John McCain doesn't look healthy. The swelling on the left side of his face looks to have enlarged. They stripped all those lymph nodes on that side when they did the melanoma removal, which accounts for a lot if not all of the swelling. But it seems to have grown more pronounced, and his left eye looks to be affected by it. When you remove a melanoma lesion, you try to make as wide and deep of an excision as possible. That's kinda hard to do on the face, where multiple nerves and little "free" tissue exists.

The other thing about McCain - he was on tv (LKL or something) two or three days after his wife had the stroke. He was hawking his book. Wouldn't you think the guy'd be at his wife's side for at least a week after such a traumatic event?

Several people commented on McCain seemingly worrying more about face time on TV than on his incapacitated wife. Strange.
