Well, that may be true, but in this case, I don't think it matters what kind of cure the person is using or how fraudulent it is. If it helps the person beat cancer by believing in it, then good for that person.

I think it's sad that some people have handled their responses here in such an aggressive manner.

Maybe I'm wrong though. Maybe state of mind has nothing to do with getting over anything. Maybe every time someone gets better it can be attributed to something 'scientific'.

Maybe we should all just give up when faced with something that seems too hard.
