Story

   In 1953, Rosamond found blood in her stool. She also suffered
pain and weakness. The Head of Rectal Surgery at Stanford
University Medical School did a biopsy and discovered a
malignant polyp, 13 cm up from her rectum. It was described
as a highly malignant type of mucoid adenocarcinoma. He
stated that without surgery, she had less than 10% chance of
survival. She refused.

   Instead, Rosamond attended the New York clinic of Dr.
Gerson in October of 1953 and started the Gerson Therapy
there. She recovered completely. She was married in 1955 and
never had any more migraines after she started the treatment.

   In 1981, at the San Diego convention celebrating the 100th
anniversary of Dr. Gerson's birth, she testified regarding her
health. She not only was very well but also reported that since
her recovery on the Gerson Therapy, she never again suffered
the migraines she used to have, nor did she have any colds or
flu.

   She remains alive and well to age 77, 37 years later in 1990.
