Spanish professor and known opponent of Franco's Helena (Elena) Lumbreras noticed a tumour in her left breast at the age of&nbsp;51 in 1987. She tried to cure her breast cancer by different alternative methods; however, without any success. She left two daughters and her husband. After a first attempt with faith-healing, she noticed her tumour growing, and a metastasis appeared. Therefore she decided to undergo a late conventionally chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Afterwards, she once more tried an alternative method using whole-body hyperthermia, again without success. She then was advised to try New Medicine by a colleague. Her daughter Valeria remembers Helena Lumbreras called a ''Hamer center'' in the region of Malaga where someone promised her a ''recovery within three weeks''. An unknown person with a strong German accent advised her what to do. On March&nbsp;12 1995, her suffering increased considerably and she was not able to get up or leave her room any longer. The German-sounding person forbade the use of pain-relieving analgetic drugs and told her never to take any chemotherapy in future. Mrs Lumbreras was in terrible pain and was not able to sleep more than one hour per day and refused to eat. After two months of such a treatment by telephone, an GNM physician suddenly appeared: Spanish physician Vicenç Herrera from Barcelona. According to Herrera, Lumbreras allegedly suffered from a ''mother-child-conflict'' which caused cancer in her left breast. When the pain intensified even more, Herrera considered this a symptom of a ''proceso de recalcificación'' and of recovery. In June 1995, Lumbreras had to be admitted to a hospital as an emergency. In hospital, she happened to see a report on the case of Olivia Pilhar on TV (Olivia and her parents were in Spain at that time) and so learned of Hamer having lost his medical license. Her daughter Valeria remembers Lumbreras told her:  «[...] Ojalá lo hubiera sabido antes [...]» On August&nbsp;4 1995, she died suffering extreme pain. The doctor she last consulted was Vicenç Herrera Adell, a stout supporter of Hamer since 1992. Physicians Juan Puget Valencia and Vicenç Herrera Adell were sued by Mrs Lumbreras' parents. Puget Valencia voiced regret to have made use of New Medicine, and legal procedures against him were closed. The ''Consejo del Colegio de Médicos de Catalunya'' revoked the medical license of Vicenç Herrera.<ref>Xavier Margarit (Barcelona), El Mundo August&nbsp;13 1995</ref><ref>http://www.elmundo.es/papel/hemeroteca/1995/08/13/sociedad/59623.html</ref>

Carmen began to suffer from breast cancer in 2003, an intraductal carcinoma. Details of her suffering were made public in a television broadcast by her sister&nbsp;K.<ref>TV station RBB (radio Berlin-Brandenburg ARD member) transmission ''Kontraste'' August&nbsp;9, 2007</ref> and in forum messages by her boyfriend Erik Stolz<ref>http://www.ariplex.com/ama/ama_ham7.htm</ref>. She eventually died at the age of&nbsp;33. Together with her boyfriend Erik, she was known for a follower of New Medicine and therefore refused any conventional medical treatment.

Carmen began to suffer from breast cancer in 2003, an intraductal carcinoma. Details of her suffering were made public in a television broadcast by her sister&nbsp;K.<ref>TV station RBB (radio Berlin-Brandenburg ARD member) transmission ''Kontraste'' August&nbsp;9, 2007</ref> and in forum messages by her boyfriend Erik Stolz<ref>http://www.ariplex.com/ama/ama_ham7.htm</ref>. She eventually died at the age of&nbsp;33. Together with her boyfriend Erik, she was known for a follower of New Medicine and therefore refused any conventional medical treatment.

Instead, she seeked help with a German ''Heilpraktiker'' (naturopath). Carmen went to Hamer who was already barred at that time and lived in Spain. Hamer received Carmen and performed an allegedly ''successful'' so-called ''conflictolysis'' according to the rules of New Medicine. The Heilpraktiker promised her a recovery without any further cure, without a radiation therapy or operation. She only had to ''resolve her conflicts'', he said, in which case her cancer was simply going to disappear. But Carmen suffered a stroke (a typical complication in cancer) which, however, was considered an ''epileptoid crisis'' according to New Medicine-speak. She then received treatment in an amateurish way as she was given sugar-containing drinks, and ice to cool her head. Her breast cancer, however, was not influenced by these manoeuvres and she started to suffer from increasing nausea. Her tumour caused several metastases, advanced to her back and caused severe pain. At the beginning of February 2005, a public forum message announced her death caused by breast cancer. She died perhaps much earlier, in summer 2004, as she ceased to contribute to the GNM forum at that date. Many other messages related to her death were deleted by the administrators of that forum, but external observers had carefully recorded them in time. A discussion of this case was obviously not wanted in that forum. The Heilpraktiker could not be sued successfully and his identity is still unknown.

Italian physician Paolo Rossaro from Albignasego (Vicenza) has been known to treat cancer patients according to New Medicine and to perform a New Medicine-specific ''CT brain scan diagnosis''. He also founded a private association called ''Primum vitae''. Several of his patients died following his instructions, but no patient healed has been known of so far. Rossaro is now accused of unvoluntary manslaughter and of causing severe bodily injuries ("omicidio colposo" art&nbsp;589&nbsp;cp und "lesioni colpose"), and faces the loss of his medical license.<ref>newspaper article ''Mattino aus Padova'' May&nbsp;19, 2007</ref><ref>newspaper article ''Giornale di Vicenza'' May&nbsp;19, 2007</ref>

*On Christmas Eve 2007, Italian truck driver Christian Trevisan died of Hodgkin lymphoma in Vicenza (Italy) at the age of only&nbsp;35,<ref>article in ''giornale di Vicenza'' December&nbsp;29, 2006</ref> leaving a wife and a daughter. According to several different newspaper articles, he refused conventional medical help and believed in Hamer's New Medicine and in the miraculous abilities of Paolo Rossaro. Rossaro in vain treated Trevisan with ''oceanic water'', vitamins and the psychological support of New Medicine. When his situation deteriorated, Trevisan in despair finally decided to seek help in a conventional clinic where doctors decided to sue Rossaro. But Trevisan's situation was so grave that treatment failed and he died after a short time.

A contact via email can be established.</ref> was born in 1959 and worked as chemist in Bergamo (Italy). In 2007, she died of breast cancer at the age of&nbsp;48. She had taken a three year formation course in New Medicine in Aulla (Liguria). In 2004, she was aware of a suspicious histological diagnostic result, but strictly refused any medical intervention, believing solely in New Medicine. She also refused any further diagnostic procedures. She left her job as a chemist and became a Tai-Chi teacher. She was in contact with a local physiotherapist (P.&nbsp;P.<ref>name is known</ref>) in Bergamo and the president of GNM association ALBA, Marco Pfister. According to her relatives, she talked to Pfister on the phone almost every day (Pfister has no known medical degree or license). In June 2007, her breast cancer was growing and she started to suffer more and more. In August, she developed an icterus, her skin took on a yellow colour. Marco Pfister told her this was a symptom of recovery, and her yellow skin in reality was caused by her anger not to be able to visit Ischia island during her holidays where she had rented a vacation house. An operation was only of use for ''esthetic reasons'', Pfister advised. Her left breast meanwhile showed several large tumours. On August&nbsp;27, she was admitted to a local hospital (Ospedali Riuniti di Bergamo) as an emergency case and received a blood donation. There were several metastases in her body.
