Oprah Interviews Elizabeth Edwards

Elizabeth Edwards discusses her cancer diagnosis.
At this time, Elizabeth says John's infidelity is not the children's biggest concern. In 2007, Elizabeth's cancer, which had been in remission, came back. Doctors told her it is incurable.

When she got this devastating diagnosis, Elizabeth says the first thing she did was cry. "[It's] sort of hard not to break down," she says. "Then, [we] said: 'We're going to keep going. We're going to keep pushing ahead.'"

Elizabeth is fighting the disease with chemotherapy and says she's not in pain. "I'm achy sometimes, but you know, I'm 60 this summer," she says. "I get to be achy sometimes with two little kids."
