Betty Rollin is a former news correspondent for NBC's Nightly News. She was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1975 and again in 1984. Each time, she underwent a mastectomy as part of the treatment. In 1983 her mother became terminally ill with ovarian cancer. Betty's mother requested help in dying. From the results of research, Betty contacted a physician in Europe to get the correct medications to help her do so. Betty is also a best selling author of two books of her life experiences, First, You Cry about her breast cancer and Last Wish the story of her mother's request.
