IIRC it was only yesterday or the day before that the news channels were reporting he had decided not to undergo any further medical treatment so I can only presume he knew the end was near.

I knew about his medical condition and age but this was still shocking news for me. Senator McCain was one of very few politicians I truly respected.
R.I.P. Sir. ~SALUTE~

I may lean left, and he may have been on the right, but he was one of the good guys. He will be missed.
