OK, I guess I'll just go ahead and share my thoughts. Wait, is that somebody speaking? Do you have something to say ma'am? No? Ok. 
Flofrog, I think you bring up an excellent point about negative healing and review, with an emphasis on healing. It has stumped me as well. The reason is that Confederation sources seem to attribute to healing the quality of love, and this would seem to be absent on the service to self path. This is another opportunity to remind ourselves that truly we do not understand what love is. Over and over Confederation sources remind us that love is a much more powerful, much more broad and encompassing, much more multifaceted force than the cultural concept whose term we typically employ. It is so broad that it is reflected in the negative path, which those of Ra remind us is a path of love of self. If that which we perceive as so devoid of love actually is an intense form of love, well, we have some balancing to do in our approach to these matters, do we not?
I typically land on two conclusions. First, there's something about the nature of time/space that allows for a review of the totality of oneself to occur for both polarities. It's worth reminding ourselves that since review is useful prior to a choice of polarity, it would be natural for this review to continue as an extension of choosing. Second, what is the nature of injury, sickness, etc.? It is to teach at its root, is it not? Then would healing always involve making one whole in the kind of positive, loving way we understand, or is it more about learning the lesson of the experience, whatever direction towards which that lesson is designed to push us?
It may be that we are so service to others facing that we have a very personalized concept of healing, of what healing typically entails beyond the more technical definition I mentioned before. In short, do we conflate healing with unity and love simply because for us on our path that's what healing usually entails? After all, those of Ra do mention that negative folks program for great health, and any lack of health is designed to hone and focus anger. Perhaps this is accomplished in the time/space review.
Great question, flofrog! What do you think about all this?
