Faith and illness

My first try at cross posting:

Here is my thread I made in the "health" section, I do need ideas on states of mind and beliefs as well, so I will try to put it here too.

Any thoughts appreciated! Esp about the 'mind/body' connection.

It is for my friend, thanks in advance!

If you do not have the disire to fight illness, you surely will not be able too. I do think that the mind definitely plays a large role in the healing process. There are many reasons for that. If you have a positive outlook, you are more likely to be somewhat active, and less depressed. You are more likely to seek treatment, and more likely you won't be laying around in a miserable ball.

I am sure more goes into it, but, never forget the role of the doctors who are out there to help you. Have faith in them.
