the movie "patch adams"

[ladycolorado]

Who has seen the movie "Patch Adams" with Robin Williams? It is based on a true story about a doctor, Hunter "patch" Adams who fights the status quo by using humor in medical school to help the sick. two quotes stood out in my mind, one was when Robin Williams as the medical student was talking about helping patients, saying "in a moment of laughter they forget about their pain, they do not FEEL pain" , also he said "I forget about my problems by helping others". This is my take on effectively fighting morgellons disease from a purely natural standpoint. Where my motivation lies to share with others what i have learned on my journey with the disease and also what i have learned from others. Do we want to let the disease win? NO. With agitation our symptoms get worse, and it is counter-productive. Isolating yourself serves nothing, except to make oneself more miserable. To those who come here confused lost i say we CAN win and that we do not have to be victims any longer. Post share your story and you too can help and find new friends. Laugh, and live and rejoin the human race. Many factors have made us sick, and if was contagius the whole world would have it by now. We are all each a piece of the puzzle. If you have come here looking for answers, know that you have come to the right place and are among friends. Welcome. Vent, it is healthy and sharing is inspiration to the others in here so they know they are not alone. The quotes in Patch Adams , however mirrored my feelings about this disease, that it is important to dwell on the positives lest we be destroyed. The negatives only make us weaker. What feels better than laughter? It is truly the best medicine.

LadyC, actually the laughter philosophy is quite sound. The bible also mentions this method of healing in Proverbs 17:22. It says, "A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit saps a person's strength." Most likely the saying, "Laughter is the best medicine," originated from this verse.

I've heard of people healing their cancer through watching comedy videos.
