CBS News Wed 3/28/07

CBS's Katie Couric is doing special two part on c treatments, etc. I know we probably know more than they will say but if you watch tonight they will be discussing funding and the cutback thereof for research.

This is due to Edwards' and Snow's recurrence.

Also the more people tune in, the ratings go up and its good that all this stuff is made known to all for our sake and future sisters.

XOXO

Hi Maria,

Thanks for the heads up on the CBS special on cancer. I watched both nights of it and it was very informative and very interesting.

So much attention is being focused on the disease now with Elizabeth Edward's recurrence and Tony Snow's recurrence AND that's a good thing.

God Blessings to you,

Mary Jo

I missed it cuz I had an FFA banquet Wednesday for my son and Thursday had gone to get my daughter and granddaughter from Kentucky so they can stay with me over spring break, Easter and granddaughter's first birthday party. So please give highlights of what I missed.
