That’s Levaquin, it’s known for eat Tendons of older people. It’s also a pretty strong antibiotic that will clear chest and upper respiratory infections. I have taken it a lot more than I should, but a ruptured tendon is better than pneumonia.

I would assume this is what caused McCain’s problem which tells me problems are a lot more serious than reported. Also, he may have stopped Chemo due to an infection.

He will go out like Kennedy. He should retire and go home to Arizona to get right with the Lord. What other than extreme malice keeps him here?

I can see how he would get confused as to which leg needs the boot. If you look at the two boots, you can see that one is made for the right foot and the other one is for the left foot by the way the top flap folds over.

Maybe the right one got well and he blew out the left one. Beats me.

I wonder if this is an ankle tracking bracelet and he is being monitored instead of arrested...?
