Instead, Dr. Northrup teaches women how to stop fearing their breasts and put their lives back into balance.

Since serving as President Jimmy Carter's chief of staff in the late 1970s, Hamilton Jordan has survived three forms of cancer: non-Hodgkins lymphoma, melanoma, and prostate cancer. In this remarkable memoir, Jordan recounts his tumultuous adventures in the political arena and his successful journeys through the world of modern cancer treatment. Jordan's political anecdotes are fascinating and insightful, but it is when he talks of his cancers that Jordan achieves his real impact. For this is not a story about medical miracles. It's about how a patient defeats cancer by taking charge of his own treatment and becoming a well-informed, positive-thinking partner in his cure. For cancer sufferers, their loved ones, and their caregivers, No Such Thing as a Bad Day is practical, inspirational, and indispensable.

In November 1995, National Public Radio health science correspondent Rebecca Perl was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. She learned she had a tumor in her chest, six months after giving birth to a baby boy.

In this award-winning documentary, Perl reports on her own thoughts and experiences as she faces the biggest battle of her life.

Murrow Award; National Federation of Community Broadcasters Award; Silver Hugo Award; New York Festival World Medal for Health and Medical Information Award. Originally broadcast in 1998.
