I don't like John Edwards. I have lost 3 members of my family to cancer, my sister just last year. From the time we found out she was stage 4 to her death was only 6 weeks. My mom had 9 months, my dad was the lucky one, he had 4 years. My point is that Elizabeth has stage 4 cancer with a survival rate of 26% making it to the magic 5 year mark. I would tell John Edwards and Elizabeth that while it is true that the living must keep on living, I do think they should look hard at his chances for winning anything during his run for 2008, if he is not a front runner then drop out now and devote what time there is left to the family. Don't care how much one "prepares" for what will come, it is very hard to come to terms with the ending of a loved ones life and even harder when there are children involved. Her cancer is not curable, only treatable, a fancy way of saying we will make you as comfortable as we can for whatever time you have left. IMHO no presidential race is worth this.
