(Nov 2, 2019) "It didn't work. In fact Robert grew sicker." "Marcel Robert now lives in a quiet, darkened room in a rest home." '"Following medical advice I paid for meals to be delivered and home help as Southern Health refused to believe he had a physical illness, saying they didn't recognise ME," Ron says.' As his son grew sicker, he watched on helpless, and says apart from [[Rosamund Vallings]], other doctors did not believe he had a physical illness. There's another code within DNA which responds to environment and things that are happening to you and can change in diseases, called the epigenetic code... We've looked at 30 million sites across their whole genome, to look for changes in these little chemical tags, and they change the function of the DNA in terms of whether information gets out or not."
