Prescriptions for Living and the Art of Healing

Bernie Siegel, MD will be the featured speaker at the 3rd Annual Nurse Education Alumni Event. Dr. Siegel founded Exceptional Cancer Patients (ECaP) in 1978. He is one of the world's foremost physicians, authors, motivational speakers and advocates for individuals facing the challenges of all chronic illnesses.

The presentation is recommended not only for those who have already confronted their mortality and life’s inevitable difficulties but also for their families and loved ones, as well as, those who want to learn about surviving life’s difficulties through the experience of others and not their own pain. It is aimed at providing those who attend with the wisdom derived from the experience of the teachers of the past so they can have a happier future.
Motivational, inspirational and down-to-earth, Bernie's approach is one of compassion, caring and love coupled with a wonderful sense of humor. His message of hope and love is extended to all who seek a whole person approach for living life fully each day.
