Story

   In June 1993, T. I., an eight-year-old boy, was brought to the Gerson
clinic in Mexico from Hungary. In March 1992, he had been diagnosed
with Ewing's sarcoma, an endothelial myeloma forming tumors on the
long bones, for which medical texts give a very poor prognosis. In Hungary,
he had been treated with chemotherapy, but the cancer had spread
from his pelvis into the soft tissues of his abdomen. He arrived at the
hospital looking pale and thin and had lost his hair. Despite the unfamiliar
surroundings and his inability to understand English, the boy
showed remarkable discipline and consumed the unaccustomed saltless
vegetarian food and the raw juices without any fuss.

   After returning to Hungary, his mother reported that, in three
months on the therapy, the boy's tumor had disappeared. Two years
later, she sent us some photographs of T. I., showing a strong, well developed,
healthy-looking 10-year-old child.

   His dramatic recovery was underscored by another fact. Prior to his
journey to Mexico, being treated in Hungary with chemotherapy, he
was one of a group of seven children, all suffering from Ewing's sarcoma
and all receiving the same chemotherapy treatment at the same hospital.
While T. I. had survived and was fit and well, the six other children
from his group were all dead. The last news of the young patient was
received in March 2006, when his mother reported that he was then 20
years old and enjoyed continued good health.
