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.

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.
