After forty-three years in the sacred space of caring for
patients, Dr. Donovan shares his observations and thoughts about
illness and healing. He believes illness serves us by acting as
life's transformative process. As such, the journey through our
illness may be precisely the very experiential journey we need to
realize our healing and ourselves more fully. After all, we don't
"get" cancer. Cancer, like any illness, is a process. We "are" the
cancer we manifest. Our cancer arises out of our own tissues and
cellular make up. To rid our self of our cancer is to rid our self
of a part of our self. Instead of thinking about illness as
something we "get," something separate from ourselves needing to be
removed or defeated, Dr. Donovan thinks we might well do better
viewing our illness as a transformational journey that must be
undertaken and completed for our healing to emerge. We can't get
rid of our selves but we can transform ourselves and our illness
provides us with that opportunity. It allows us our healing.
