To see a World in a Grain of Sand

And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,

Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand

And Eternity in an hour.
- William Blake

At this summer's TT Dialogues, Shelley Mackey shared a memory of Dr. Otelia Bengtsson, a friend of TT co-founder Dora Kunz, who worked at Roosevelt Hospital in New York. While they sat beneath the apple tree at Pumpkin Hollow, Dr. Bengtsson shared how Dora would spend time with patients receiving methotrexate for cancer in the 1950s.


Thank you to Shelley for sharing this story and photo! 

As a reminder,
here is a link to 39 video stories shared by TTers on how they came to TT and how it has shaped their lives. Thank you to Megan Palmer for editing and posting these on TTIA's YouTube channel for the 2022 TTIA Congress! 

We would love to continue adding stories of how people came to TT and how it has enriched their lives. If this resonates, please share your TT story in writing or a video recording and send to
ttia@therapeutictouch.org. 

Thanks for bringing TT forward to those who are looking for it!
