This is so strange. One of our local channels had this story on last night and said the people who DID NOT know they were being prayed for did no better than those who were in the hospital but were not prayed for. OTOH the people who knew they were being prayed for did much better. Either my local newsies don't know how to read or this story has been reissued with a different conclusion that was originally given. Sure is strange.

I'd guess your local newsheads didn't read it right. They're paid to be glib, not smart.
