Mary Harr ingtonMelanoma With Liver Metastasis
Mary was diag-
nosed with malignantmelanoma in Janu-
ary, 1996, at age 39.Her original tumor
was removed andshe was given 25
radiation treatmentsalong with four
months on the drugInterferon.
During the treat-
ments, it was discovered that the cancer hadspread to the liver. Her oncologist said that she
could possibly live up to nine months if sheresponded to the right type of chemotherapy.
Mary decided to go to the Gerson Clinic.
Her condition improved during the two weeks shespent at the hospital; she felt stronger, gained four
pounds and had a new positive attitude. She con-tinued the treatment at home and 10 months
later, in September 1997, her scan showed clear.
To this day, Marys oncologist refers to heras his amazing patient. Mary remains well 12
years later with no recurrence. Her story is on theDVD Dying To Have Known.
KilayaCir iel loChronic
Fatigue
For three years before beginning the
Gerson Therapy Kilaya experienced debilitatingfatigue, memory and concentration difficulties,
sore throat, tender lymph nodes, muscle/joint
pain, insomnia and many other symptoms. Hehad already been to a battery of doctors andhad tried other juicing/fasting programs. He
decided to research the theories of Dr. MaxGerson within the field of molecular and cellular
biology before starting the program.
From what he learned, he became con-vinced that the Gerson Therapy would work.
And it did. After nine months on the full programhe had not only recovered but had reached a
new level of physical, emotional and mentalhealth that he had never known before. He
credits the Gerson Therapy with providing alevel of contentment, calmness and strength
that he had never dreamed was even possible.
Gerson Recoveries
I rene StananaughtMelanoma
In 1996 Irene was diagnosed with stage III melanoma. Her health
continued to decline. After reading A Cancer Therapy: Results of 50Cases, she decided to do the Gerson Therapy. At first some of her family
members thought it was a foolish idea, but after seeing the results theycame to support Irene and the therapy completely.
In 1997, Irene visited the Gerson Clinic for two weeks. She did the
strict diet prescribed by Gerson doctors without wavering (13 juices perday and coffee enemas) for two-and-a-half years.
In June 2001 Irene revisited Gerson doctors for a check-up and all the tumor markers were
normal. A PET Scan showed her clear of any melanoma. Twelve years after beginning the TherapyIrene feels fine and still continues eating healthy and only organic food.

Mercedes LaPineCarcinoma
In 1970, Mercedes had a Pap smearwhich showed a malignancy: carcinoma in situ.
She had a hysterectomy. Her ovaries were leftintact, but one of them
showed a spot. Thecancer recurred
and metastasizedwithin a few years.
Despite much
advice to the con-trary, Mercedes
decided to fight hercancer the natural
way. She startedthe Gerson Therapy
as best she could onher own, and also tried several other therapies.
By 1979 she had not made much progress
so she came to the Gerson Clinic for an in-depthexperience of the Therapy. Mercedes recovered
and has remained in good health ever since as aresult of her commitment. She actively continues
her Naturopathic practice, teaching othersabout the benefits of natural healing.
Law rence KirkPancreatic Cancer
Lawrence wasdiagnosed with
pancreatic cancerin 1993. His doctor
told him that con-ventional therapies
would not help.
Lawrence begantreatment at theGerson Clinic in
December 1994.
After completing 20months of the Gerson Therapy, a CT scan found
no evidence of a tumor on his pancreas and allhis organs appeared normal. A subsequent CT
scan and MRI performed six years later confirmed
that Lawrence remained free of cancer.
Fifteen years after going to the Gerson
Clinic, Lawrence continues to feel great. Heenjoys gardening and playing with the grand-
children that he initially thought he mightnever see.
Ned WrightTesticular
Cancer
Today ,
when I thinkback to when
the doctor saidthat I had three
to six months tolive, it seems like
a distant night-mare. His words
struck me like a fist in the stomach. I wasgiven the proverbial cancer death
sentence.
Ned was diagnosed with testicularcancer in 1999 and he was treated with
surgery, radiation and chemotherapy. Afterthe first two procedures, the cancer came
back within six months. After the chemo-therapy, which was a grueling experience,
the cancer was back after just one monthand was now in three areas of the liver.
The doctor provided him with another
option: a bone marrow transplant followedby a high dose of chemotherapy that offered
only a 20% survival rate.
Ned had studied so may other thera-pies that seemed to be magic bullet
attempts at curing cancer. He went to theGerson Clinic on April 3, 2001. The diet was
tough and time consuming but I followed itjust as the Gerson doctor had prescribed.
As you can see by my testimony, it is
2009 and I am alive by Gods grace and theGerson Therapy. I am now a Gerson person,
because of a little known mans passion forhealing.
