Description
An inspirational retreat designed to encourage people to understand and fight cancer. In the park are life-size sculptures leading to a tower of light
First is a sculpture as a focal point. Created by the renowned Mexican sculptor, Victor Salmones, it is eight life-size figures passing through a maze depicting cancer treatments and success. It is placed in the most visible point in the park for passers-by because it needs no explanation. People can walk among the figures, touch them, walk through the maze and generally visualize themselves being helped. It is moving.
The second element in the park is a “Positive Mental Attitude Walk”. This is an area that a person can stroll through, meditate and read some 14 plaques; 4 are inspirational and 10 are specific suggestions on fighting cancer.
The third element is The Road to Recovery. This consists of 7 bronze plaques with common sense advice to use during treatment.
