Story

   M.H., aged 40, was diagnosed with melanoma in her vaginal wall. This
was confirmed by biopsy and subsequent surgery, followed by 25 radiation
treatments and a four-month course of interferon. During this
treatment, the cancer spread to her liver. The oncologists treating her
thought that, with chemotherapy, the patient might live up to nine
months. Although M.H. was extremely weak and in serious pain, she
refused that option and, in November 1996, embarked on the Gerson
treatment in spite of her oncologist's warning against it. In September
1997, a scan showed that M.H. was clear of melanoma. Ten years later,
she remains fit and well.
