Do people with cancer have to "fight" it?

We've heard from two of our listeners about this. Stephanie Butland wrote: "I'm amazed that no-one has suggested that attitude or state of mind could be instrumental in recovery or survival. I think this is worth investigating as I am using my mind as my main tool for recovery (along with surgery, chemotherapy and the rest...)"

Rachel Pearce, a medical statistician who is in remission from breast cancer wrote to say: "I have always been, and still am quite cynical about the 'battling cancer' attitude."

What's YOUR experience? Have you got or have you had cancer....what was your mental attitude towards it? Or maybe you are a health professional working with people who have cancer.
