Meghan McCain on Father's Health: He Is 'Doing Good'

Sen. John McCain is "doing good" as he continues physical therapy in Arizona, daughter Meghan McCain told "The View" on Tuesday.

The 81-year-old Arizona Republican — undergoing treatment for brain cancer — is back in Arizona for physical therapy after being hospitalized last month for effects of the treatment and an infection, the Arizona Republic reported.

"I just got off the phone with my father: 'Do your physical therapy,'" McCain said she told her dad, the news outlet reported. "We were on the phone. He's with his physical therapist right now. They're still in Sedona."

In first live broadcast since the holidays, @MeghanMcCain says on ABC's @TheView that she just got off the phone with @SenJohnMcCain, who was getting physical therapy. "He's doing good," she said.

She said the holidays were "mellow" with family at the McCain cabin in Cornville, near Sedona.

"We had a good time just cooking and hanging out," she said.

McCain's office has not issued an official update on McCain's health for more than two weeks. A Dec. 17 statement said McCain was looking forward to returning to the Senate in January.

"Senator McCain is in rehab. He's coming back in January, [and] we need his voice now more than ever," his close friend Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said on CBS News' "Face the Nation" on Christmas.
