovery.

   I thought that he was very much himself and the so called accident was just Novak being Novak. It wouldn’t surprise me if this wasn’t an attempt on his part to end homelessness.
