BELIEVE IN YOUR TREATMENT PROGRAM

Excited belief is one of the great intangibles in a successful cancer treatment program. It is a natural extension of your conviction about your integrated treatment decisions. And it is your personal responsibility to believe in, and even be excited about, your treatment program.

Cancer survivors develop a confidence and an excited belief in their treatment programs that other patients do not possess. I am convinced that a correlation exists between belief in one's treatment and its effectiveness. My observations of the importance of belief in cancer treatment leads me to respect the awesome power of the mind and the human spirit in the cancer journey.

You can observe excited and expectant belief in survivor after survivor. I fully realize my observations are only anecdotal evidence and cannot stand up to scientific scrutiny. But I do not believe this hypothesis is wrong: Cancer survival is a matter of involving both head and heart. I have seen beliefs and attitudes like May's and Colleen's make the difference in hundreds of cases. To me the correlation between belief in treatment and effectiveness of treatment is very high.

Someday the scientific and medical community will fully document the biological reality of this kind of,. In the meantime, I suggest you, learn from the survivors and develop an excited belief about your treatment.

An Important Thing You Can Do

"Own" your treatment program. See it as a friend. Believe it is there to help you. Excited belief is what you seek.
