I don't have much time today, and I want to write more, but for now, I
just want to say that I used to not believe this.  I know James and
Denise believe it, but I used to not, and there is a part of me that is
still a doubting Thomas, but I have to open my mind to this possibility.
 It is easy for me to believe that a positive attitude keeps one
healthy, so it should not be that much of a jump to think that a walled
up, defensive, negative, state of mind would also prevent disease.    It
is just kind of hard to think about and believe 100%, despite anecdotal
evidence.  I suppose the fact that I call the evidence anecdotal is
indicative of my doubting nature...lol..
I'm talking about serious, life threatening, long term disease like
cardiovascular and cancer, not just things like colds and flu(and yeah,
I know that flu kills).
