Elizabeth Edwards' Cancer Has Not Spread
1 hour, 55 minutes ago U.S. National - AP

WASHINGTON - A biopsy has shown that a lump in Elizabeth Edwards' breast has not spread, a family spokesman said, as the wife of former Democratic vice presidential candidate John Edwards (news - web sites) commenced chemotherapy.

After a 16-week chemotherapy course, Edwards will take a four- to six-week break. Georgetown University Medical Center doctors who are treating Edwards will then surgically remove the lump.

13. I don't want to be a downer but
this is "preliminary" information. The best way to determine cancer spread is a more detailed lymph node analysis, which will be done during the surgery to remove the breast lump.

Yes, it's a good news, and let's hope it's confirmed a few weeks from now after surgery.
