Thank you for the new forum. Hopefully it will be all we hope it will be.
I just this minute read an article in U.S.News & World Report about Lance Armstrong.

The author Bernadine Healy M.D. said the following (without any typos, those are mine)

"Our minds can't cure cancer, but the right attitude improves the odds. Indeed, that idea is the foundation of an emerging field, called psycho-oncology, which offers cancer patients treatments such as talk therapy, social support groups, and relaxation exercises like yoga and guided imagery. This is not new age gobbledygook. Depression takes a toll on the immune system, especially on the natural-killer (NK)white blood cells that help fight off cancer invaders."

Interesting thoughts.
