Breaking news:Elizabeth Edwards dead at 61

Publication: Christian Science Monitor
Date: 7 December 2010

Yesterday, the news was that Elizabeth Edwards had suspended cancer treatments because the disease had spread so far. Today, the report is that she died.

Of all the death predictions in the gossip magazines this year, the ones that were also sourced in the legitimate press were the illnesses of Dennis Hopper and Elizabeth Edwards, both of whom are now gone. I really hoped there would be good news for her, but the prognosis was grim and even People magazine gave her a cover story where she said "I wish I had more time." This is the only story from People this year that added to the death watch list.

Best wishes to the family and friends of Elizabeth Edwards, from an admirer.
