Health Corner on Lifetime TV

Be sure to tune into (or record) Health Corner on Lifetime this Sunday, March 7th, at 9:30am Eastern/8:30am Central.

 

Among the stories on this week's show:

 

Health Corner correspondent Julie Feldman with the story of a young family changed forever by cancer.  It's a story of emotion and hope for the future as researchers at Johns Hopkins explore what causes lung cancer in "never smokers" and why it needs to be treated differently than lung cancer caused by smoking.
