Love, Medicine and Miracles

by M.D. Bernie S. Siegel

Unconditional love is the most powerful stimulant of the immune system. The truth is: love heals. Miracles happen to exceptional patients every day - patients ho have the courage to love, those who have the courage to love, those who have the courage to work with their doctors to participate in and influence their own recovery. Bernie Slegal, M.D, practices surgery in New Haven and teaches at Yale University. In 1978, Siegal started ECap (Exceptional Cancer Patients), a specialized form of individual and group therapy based on "carefontation," a loving, safe, therapeutic confrontation that facilitates personal change and healing. This experience led to his desire to make everyone aware of his or her own healing potential. In 1988, he became president of the American Holistic Medical Association.
