My visualization was rather violent. I imagined machine-gunning the cancer cells. I am not a violent person. But after my diagnosis and before treatment, I dreamed that some bad people -- criminal types -- were hiding in a closet in my living room. So machine gunning criminals seemed right to me. Possibly I had a cell or two hiding in my body. I also remember that when I was taking AC there seemed to be a lot of James Bond movies on TV and I watched them while lying on the sofa. I think I liked the violence in them. It helped me imagine kicking the H--- out of my cancer cells. Thank heavens it's over now.
