I just saw this on tv. So sad, so very sad. She was certainly a courageous sister in pink that had a lot of battles to fight. But, she lost this won.

She is an angel now with God and will watch over her family.

Praying for her family...

I've been in a car all day and hadn't heard this until a few moments ago. So sad.

ABC's Nightline bc stats
WHAT did I just hear from an interview with Elizabeth Edwards from an ABC reporter? "Breast cancer statistics are that 5 years out - only a 20% survival rate."

I'm new to this, IS THIS TRUE??? Someone please tell me it's not. I realize we are all in different situations, different bodies, different stages. Where would this statistic come from and SH-T!!!

I'm having a very emotional few days, luckily, I have appt. with my onc. on Thursday. So, I have my notebook and questions ready this time. Our first meeting, I was the deer in the headlights and he asked me if I had any questions and I said "no". I was frozen. All of this reoccurence business is really haunting me. Where do we go for the REAL stats and would that be a mistake to "know"? man...

I don't think so...
Look around and see how many we all know that are way past that! 5 times past that! Don't listen to garbage. You can do this and we can too. There's too many positives for this to be a negative! Xoxoxo

I was upstairs resting in bed - last night when a
newscaster .. briefly broke in during a commerical break - and stated that Elizabeth had died .. I quickly turned to my husband, Pete and said .. 'We have lost another sister', this time a very public face .. ohhhh how my heart aches for her 3 children.

I went back and re-watched the interview and the reporter DID quote that stat. However, Elizabeth quickly and gracefully corrected the misinformation!
