The "Philadelphia Inquirer" confirmed his hospital stay, but his family will not say anything else about his illness or how serious it is. Specter is 82-years old. In 2005, he announced he had Hodgkin's disease. He underwent chemotherapy but the cancer returned and he was treated again in 2008. Specter left the U.S. Senate as a Democrat in 2011, but was a Republican from 1965 until he switched parties in 2009. He lost his bid for re-election in Pennsylvannia in 2010.
