“In December 2005 I was diagnosed with stage 4 melanoma. Early in 2006 I had a large mass removed from my back and a other smaller tumor from my lung. After a series of cat scans, pet scans, brain scans and bone scans I was told a few months later that it had spread to an area behind my stomach wall and 2 on my spine. The tumors on my spine soon hit the spinal cord and the pain was unbearable. They loaded me with steroids and pain killers and when they had the pain under control they tried to radiate them to reduce the size. Radiation did nothing and I was now hooked on steroids and pain killers.

Since the oncologists gave me NO HOPE I started to investigate alternatives and found Gerson. I came to Mexico in June of 2007 and stayed for three weeks. I have been on the program for 18 months (modified because I have two artificial hips) and I am sure if I weren’t on your program I’d certainly be dead by now.

I still have some to go to have a normal life, since I lose stamina during the day and have a variety of aches and pains, but nothing like I had before. I can’t tell you how thankful I am for you and the Gerson family.

As a side benefit I am on NO prescriptions. I had blood pressure problems (now 120 over 72 for a year). I had atrial fibrillation ( no more irregular heart beats) People think I’m crazy since I’m 75 yrs old/young in January, but I’m determined to show all the Doctors who threw me under the bus.
Thanks again to you and the team in Mexico

Sincerely, Bill D.”
