Spanish professor and known opponent of Franco's Helena (Elena) Lumbreras noticed a tumour in her left breast at the age of 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 another 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 12 1995, her suffering increased considerably and she was not able to get up or leave her room any longer. The German-sounding person prohibited the use of pain-relieving analgetic drugs and told her never to take any chemotherapy in future. Mrs Lumbreras was in terrible pain and 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's 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>
