MD Anderson special on CNN this Sunday

I have no idea what this will be like, and did not participate in any of the interviews (I am always too eager to leave the hospital the second I am done with whatever I am doing there!). But it might interest readers of this blog...

CNN Presents to air "Taming the Beast: Inside the War on Cancer" Sunday, Aug. 14
On Sunday, Aug. 14 at 7 p.m. CST, with an encore presentation at 10 p.m. CST, CNN Presents will premiere a one-hour documentary about cancer. Filmed exclusively at M. D. Anderson and hosted by CNN's medical correspondent, Dr. Sanjay Gupta, "Taming the Beast: Inside the War on Cancer" is an in-depth look at the state of cancer today. The program provides a deeply personal glimpse into the lives of five M. D. Anderson patients - revealing their daily struggles and exploring the revolutionary science helping them. As part of its filming, CNN designed a special recording room to allow everyone - faculty, nurses, clergy, staff, patients, caregivers, volunteers - to share their thoughts and feelings about cancer. Excerpts from the recording room will be included in the show. Additional recordings will be included on CNN's Web site, ! http://www.cnn.com/CNN/Programs/presents/, starting Aug. 10.

M. D. Anderson will not be able to provide copies of the program due to copyright laws. To purchase a copy of the program, call 1-800-CNN-NEWS.

Please note that M, D. Anderson does not schedule CNN programs; the documentary could be rescheduled in the event of breaking news.
