ORIGINAL: fluffypet61 i read this today in my Breast Cancer Support Group newsletter- "Research confirms the importance of friendship. In the Nurses Health Study, a large-scale analysis of nurses in the United States, women with breast cancer who could name ten friends had four times more chance of surviving their illness than women who could not. The geographical proximity of these friendships was not significant: their protective effect seemed to stem from the simple fact of feeling connected." Thanks to all of you, my FRIENDS! You have increased my survival rate times 4. so, if you can name more than 10 friends, does it increase your survival rate even more? I can name close to 40 friends you have here. that puts you at 100% survival rate, in my book. {{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}
