Elizabeth Edwards, Powerful Force Behind Husband’s Political Career, Loses Battle With Cancer

Elizabeth Edwards, who played a pivotal role in her husband’s political career and captured the public’s sympathy with her lengthy battle with breast cancer and her estrangement from John Edwards over his highly publicized affair, died Tuesday, Fox News has confirmed. She was 61.

Edwards stopped receiving treatment this month when doctors told her it would be unproductive.

Watching someone die of such a devastating disease has got to be the most difficult any person could ever do.  And my prayers are with her children.  I won’t say I agreed with Elizabeth Edwards stand on a great many things, but I do know a strong woman when I see one, and, in my opinion, she was a strong woman. Personally, I would have ripped somebody’s lips off, but that’s just me.

Rest in peace!

    What a wretched, horrible disease breast cancer is.  May God rest her soul.

    I can so relate to her battle, such a shame she had to endure her husband in the last years of her life. RIP.
