Joe Nolan seems to be alive and well, since his most recent Facebook post was only two hours ago.

Nonetheless, his health remains questioned. It started when he revealed in 2019 that he had been diagnosed with prostate and kidney cancer.

Joe talked about the physicians who treated him and referred to a treatment team comprised of professionals from The Summit Medical Group, The Rutgers Cancer Institute, and RWJ/Barnabas Health.

Similarly, he described the outlook as excellent. Additionally, he said that he would have kidney surgery and prostate radiotherapy in the coming months. According to reports, medical specialists detected kidney cancer by mistake. Despite the absence of symptoms, he averted tragedy thanks to a prostate cancer screening.

Joe's kidney was surgically removed by Dr. Eric Singer of the Rutgers Cancer Institute. Similarly, he was treated with radiation for prostate cancer.

Although the journalist acknowledged the situation's unpredictability, he voiced optimism for the future. And towards the conclusion of his article, he pleaded with his readers to do a P.S.A. test and pray for him.

Apart from this health issue, Joe also had a heart attack in 2014 at his house. His care was provided at Overlook Hospital. He had surgery to correct a complete arterial blockage.

He attributes his survival to the Westfield police, the Westfield Volunteer Rescue Squad, and the hospital. According to reports, a police officer rescued him in about a minute and a half. The rescue team arrived two minutes later, followed by paramedics. And he was discharged from the operation room 62 minutes later.
