    LOL! badger it's from Cinderella. Love the words and the Disney animation. It's here on utube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvcTI3ctK8o

    I used to hum this during chemo imagining that I had a fairy godmother with a magic wand to bippity boppity boo away the cancer.

    Whatever gets us through, right? :))

    Love it!  What a great visualization.  Mine was archangels with flaming swords.

    Probably a remnant of books by Frank Peretti where they hunt down demons.

    One woman I know visualized chemo as Pac-Man gobbling up cancer cell dots.

    Any other visualizations people want to share?  Whatever gets us through!
