Elizabeth Edwards

Elizabeth Edwards was diagnosed with cancer yesterday - on a day when her husband and John Kerry were conceeding the Presidential race. Wow - talk about a double whammy. This is really sad. From what I’ve read, her type of cancer is non-fatal with early treatment - however, that generally involved chemo/radiation or, at worst, surgical treatment. Apparently, she found the lump a week, or so, ago - but put off diagnosis until the race was over. This had to have been more than hard for her, and her family.

I wish the best to her, and her family, as they start the process of dealing with this new diagnosis. I just couldn’t imagine it - - and I think it’s time to schedule my annual mammogram, as much as I HATE that whole thing!

    yes, of course Fred. It’s the famous ones that bring national attention to it, however.
