I can't speak for Molly, but I don't think she's suggesting that all
non-medical healing is through prayer. What do you think about mind
over matter? I know back in the 60's a lot of people tried to use

says, "I think I'm getting a cold" I typically respond, "Don't think
that or you will get one".
