Knowing a bit about letters to courts and medical conditions. This is a far cry from saying he is dying of anything. He has a heart condition, requires surgery, best not to put it off. Serious for anyone but not that he is in an icu or in great danger of death.

Weird. I thought if Obama was elected that all the sick would be healed and disease would be a thing of the past.

Anyway, I hope he gets better soon. At least, I hope he gets well enough to stand trial.

When I had my serious heart condition, I was told to report to the hospital immediately. It was extremely serious!

...Edwards is scheduled to undergo surgery next month.

Life-threatening but apparently not an emergency.

Given his history of pillaging medical malpractice (cough cough) I can’t imagine any doctor taking the risk of treating him.
