Re: Stress Major Driver In Cancer Cells

My hair is falling out right now. Stress. It happens when we grow up, and maybe there is a correlation. I tend to think that cancer happens, but we increase our chances often unknowingly just by breathing and eating and celebrating more birthdays. I am no different than any of you with few risk factors and no family history, so what caused this? I met a friend who told me it was in my left breast because I was holding a grudge against my mother or sisters. Had it been in my right breast, I must have been holding a grudge against a best girl friend, or maybe she said enemy. I wasn't listening anymore.
