This is a question that I've been considering posting a couple of 
times before and I'm sorry if you already discussed it to the 
breaking point somewhere earlier. It's also something that's been 
bothering me since I started writing on my fanfiction.  
What about witches/wizards and illnesses? We know very little about 
this. 
What we do know about them is that they didn't burn to death during 
the Middle Ages, Madam Pomfrey can fix any broken bone in a couple of 
minutes, nobody is ever getting colds and if they do I'm quite sure 
there would be a potion to cure it immediately. 
Is it so that only magic can kill a wizard? Is it impossible for them 
to get deathly sick unless it's a magical decease and given to them 
by another wizard? St Mungo's is a hosptital for Magical Deceases 
only, right?

And another thing- do you think that there among the wizards are some 
more suitable to cure and heal people, like Healers, to compare with 
Parselmouths ;-) *grin*

Glitter,
