As medical director of the Preventive Medicine Research Institute, Lee Lipsenthal helped thousands struggling with disease to overcome their fears of pain and death and to embrace a joyful way of living. The power of those beliefs was tested in July 2009, when Lee was diagnosed with esophageal cancer. As Lee and his wife, Kathy, navigated his illness and treatment, he discovered that he did not fear death, and that even as he was facing his own mortality, he felt more alive than ever before.
