A perhaps miraculous recovery may be in sight for Bob Marley, the famous 36-year-old Jamaican singer known as the "King of Reggae". According to American doctors he should have died three months ago, but the perhaps miraculous treatment of Dr Josef Issels, who 11 years ago saved the life of the British athlete Lillian Board, has brought a decisive turn in the illness that was undermining him. When he arrived at the clinic on Lake Tegernsee, in the Bavarian Alps, Bob Marley was a mentally broken man. Almost paralysed and unable to walk because of a brain tumour, he had also been attacked by cancer in the lungs and stomach. Today he has regained the hope of living and his condition has improved enormously.
