“I remember a patient with glioblastoma of the brain stem.   It was inoperable, so all we could offer was chemotherapy and radiation.

It was frustrating seeing this young man with a son wilt away slowly, despite the availability of modern medicine.   I felt the pressing need to find a better way.   These patients give me the motivation to keep persevering.”
