My wife, Linda, was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer with almost no symptoms. We then went to Dr. Nissenblatt’s office in East Brunswick, New Jersey, and met Dr. Bruno Fang. After PET scans and chest CT scans, Linda was told she had one to one-and-a-half years to live. Dr. Fang said he would do everything in his power to give her longer life and quality of life. He started with chemotherapy that healed the damaged bone while constantly reducing the size of the main tumor. She was on this chemotherapy for two years until it started to lose its effectiveness, so he changed to another chemotherapy. He never gave up and gave Linda, our children and me confidence. Dr. Fang gave her three-and-a-half years of life and almost three years of quality of life. She was able to see and hold our last grandchild only because Dr. Fang never gave up. He is not only our hero but the hero of all his patients. He definitely deserves recognition for his caring care of all his patients as well as his fight against cancer.
