God bless you, Mary Elizabeth Anania Edwards.
Before everyone goes into panic mode, let's keep in mind that Mrs Edwards has been getting top notch care and has been a big advocate of frequent check ups based on her earlier successes in frighting cancer. So if what they tell us tomorrow is that they've gotten bad news from their oncologist, it will be bad news that has been caught in the very earliest stages possible for catching it. By far the most likely diagnosis should be that they caught it exactly when they needed to catch it in order to have a successful return match for an enemy they've already beaten once.

3. I refuse to listen to the thoughts swirling in my head and I will only send
peace, love and good thoughts their way. Please let her be okay.

7. I also am sending every postivie thought, prayer, beams of light, and
anything else that I can think of to a wonderful person. I've been at work and just got home and found out about this situation. I'm not "religious" but am spiritual and believe in the power of prayer/meditation - whatever you want to call it.

If there is an issue, I hope she meets with some healers (like Terri Cole Whittaker) who have had serious health problems and have been healed.

4. I'm praying for you Elizabeth, but if the news was good, no one would
Edited on Thu Mar-22-07 01:55 AM by napi21
have even heard about the Dr. visit. I'm not a pesimist. I'm a realist, and all I can say is Iwish you and John well, and we'll all be praying for you both.

14. I Wonder If The Fertility Treatments She Had Has Anything to do With Her Cancers
Edited on Thu Mar-22-07 04:36 AM by REP
She had them twice; once for the child born in 1999 and for the one born in 2001. It takes repeated courses of hormones before a successful pregnancy and she did it twice; I wonder if there's a link between that and her unfortunate bouts with cancer.

18. If "catching it early" was the key,
a whole lot more women today would be alive.

Hate to be the wet blanket, but ask anyone who's seen it or seen anyone else with it, and it's not "when" you catch it...it's the pathology that makes all the difference.

19. Except Elizabeth Edwards herself has said catching it early was
key for her. It was key for my girlfriend's mom. 20 years cancer free, thanks to early detection.

My father just successfully battled kidney cancer. His doctor, tops in the field of urologic oncology, also said catching it early made the difference.

27. I am sure we all know women
who have fought it for many years. It rears its ugly head, we knock it back.

I wish her strength, love, and the fortitude to fight back one more time.

Thank you for the positive tone of your post.
