One of the nation's most out-spoken advocates for health care reform brought her message to Raleigh on Saturday.
Elizabeth Edwards says Americans are suffering because of a broken system,
Edwards spoke at Campbell Law School, telling the crowd there that people who are sick should be able to get treatment.
She also went on to blame insurance companies who have high administrative costs and exclude pre-existing conditions.
She says that her battle with cancer now puts her in the pre-existing condition category but that she is doing better than expected.
"I am. I'm doing very well, just went to the doctor this week and things, ah, look good. So all those doomsayers from two and half years ago, I hope that they're going to have to erase some of the words that they wrote," Edwards said.
Edwards says she is confident that lawmakers will pass some sort of health care reform.
She just wants it to give good coverage to everyone.
