CHANGE

Hmmm... I was talking with a friend yesterday about the Presidential race. She brought up a view point about John Edwards that I had never thought of... and since I have never lived through this, probably never would have thought of.

She was surprised and called Edwards the most selfish man... since his wife was diagnosed with cancer he has stayed in the race. I know that his wife said he needs to run and stay in the race, and since she said that I did not think anything of it. Steph brought new light to my eyes. She said it is the most selfish thing a spouse can do. What his wife is going through is horrific and she needs his support.

Now this may seem odd, but even with his wife saying to run, Edwards should have dropped out early to care for her. I don't understand it completely, but I have never experienced a spouse being that sick. Steph has. She stood by her husband during his battle with cancer and thank God he survived. So to hear this information from Steph is something I take in high regards.

I did think about his judgement being impaired by his wife's situation, but I never thought about it like this.

Just some food for thought...
