In 2005, Dr. William Penzer, a psychologist for more than 40 years, found himself falling on his emotional face when his 31 year old daughter was diagnosed with breast cancer. Despite having helped thousands of people navigate the choppy and challenging demands of life, he was drowning in a sea of his own emotions.
Like a traveler in a foreign land, which Penzer called Cancerville, this seasoned psychologist eventually discovered how to cope better when dealing with cancer. Penzer concluded that cancer is not only a dreaded diagnosis, but a place one enters as well with its own culture, customs, language, confusions.
