The news about Phil Mickelson's wife being diagnosed with breast cancer is sad. It is something that many people have to deal with in their own families. As Tiger Woods press release said, our thoughts and prayers are with them. Phil immediately suspended his golf schedule to be with his wife and family, and help her through the difficult treatment.
This is the appropriate response from a loving husband and strong family man. While I am a huge Tiger fan, I have always had respect for Phil Mickelson. This strongly reaffirms that respect. It makes you feel empathy for him and his family.
Contrast this to the response of John Edwards when his wife found out that her breast cancer progressed. Not only did he vow to spend more time on the road campaigning even harder to advance his personal goals, he also used the cancer as a political tool to try and gain sympathy votes. But that is not the best part. He also decided to have an affair with a younger woman, who has since had a baby (with no father listed on the birth certificate).
