Story

   Kenneth Edward Titus had problems with repeated falls. In June
1982, he went to his Kaiser doctor who, among other tests, carried
out a needle biopsy on his brain. This produced a diagnosis of
astrocytoma (brain cancer), very bad news indeed, which was given to
the patient on his birthday, June 25th. Edward consulted two other
doctors for their "second opinions," but the diagnosis and the
prognosis were the same: he would be dead by Christmas.

   Surgery was offered as a treatment option. However, Edward had a
friend who some six months earlier had submitted to surgery for a
brain tumor. He had emerged from the surgery reduced to the status
of a vegetable, and had died shortly before Edward was given his
diagnosis. With this experience fresh in his mind, he refused surgery.
He didn't tell anybody what the problem was, and told his family that
he had had a myelogram. When he continued to have episodes of
falling, it was assumed that he was drunk.

   By the end of September 1982, Edward's family found out what his
problem was, and his brother and sister started to investigate alternative
therapies, including the Burton treatment and the Gerson Therapy.
Edward chose the Gerson Therapy, because he hated the thought
of sq many needles (as used by Burton). He arrived at the Mexican
Gerson Hospital on October 1, 1982 to start treatment. He was not
at all sure about the Gerson Therapy, and suspected that it was
quackery. So, after being evaluated at the Gerson Therapy hospital,
he left-to go back to his business. At any rate, he felt that he "couldn't
spare the time" to take any treatment!

   However, in early December, he was back at the Gerson Hospital.
By then he was extremely weak, unable to walk, and blind. He
remembers that he went two days on the Therapy without taking any
enemas, being simply embarrassed to admit that he was unable to
take them. By that time he was "like a zombie," being highly toxic.
Edward was convinced that he was going to die - but wanted to die
away from his family, at the Mexican hospital. Yet after about three
weeks at the Gerson Hospital, before it was time to leave, he was able
to run up and down stairs. On Christmas Day his brother came to
visit and was "shocked" at the tremendous change in Edward. By
then his eyesight had also returned.

   When he got home, he still spent a lot of time resting in bed, and
his brother and sister took complete care of him, besides working at
their own full-time jobs. In time, he got well; his eyesight reverted to
the stage where he was able to use the same eyeglass prescription as
he had done at age 17. He now feels in "perfect health." But when he
went back to the Kaiser hospital, he found that they had "lost" his
records, as had the other two doctors to whom he went for second
opinions. Inexplicably, they "knew nothing about him," and had no
records!

   Titus now has a winter home in Puerto Vallarta, and spends the
summer months in Oregon. He says that he remembers relatively little
about his whole extraordinary experience, it is totally" behind him."
In his book, A Cancer Therapy, Dr. Gerson repeatedly states that
when a patient "forgets" about his cancer experience, when his fear
and panic are gone, he is really cured. It has now been more than 20
years since Edward was given six months to live, and he is healthy
and alive today!
