Tonight's Dateline will feature Tom Brokaw talking about his battle with cancer. The special is based at the Mayo Clinic where Brokaw received treatment for multiple myeloma. Myeloma is a cancer that affects blood cells in the bone marrow. An article posted by E Online explains that he has tried to remain as positive as possible. Brokaw is quoted as saying, "It never occurred to me that I was going to die. I'm gonna beat this. No question."

"Tom Brokaw: A Lucky Life Interrupted" airs on Dateline tonight at 9 p.m. on NBC.
