| When a patient is told he has an incurable form of cancer or when all possible forms of therapy have failed, the main focus must be prayer. Clinics in every part of the world claim to have a cure for cancer, from enemas to magnets and everything in between. These claims offer false hope. |
| What is real is prayer and support by family and friends. We need to believe that God is forgiving and merciful and can offer help, love, and peace to troubled souls.
