Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) died Saturday, a little over a year after he'd been diagnosed with glioblastoma, a wildly aggressive form of brain cancer. Advocates have been frustrated for years about the lack of research about and progress being made against the disease. Meanwhile, though health care policy was not a primary focus for McCain, he's remembered for casting the vote that saved the health law he hated.
