Episode Synopsis

Send us a textLinda Wade and her brother, William, were fortunate enough to grow up in Turner Station, a community in the shadow of the Bethlehem Steel plant in Sparrows Point, Baltimore County. I say fortunate because residents of Sparrows Point and Turner Station had the highest per capita income in the country during the war years into the 1970s. It should be noted that Linda and William's father, Dr. William Wade, Sr., who referred Mrs. Henrietta Lacks, a Turner Station resident and considered the mother of modern biomedical research because of her immortal cell line, to Johns Hopkins Hospital for treatment of her cervical cancer. Make every moment count!
