"History has demonstrated that people can laugh their way back to health from almost any illness." -Martin St James
Medical Journalist, Norman Cousins, documents in his book, 'Anatomy of an Illness', his recovery from the autoimmune disease, Scleroderma. Scleroderma is an extremely painful, and in most cases, fatal disease. Normal Cousins sat in a Motel room and watched the Marx Brothers, Bud Abbott and Lou Costello, Candid Camera and other such comedy series. His laughing, in conjunction with an intravenous Vitamin C drip, allowed him to defeat his disease and return to full health.
