Thanks for the moving tribute, Thinking Person. Dr. Simonton changed so much. He will be missed, and remembered.

This man's work save my life and changed me forever. No matter what the disease (mine was not cancer), his principles and examples can apply to anyone. My return to health was in the late 70s when these ideas were still considered "new age" and therefore suspect to the then mainstream medical world.

Blessed are the pioneers!

My deepest sympathy to his family, staff, friends and patients.
