Here is the correct information I posted about a few days ago. The book is definitely on my wish list.
When Henrietta Lacks was diagnosed with cancer in 1951, doctors took her cells and grew them in test tubes. Those cells led to breakthroughs in everything from Parkinson's to polio. But today, Henrietta is all but forgotten. In an excerpt from her book, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, Rebecca Skloot tells her story.
This woman's story is amazing, and one of the reasons I decided to participate in the clinical trials.
