John Edwards has life threatening heart condition

Read Time:32 Second

(AP) A federal judge says she has two letters from a cardiologist saying ex-presidential candidate John Edwards has a life-threatening condition that will require surgery in February.

The letters were revealed during a hearing Friday to consider whether the ex-North Carolina Senator would go on trial later this month for alleged campaign finance violations.

Attorneys for Edwards were seeking a 60-day delay to allow time for Edwards to recover. The judge delayed the trial to March 26.

Edwards was in court at the judge’s request, although doctors advised him to avoid travel and all court proceedings.

So life threatening he has to wait till February??? Can’t be that much of a life ender if he can wait for treatment now, can it. Good thing he isn’t the regular guy going to court, that wouldn’t get this same treatment but one of the very important people in the world. I am about sick of there being two justice systems.
