Please help cover his crushing medical and recovery expenses following his pneumonia, congestive heart failure, and hemothorax that began in Germany. He has been in hospitals and rehabilitation facilities since October 20th. Happily, Al is now firmly on the road to a full recovery at Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital in Boston's North End.

However, because he was too ill to complete his Fall European teaching and workshop tour he lost a significant portion of his annual income which is all he has to rely on. Thus, the combination of the medical bills he faces and loss of income needed to cover basic living costs makes this a painfully challenging time. Anything you can offer to help him get back on his feet and back to a happy and productive life would be immensely useful.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity!

PS: If you would prefer to send a check, please make it out to Albert Pesso and send it c/o Tana Pesso, 51 Main St., Rockport, MA 01966.

  • I will always remember Diane's bright spirit, amazing creativity and warm, welcoming nature from my summers at Strolling Woods. Our NJ PBSP training group was fortunate enough to have her come down and give us a training - each of us did such beautifully expressive work - healing, artistic, uniquely individual to each of us led by Diane. My heartfelt sympathy to Al who has given me so very much over the years. His teaching and guidance has been invaluable in my career as a PBSP therapist and as a person. I look forward to his writing and new ventures and wish him the best always - much love, light, good memories, health and happiness. Much love, Debbi Antinori
