I too feel bad for her family and friends. I also feel bad for her husband. Regardless of what transpired later in their marriage, there was love there once and for all we know they could have made peace with each other. At the end of the day he has to live with himself and be both mother and father to their children. |

They had her story on Good Morning America this morning. I am saddened to hear she passed shortly after that.
May she rest in peace

She was truly an amazing woman. Unfortunately, lots of spouses cheat on their ailing mates. It is a sad reality that for her was so public. I find her strength and her ability to actually LEAVE him amazing, so many political wives are bullied into staying. She was truly brave in many ways.

I liked her so much better than John. She and her family did a lot of charitable work. I hope provisions were made to continue that work.
May she rest in peace. |

I admired her for many reasons. She was so very down to Earth to Me.. whether she was speaking of her marriage ending.. or the battle she fought against the cancer that overtook her.. or her family and friends that she loved fiercely... or the causes she championed and poured her heart into... she was a true lady.
I agree with Gemme, I hope they have made provisions to keep her charitable work alive. May she now find comfort and solace.

She fought a brave and valiant fight but once cancer gets into your bones it's a hard thing to fight off. May she rest in peace.

A life filled with personal struggles and challenges yet a class act to the end. I was saddened yesterday to hear the end was near for her and my prayers go out to her loved ones.

Elizabeth Edwards endured what I consider the most difficult thing in life and that is the death of your child. She took her greiving and healing process into a venue many nary to venture. She wrote a book to share the depth of pain that had been brought to them. She then lost her valiant battle with cancer. She had lost her husband to another woman. This was a woman of true resilience (also the title of her book). Only she, John and God know if they reached a peaceful, final parting. Learning of her grace and dignity in the face of gloom my guess is that she left this earth as a serene and peaceful soul. I imagine she died like she lived.
Rest in peace, Elizabeth. Your voice shall be missed. |

Elizabeth Edwards was a very admirable women. Since she was not going to get better, I am glad she was called out to begin a fresh, new journey. That type of illness gets rough towards the end. I have seen it several times up close and personal. I cannot stand it when people suffer that way.
 for Elizabeth EdwardsElizabeth Edwards, you left a positive impression on this world. for your loved ones ...

From NPR
The Fire And Wisdom Of Elizabeth Edwards by Scott Simon Elizabeth Edwards lost a son, lost her marriage, got sick, and got scalded in the bright, hot light of fame. But anyone who is a parent will understand: after the death of a child, all other hurts seem small. In 1996, strong winds overturned young Wade Edwards’ jeep on a North Carolina highway. He died at the age of 16. Nothing overturns your faith in God, fairness, goodness, or makes you ask why you should go on living, more than the death of a child. "I had to reconcile the God I thought I had with the facts I knew," Elizabeth Edwards said in recent months. "I couldn't pray anymore for God to intervene, which means I can't pray for him to intervene in my cancer. Instead, the God that I came to accept promises salvation and enlightenment, and that's the God I live with now. It's not entirely the God I want, but it is the God I believe I have." When her cancer returned in 2007, Elizabeth Edwards continued with her husband’s campaign for president. She said she couldn’t let sickness thwart her work for what she thought was right, including health care overhaul. She already knew death. Wade’s loss made her want to pack meaning and striving into whatever life she had left. She may have been hurt by her husband’s hound-dog ways, or those quickie campaign histories that tried to puncture her image with things she might have said when she was anxious and pained. But her heart had been wrung out already. Elizabeth Edwards shared a mutual admiration with Tony Snow, the conservative columnist who was President George W. Bush’s press secretary, and had colon cancer. When he died in 2008, Elizabeth Edwards said that, "although we came to nearly every argument from opposite corners of the ring . . .we each chose to reach for something larger than the life and body with which we were saddled . . . " For millions of Americans whose families live with cancer, Elizabeth Edwards demonstrated that people who bear disease still have life to cherish and give others, and maybe an extra jolt of fire and wisdom, too. When people ask author Christopher Hitchens, who has esophageal cancer, how he is these days, he says, "I’m dying. So are you. The process has just accelerated on me." And so, as Mr. Hitchens continues to write, speak, inspire and enrage, Elizabeth Edwards continued to speak out, embrace her family, and offer others the comfort of her courage and good sense. It’s apt to use a basketball term to remember someone who made her life in North Carolina: Elizabeth Edwards played the clock until the very last second. She was a ray of life. http://www.npr.org/2010/12/11/131986...zabeth-edwards |
