Yes, that might be true. However, the "Three Pillars of Survivorship" are still the best insurance against recurrences, especially the third pillar, "Stress Reduction".
Please read, and re-read the following post:

If you want to minimize your chances of having a recurrence, you need to focus on the positive side of things, not the negative side. This is because persistent focus on the dark side of things will severely undercut your immune system due to the elevation of stress level.
You need to explore the different options for lowering your stress level.
For example, "Think a positive thought to drown out a negative thought..."

Sorry not trying to be rude or anything, but i know lot of stressful people who live long lives.. I don't think there's any direct link to stress and cancer unless of course being stressful leads to an unhealthy lifestyle

I know I'm responding to an old post, but you have to keep in mind is that many people who *didn't* have one move on and aren't necessarily posting here. Getting caught up in statistics or correlations can cause you a lot of heartache. Believe me I know.
