There is one more example for you.One of my friends was leukemia.Her parents and relatives were so sorry for her and her situation gave them pain.However,she never was hopeless.On the contrary to this,she was determined to overcome her ailment.She was full of pozitive emotions towards life.Finally medical treatment and her perspective of life paid off.She fortunately recovered.I must say that even in those dark times,she always smiled because she knew that if she thinks negatively,negative changes will increase in her body.
To sum up,there are many people who overcame their illnesses by looking to world pozitively like Norman Cousins and my friend.Two examples show that besides medical treatment,we should do something different to overcome our ailments.Laughing,loving people and everything,looking to life in a pozitive way are some of them.Maybe,we can cure ourselves…
