Foreman, while wearing House's name tag, sees a woman called Cecilia Carter who has discovered a lump in her breast and she assumes she has breast cancer and will die soon like her cousin did.

    I just watched this epidode as a rerun on USA. In the closing scene, when Dr. Charlesis leaving the hospital, there's a song playing that sounds like Leon Russell. Anyone know for sure?
