Think positive? My fat arse.

That's Growler at the back!

Slight similarity i agree.

How on earth can 'thinking positive' stop you from catching a virus? After all, that virus doesn't care if you're an optimist or pessimist.

I'll p'raps put Mrs GROWLER on here tonight to explain her 'theory'?
I'm used to it U.M.
She talks utter shite all day long most of the time.

"She talks utter shite all day long most of the time.

Ah so that where you get it from .

No actually. Learnt most of it from YOU, in 'days gone by elsewhere'

There was a recent study on cancer sufferers that showed thinking positive made no difference to their survival rates.

On a serious note, and taking slight isssue with that comment U.M., it DID in fact seem to help that woman who recently died.....can't think of her name now...who had terminal cancer, and was only given months to live. She embarked on a 'stuff you cancer' campaign for several years, running marathons and other crazy stuff.
Name please anyone?

A truly gritty determined woman if ever there was one.

I agree. Our palliative care nurse reckoned that our house was the best place on his round for jollity and the like. He said that the houses of doom and gloom he only tended to visit for a week before he was no longer needed where as he was visiting us for just over a month. Also we had less need for morphine. So I think whilst it won't cure you it can certainly help.

[Nick]

It hasn't helped my 3 mates who have died of cancer in the last year (one only 42 and 2 my age )

[Bar Wench]

Like I said it won't cure you but it may buy you more time.

[Nick]

Time in which to................?

[Bar Wench]

Time in which to................?

Spend time with your family? Sort things out? Apologise? Make up? Pass on wisdom? Make your peace?

[GROWLER]

Time in which to................?

....do the things you want to do of course.
Stuff illness, it's an evil bastard and has to be treated as such.
You HAVE to fight it to the bitter end and show it no mercy with your determination.

The likelihood is that she would have survived the cancer for the same length of time whether she stayed home and bemoaned her lot or cycled up Everest.

A doctor wouldn't tell you that you only have x number of months to live, rather that with the type of cancer you have the 50% survival rate would be x months.
