Elizabeth Edwards, attorney, best selling author, health care activist, and the wife of famous politician, John Edwards, died yesterday after a long battle with breast cancer. In 2007, she was trying very hard to battle it, and just a couple of days ago, the family announced to the public that she herself had stopped treatment, and revealed to the public that she wanted to pass on. Sadly, she posted an emotional goodbye message on her facebook page. She passed away at her home in Chapel Hill, surrounded by friends and family. She was 61 years old.
