Vice President Joe Biden and his wife, Jill, canceled their planned schedules this afternoon to rush to the bedside of the Vice President's son, and Delaware Attorney General, Beau Biden.  I just received this statement from the White House:

Statement from Dr. Timothy Gardner, Medical Director of the Center for Heart and Vascular Surgery at Christiana Care Health System

"Delaware Attorney General Beau Biden was admitted this morning to Christiana Hospital in Newark, Delaware after having what we believe to be a mild stroke.  He is in good spirits and talking with his family at the hospital.  He is fully alert, in stable condition and has full motor and speech skills.  We expect him to make a complete recovery."

Please join me in praying for him.
