Snow: 'Our prayers are with' Edwards
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- White House Press Secretary Tony Snow, himself a cancer survivor, said Thursday his "thoughts and prayers" were with Elizabeth Edwards, wife of Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards, following the news that her cancer had returned.

"As somebody's been through this -- Elizabeth Edwards is setting a powerful example for a lot of people," he said at the top of the White House daily press briefing. "And a good and positive one. She's been on top of diagnosis and follow up. When you have cancer, it is very important to keep checking. She's being aggressive. She's living an active life. And a positive attitude, prayers, and people you love are always a very good addition to any kind of medicine you have. (Watch video: Snow offers his prayers)
