Does it matter? If someone says they are praying for me, or petitioning the Goddess on my behalf, or sending healing energies my way, or thinking me well, or visualizing my health, or even sacrificing chickens on their home altar, it means they care about me and wish me well, and whether or not it "works" is really quite secondary for me. I wouldn't stop taking my meds because of it, but I guarantee I would at least *feel better* knowing people care.No chickens were harmed in the production of this message.
