| Summary: | This article addresses the therapeutic efficacy of understanding the unique relationship between the Gospel of Jesus Christ and Self Psychology as it relates to terminal illness.

My case study focuses on my patient (Joe), a 62-year-old man diagnosed with late stage prostate cancer in the fourth year of his treatment with me. |
