It appears that she is stopping her treatment, as doctors are saying that there is no benefit from proceeding further with it. <\/p>\n<p>I really feel for her. Elizabeth Edwards has been through so much. In spite of all the life challenges that came her way she has persevered. <\/p>\n<p>The cancer she has fought for over six years is a struggle for life itself. All the many chemotherapies and radiation treatments couldn&#8217;t stop her. She was determined to live and do something for the world. <\/p>\n<p>Through the fatal auto accident of her teenage son, she kept going and had two more children at age 49 and 50. That was resilience if I&#8217;ve ever seen it. <\/p>\n<p>Then with all the demands of campaigning for her husband, John Edwards, running for vice president and then a presidential bid. <\/p>\n<p>And then the ultimate betrayal, his infidelity and getting his mistress pregnant. All the lies and hurt associated with that mess. <\/p>\n<p>She is an amazing woman with great determination and deduction to good. Her book, &#8220;Resilience,&#8221; is perfectly titled. She is the definition of resilient. <\/p>\n<p>May God continue to bless her and save her, giving her that power, grace and salvation she has so thoroughly earned. <\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<br \/>UPDATE: I&#8217;ve just heard that news that Elizabeth Edwards has fallen asleep in the Lord, as of Tuesday, Dec. 7.
