It would be wrong to think that those who have had recurrences on this board did so because they weren't positive enough or strong enough. There is a difference between having a positive life outlook (and benefiting from better mood; seeing humor in things, etc.) and thinking that one's attitude always translates into good outcomes.


Thanks for posting the article, Charm. I love your sarcastic humor that has at its core tremendous intellect, wit and compassion.
