yes a diseased mind is dangerous than the disease itself because major diseases can also be controlled by a strong will power to live whereas petty diseases like flu can be fatal to a man who lost hope in his life. in the context of the last leaf jhonsy lost hope and gave up on life. she harboured a strange fancy in her mind. she begins to believe that the moment
the last leaf of the ivy drops she will also die.
she is a weak willed girl. she gives in to her illness. even the doctor gets worried. the doctor too says that she has a little chance of recovery because if she starts to lose hope on life she will be having 50 percent chance of survival. the next morning when she saw the leaf still hanging on the creeper in spite of the fierce winds. she realizes her mistake and gains hope on life. in just few days she recovers completely. thus we can say that the will to live is important to survive from any disease.
