Not so long ago, most people thought of cancer as a terminal illness, and that it was simply a matter of time before the patient died. In modern times, many cancer patients survive and the outlook is hopeful as new ways of fighting the disease are discovered. Loni Anderson is the host of A Harvest of Hope: Surviving Cancer, and Dr. Donnall Thomas, Nobel Prize-winning researcher, appears on the program. He talks about how to minimize the chances of getting cancer, and how early detection, along with a proper diet, avoidance of tobacco, and limiting time spent in the sun will help in the war against this killer. ~ Alice Day, Rovi
