Yes, and this is precisely the reason people get sick with unexpected illnesses - they are always the result of their overall negative thoughts about their lives, and by the character of the illness much about those thoughts can be told. When very young children get sick or are born with an illness, it is a direct result of their parents negative thinking about themselves, their relationship or their lives. They haven't wished directly for their child to be sick, of course. But they have had enough negativity in their lives so that it manifests as a sickness in their child in order to give them a lesson.
This type of thinking can sound overly harsh at first, but when you really look at it, you can see how it always is true, even when the first fast facts seem to tell otherwise.
I haven't yet figured out the reasons for wars and collective disasters, thus I can't comment on them yet. But I suspect something similar is at work there, although on a collective level.
