May 7, 2018


You know her as a journalist and as a charming and funny TV co-host. He is the respected former CBS News producer and New York Times bestselling author. But did you know that for 40 years, they have been living with multiple sclerosis?

Richard Cohen struggles with failing limbs and is legally blind. He has survived two bouts of cancer and a life-threatening blood clot in his lungs. But now, a flicker of hope has emerged in a groundbreaking medical procedure. Join him as he discusses his new book, Chasing Hope, the account of his exploration into the cutting-edge world of stem cell research and the doctors, scientists, religious leaders and patents who live, as he does, with the possibility of hope.
