Mr.
Meng, 60 years old, hails from Lanzhou, Gansu Province. Throughout the more
than two years he has been battling lung cancer, his worries have never
dissipated. (╥╯^╰╥)
At the end of 2025, he headed south to Hainan as usual for the winter. However,
this time, he harbored an exceptionally firm intention in his heart. (^o^)/YES!
He made a special trip to seek consultation from Professor Yang Nong, a
specially-appointed lung cancer diagnosis and treatment expert at Hainan Cancer
Hospital, to find a clear direction for his subsequent anti-cancer journey.
O(∩_∩)O Hmm!
A journey of anti-cancer struggle with twists and turns
01 | October 2023
In October 2023, a diagnosis report shattered Mr. Meng's peaceful life: he was diagnosed with advanced lung adenocarcinoma, accompanied by brain and lung metastases. Mr. Meng did not back down and promptly initiated targeted therapy. Fortunately, when he underwent a follow-up examination at the end of that year, his condition was assessed as "partially remitted," marking a promising milestone in his treatment.
02 | Early 2024
The road to fighting cancer is never smooth. In early 2024, bad news came from the follow-up examination: the solid component of the pulmonary cavitary nodules increased, and new small nodules appeared. In April of the same year, the pulmonary lesions significantly enlarged, indicating disease progression, and the treatment plan had to be urgently adjusted. In the middle of the year, Mr. Meng underwent local treatment for pulmonary metastatic lesions, and the systemic treatment plan was subsequently changed to chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy.
03 | April 2025
In April 2025, the treatment plan was adjusted again based on the latest review results. Faced with frequent changes in the treatment plan during the process, Mr. Meng inevitably felt anxious and at a loss regarding the subsequent treatment.
Traveled thousands of miles to seek a renowned doctor in Hainan
Over the past two years, Mr. Meng and his family have been closely monitoring his condition. By chance, they followed Professor Yang Nong on Tiktok. In the videos, Professor Yang's decisive decision-making in the face of complex conditions, as well as his benevolent heart as a doctor who always thinks of the patient, deeply touched Mr. Meng and his family.
01 | Consultation
As the days for heading south for winter approached, an idea gradually sprouted in Mr. Meng's mind: this trip to Hainan was not just about escaping the cold, but also about finding Professor Yang Nong and asking him to oversee his treatment.
At the beginning of this year, in the consultation room of Hainan Cancer Hospital, Professor Yang Nong patiently and meticulously reviewed all the imaging data and treatment records of Mr. Meng since his diagnosis.

02 | Propose treatment suggestions
In just a few sentences, like a gentle breeze and rain, the anxiety and confusion that had been weighing on Mr. Meng for over two years were instantly soothed. After a comprehensive assessment of the condition, Professor Yang provided a clear follow-up treatment plan: it was recommended that Mr. Meng continue to undergo immunotherapy combined with anti-angiogenic targeted therapy, with the treatment course lasting until July 2026.
Meanwhile, Professor Yang repeatedly emphasized: "During the treatment period, it is essential to return for regular follow-ups and closely monitor any changes in your condition. After the review in July this year, we will scientifically assess whether it is necessary to adjust the treatment plan or discontinue the medication based on the specific situation. We will proceed step by step, taking solid and steady steps."
"This trip was so worth it!" Mr. Meng heaved a sigh of relief, finally revealing a long-lost smile of satisfaction on his face. "The heavy burden weighing on my heart was completely lifted by Professor Yang's words! He observed carefully and explained clearly. As a 'migratory bird elderly person', I can finally settle down and enjoy a comfortable winter in Hainan!"
