Ted Kennedy, who was diagnosed in May with a cancerous brain tumor, was rushed to a Cape Cod hospital today.

“Senator Kennedy experienced a mild seizure at home in Hyannis Port today and was taken to Cape Cod Hospital for examination. Doctors believe the incident was triggered by a change in medication. Senator Kennedy will return home tonight and looks forward to watching the debate,” Kennedy’s reps tell us.

The 76-year-old was “alert and responsive” en route to the hospital. He’s since returned home, says the Associated Press, mere hours after being rushed by ambulance to the Cape Cod medical center at about 5 p.m.

Ted Kennedy’s office has said he plans to return to Senate this January.

Ted Kennedy, the 76-year-old Democrat is undergoing radiation and chemotherapy for his cancer, and has been vocal about his support for Barack Obama.

“After completing treatment, I look forward to returning to the United States Senate and to doing everything I can to help elect Barack Obama as our next president,” Kennedy said.

All our best well-wishes for Sen. Ted Kennedy.
