“Jothy's case is not an exceptionbut is evidence to the act that

the power o the mind is strongerthan any disease. Sports are a bril-liant orm o therapy. It enables aperson to get distracted rom hisproblem, enhances the concentra-tion levels, increases sel-confdence.

Exercise (o any orm) increases thelevels o what I would call 'happi-ness chemical' in the system, leadsto weight loss and eeling o ftness.Sports have this incredible power tomake anyone eel 'alive'. It is some-thing that I recommend to everyonewho comes to me!"

“Yes, it is an amazing case. What wenormally believe about cancer is that

when it spreads, cure is not very easy at all.It is possible in many patients that whenthere is lung surgery, or sometimes othersurgeries, i there are only one or two lesionsin these areas, then patients can sometimesbe cured. So, maybe because he was a young

man – he had good overall strength – andbecause he had good exercise in skiing, itmay have helped him indirectly by improv-ing his immune system. He was told that hewouldn’t live long, but most o such prog-nostics are given on the basis o generalisa-tion. Individuals, sometimes, can beat theodds, and surprise medicine.”
