Hi Janielee,

I am very sorry and sad that you contracted the disease and at the same time relieved that you have conquered it and come out of it successfully. I am sure that the adverse experience has made you a stronger person.

Your story of healing can also inspire others and calm people here as well.

It is also said by Ali Ibn Talib, an Islamic saint, that contracting disease does not confer spiritual merit in one, but will destroy negative karma or impurities in the soul.

This is one way to look at the positive and a positive mind will aid in healing.
