There is an important difference to note between healing and curing.
Curing an illness implies that it disappears completely, that there is an absence of physical disease. It is not a process, it is a goal. Someone is considered to be cured when there is no disease.
Healing, on the other hand, is a process, and as such it takes many forms. It is possible that healing and curing look the same. It is also possible that healing means acceptance of one’s self, or realigning with some of the deeper issues which either caused or contributed to the rise of the initial problem, while the physical disease remains .
