It's true that meditation can enhance our well-being, however its not necessarily the cure for serious illness, but it may help to soothe the worst symptoms of the illness.
Meditation certainly helped me when I had an operation - though I suspect it was partly the morphine they gave me too !

Tibetan Buddhist teachers meditate, and from my offline observations, some still get serious health problems and seek western medical treatments for everything from high blood pressure to cancer, so we shouldn't see it as a cure for everything.

Meditation is very important though, and one of its benefits it a more peaceful, open mind which can be helpful in all aspects of life.
