Kennedy won’t need a whole lot of luck on this surgery. He had the best neurosurgeon in the world.

I should know – Friedman did my brain surgery back in December.

and told his wife shortly after that he felt “like a million bucks,â€ a family spokeswoman said.

Which is telling, since before the surgery he felt like $43-162 million bucks.
