Story

   Kay was an alcoholic until October 1984. In order to 'assist' her
recovery, her doctor gave her anti-depressants. She immediately
developed grand mal seizures and told her doctor that she thought
she was allergic to these drugs. The doctor didn't believe her nor
did he test her, but simply added an anti-seizure drug (Dilantin) to
her medication. She took those drugs for some four years, until
another physician allowed for the possibility of an allergy and
took her off the anti-depressants. The seizures stopped and never
returned. She was also taken off Dilantin.

   The years of improper drugs plus her prior alcoholism all
added to the deterioration of her body that precedes the onset of
malignancy.

   In 1989, she developed many moles all over her body, especially
on her back. By December 1990, she had some moles removed
and biopsied. The dermatologist found one mole to be malignant
melanoma. He did a deeper 'wide' excision, but was unable to
obtain "clean margins." Another surgeon was asked to excise
additional tissue to clear any remaining tumor tissue and a large
part of the skin on her back was removed. This surgeon then
stated that he encountered 'clean edges.'

   In January of 1991, a bone scan showed "hot spots" (malignancies)
in her bones.

   A relative gave her Dr. Gerson's book, A Cancer Therapy:
Results of 50 Cases, and she started the Gerson Therapy at home.
30 days later, an MRI showed clean. By the time we met her, she
still had many moles. Some of those are being removed and
biopsied - and show benign.

   In 1995, she is reporting in good condition.
