Mr. Joseph Mormot, 71 years of age, was diagnosed with primary liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma) and after a few sessions of chemotherapy he was told by his doctors that there was no help for him and that he only had a few months to live.

He came to the Issels Treatment Center on June 9, 2010. He was in a very bad shape from pain, swollen legs, and jaundice. When he was admitted, his Billrubin was 20, and by the end of his treatment it had already dropped to 5. His bile duct is open, which allows for normal liver functions; he doesn't have any pain, his legs are not swollen and he can walk freely.

In his own words:
"When the doctors talk to you, you can see they talk from their heart...they treat you as a friend...and it was very supportive for me. I never experienced such great care before..."
