Recently, a woman visitor telephoned from Yosemite Valley to compliment me on one of my recent books, Yosemite and Its Innkeepers. As our conversation dwindled, she said hesitantly, “I understand you have a health problem.” “Health problem? Me? Good grief, no—I’m extremely healthy.” Suddenly, I recognized her euphemism and added laughingly, “Oh, well, I do have a wheelchair, but it’s no problem.”
When we study cure historically, we find many meanings and many interpretations. This page presents a random quote from many years of searching for information and understanding of the meanings of cure.
The book A New Theory of Cure (there being no “old theory of cure”) provides a comprehensive definition of cure for all curable illnesses.
Health is whole.
An illness is a hole in our healthiness.
A cure fills the hole with health.
