Art & The American Cancer Society, #94

Growth is normally considered a good thing. Gardens, plants, babies, even mutual funds  grow, and when they do, we benefit. But there is another kind of growth as well. Cancer cells grow, and when they do, it causes destruction of the body, sometimes even of the self. Yet while cancer can lead to destruction—even, in the worst cases, death—it can also result in more growth. Cancer patients may find themselves stronger and more resilient than they ever thought possible. They may finally tap into creative potential that had remained dormant until becoming necessary for their healing. In its own way, even this terrible destruction can lead to new life. Join the Dr. Lisa Radio Hour this Sunday for our show "Art & The American Cancer Society."
