Hebbie Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 I still can't believe it, but I am going to be interviewed by CBS (Channel 3 in Philadelphia) on Tuesday morning at my house. I'm not sure yet when it is going to run, but I will keep you all posted. They were apparently looking to do a story on a "young, non-smoking female w/ lung cancer".....as luck would have it , I fit the bill, and my doctor referred them to me. I am nervous beyond belief, but feel honored to have the chance to spread awareness and educate the masses about lung cancer. Wish me luck! Quote

Hebbie Posted November 10, 2005 Author Posted November 10, 2005 Just found out that my TV interview will be airing on Channel 3 (Philadelphia) on Monday, Nov. 14th at 11:00 p.m. They told me it is going to focus on the "senstive issues" (i.e. my nodules and unknown cancer status) so I might not want to have my son present. No kidding... Those in the area -- don't forget to tune in! Quote
Andrea Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 Heather you remain an inspiration! Kasey--she posted her results in a post in General titled "Hebbie", posted by Connie. You can look for it in General, I think it is on the second page now. Quote
daggiesmom Posted November 11, 2005 Posted November 11, 2005 Wonderful news. Give them all you've got! Educate them about non-smokers having this. We expect an "emmy award" performance from you, which I KNOW you can do. Let us know how it goes - go easy on the makeup!!!!!!!! Joanie Quote
Kaffie Posted November 11, 2005 Posted November 11, 2005 I am amazed at the amount of attention this group of wonderful people is getting for our cause Good luck and thanks for agreeing to do it Kathy Quote
Maryanne Posted November 11, 2005 Posted November 11, 2005 I printed out your message and put it on my frig so I don't forget. I also know they are honoring you at the 76ers game also. When it that? Maryanne Quote
Fay A. Posted November 11, 2005 Posted November 11, 2005 I hope that CBS takes this beyond local broadcasts. If the story is compelling they sometimes do so. And Heather, I think your story is compelling. Quote

It's good to know so many people will get to know your smiling face and great spirit, Heather. Hope you get lots of positive response to the piece. Leslie Quote
dchurchi Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 I know you will do great and I am proud of your local station wanting to let others know that smokers are NOT the only people inflicted with this terrible disease. As I am on the opposite coast I am hoping an transcript will be avaliable. Good luck on your interview Debbie Husband Alan DX small cell lung cancer Jan 10th 2005 Quote
