Elizabeth Edwards Views End of Life with Optimism

Dec. 7, 2010 - PRLog -- What could be a more devastating and difficult circumstance to have to face than the impending end of your life?

Elizabeth Edwards has been fighting a battle with cancer for six years.  She has now been told there is no further medical treatment that can be of help.  She has learned the end of her life is expected within a few weeks or at most several months.

Elizabeth Edwards teaches us in the quote below that the end of life can be faced with optimism and dignity.  This quote stands on its own, needs no further explanation, and in its simplicity and essence embodies the core meaning of “Moment-to-Moment Optimism.”

   * "The days of our lives, for all of us, are numbered," Edwards wrote. "We know that. And yes, there are certainly times when we aren't able to muster as much strength and patience as we would like. It's called being human. But I have found that in the simple act of living with hope, and in the daily effort to have a positive impact in the world, the days I do have are made all the more meaningful and precious. And for that I am grateful."~ Elizabeth Edwards {Nedra Pickler, Associated Press – Tuesday, Dec 7, 2010}
