UPDATED: PWInsider reports that Kamala underwent surgery on Sunday due to complications from diabetes, such as fluid in his lungs. Things were looking very bad for him yesterday, but he did show some improvement over the course of today, opened his eyes, and was more alert. He remains heavily medicated and on a ventilator. The hope at this point is that they can take him off medications, he will get more responsive, and then they can try to work him off the ventilator.
