I came across this quote by Lawrence LeShan, Ph.D.    I remember reading his book “You Can Fight for Your Life”  when I was in graduate school in 1977.   I met him at a conference years later and thanked him as this book really changed my life.   Then in 2007,  I got cancer.  Who knew….

I still have my copy of the book.  I have copies of other books by LeShan.   He’s been a profound voice for me and the field of psychology.   Thanks again to Lawrence LeShan.

“I have never worked with anyone where positive change and growth, change that would make a critical difference in the individual’s life, was impossible.”

Lawrence LeShan,  ”Cancer as a Turning Point”
