Dean Hall Is A Cancer Survivor Who's Swimming In Miracles

Dean Hall is the first person in history to swim the entire 184 miles of Oregon's Willamette River. He accomplished this feat in June of 2014 while he still had active leukemia and lymphoma to prove to cancer patients around the world that you don't have to give up your dreams or your drive simply because you received a diagnosis. Now, cancer-free he continues to go to great lengths to raise money for cancer research and spread his inspirational message of healing and hope around the world.

During our interview we discussed:

  • How cancer played a significant part of his life before his diagnosis.
  • The meaning of Swimming in Miracles and how water has played a significant role in his physical and emotional healing.
  • How a quote from Albert Einstein helped him chart a new course with his life.
  • The role faith has played in his life.

Lee & Linda Silverstein

In 2011, just four months after they began dating, Lee was diagnosed with Stage 2 colon cancer. A year and a half later, 17 days after their honeymoon, they learned that Lee’s cancer had spread to his liver; he was now Stage 4. Through numerous surgeries, chemotherapy infusions and assorted other treatments, Linda has been by his side. Despite cancer, Lee and Linda say unequivocally these have been the best years of their lives.

In 2015 Lee launched this podcast as a way to provide information, inspiration and hope to those affected by cancer.

Lee and Linda live in Florida with their Westie Terrier, Fergie.
