When the guy in white said that he wants to eternalise the memory of him and his parents at the zoo and bird park. He's too pure for this world T_T
I Agee, he’s so sweet and kind , it broke my heart how his “ friends “ treated him. How awful. 😢
That guy in white really touched my soul..... such a kind and innocent soul :(
The zoo and bird park thing made my stone heart c r a c k
I get the feeling that he hasn't lived much.
It is not a bad thing that he seems to resign to his fate, but I also hope that he can be a little more confident like Ellil.
Sim, if you are reading this, remember, almost everyone has some kind of problems. In a good relationship, both parties can be "burdens" to each other, but both parties also help each other out. I hope you will find someone who accepts you for who you are and create more wonderful memories together.
Cried the hell out of myself when one of them said "for pride sake, i told them i rolled down the stairs faster than you walk down"
Yess i also feel really sad for him! :(
This had to be the best video I’ve ever watched. I just lost my wife ten weeks ago after being married for fifty years. To hear these brave and selfless people talk about their illnesses and dying was overwhelming . God bless all of them and their families.
George Hallden Really sorry to hear that. I pray that your wife would be in a better place now and that she’d be constantly looking over you and that you’ll find happiness in everything that’s coming your way. God bless you sir🙌🏽
M. Farihin 🙏🏼
God bless you sir. Spread your love.
❤
George Hallden...so very sorry for the loss of your wife. Stay strong, life is a learning curve though sometimes what we go through is very painful....I sincerely hope that time will heal your heart. God bless you, my friend, I will remember you in my prayers. Sending you my love and my understanding.xxx
The lady in the blue shirt who said she would document her progress to help others due to the lack of information ❤️
The guy who said he used to have a lot of friends when he was a kid and then they didn't want to friend him anymore got me crying. He's so sweet. Kids can be so mean.
Do you want to meet him just once?
“You need to think about what kind of ending you want “. Very deep words and so applicable to all of us.
I feel like they deserve to live more than me
Don’t say that!
depression, need counselling.
I think so too because I'm wasting my life away not doing very much. I'm not a bad person but not a very useful one either. So...
Do not say that !! Everyone deserves to live
Avis 241 wow me too
Great video. Just a suggestion. How about bringing people who handle suicide hotlines...There's been a rise in suicide cases especially with the recent suicide case of a kpop singer, Sulli of f(x).
It's a very good idea cos many people don't really understand how to deal with a suicidal person.
and now Koo Hara from KARA...
Rip to our 3 beautiful angels jonghyun,sulli and hara we will miss you
Sulli was a beautiful soul she deserved more
@@muffin15_59 wasnt it goo hara
'Don't dwell on what you are experiencing now. One day it will turn out beautiful.'. An inspirational quote.
He wants to sleep like snow white. That was beautiful
Cried so much throughout this video.
My mom had breast cancer when I was 13 and her condition was hidden for years before my aunt broke it to me. I felt so guilty and devastated.
I remember coming back from the hospital crying alone in bed and being weighed by the potential prospect that I could’ve lost her, she’s thankfully still surviving and on medication.
It really opened my eyes up to how fragile and precious human life is, and how you never know when it’s your last day.
Gotta live each day like your last
True
when its your actual last
@@rqzzlldqzzls that's the thing you never know. Don't put things off tomorrow is never guaranteed.
@@elleford8725 this could be terrible because i know some people who would live their last day on earth causing anarchy
Also the young women stole my heart. She pointed put her dr. Telling her she is the most carefree patient he's ever had and that is what I aspire to be more like. Anxiety rules my life from morning to night. I want to be less worried, and a lot more care free.
Hi Dear, just remember anxiety is basically the fear of the unknown, it easy for people like us who have anxiety to fear the what if’s, but don’t let it take over you, write your worries down and meditate or go for long walks with nature. Life is both cruel and a blessing we just need to know how to navigate through the tough times. People who been through challenges become one of the happiest individuals. Take care and everything will resolve itself
I had brain tumor since 15 yrs old now I am 32. After having this illness over 10yrs... I beat the tumor there are some ppl who really cared and some don't but I thank myself and my mum which always stand by me
Glad youre alive.
wow, keep hanging on
Wow your a real fighter! I wish you all the best.
God bless you luke! You are very brave, i admire your bravery. Stay healthy and happy always. Regards, Winston
❤️
I feel like after watching these videos,my perspective on life is really revamped.I feel inspired to treat people around me better and motivated to do more with my life now.
That brown skin guy has such a charismatic personality. And he's very intelligent. I loved all his answers.
The youngest lady is so young and eloquent...my heart goes out to all of them 😭I totally can relate as I had lost many family members to the Big C .. hopefully theres treatment for them..
Shout-out to the OGS producers for making this series happen. Class.
Thank you, my late sister passed away due to ovarian cancer. I was never closed to her and even when she was at her deathbed she asked my family member where I was, she wanted to see me but I couldn't make it. Next thing I know she's gone.
It's really sad. You never know what you have till you lose it.
defunct32 You couldn’t make it at your sister’s deathbed? Need to start prioritising your life man.
constanceyx km sure he/she knows that. It’s not your place to tell him what to do.
constancey he or she could be at oversea trying to make it back? We cannot judge
My condolences to you.
@@ML-hn3rs I truly hope your brother was just using teasing as a form of worry.
As a Cancer survivor, This really serve a reminder for myself not to always compare myself with other as there are much things that are unknown to me still. waiting to be discovered.
That ending quote really hit a nerve
My friend also had bone cancer in her spine. They found it around her 21 birthday and she fought it off for 3 years until it finally took her. I remember her hoping that her testing and experimental treatments helped others who had the same condition in the future. She hated whenever anyone was acting doom and gloom and said that she was always thankful for anyone just being there because her friends and family started avoiding her once she was diagnosed. People tend to distance themselves from the sick and dying and I get that. I really do, because it's so much harder to let them go but if you really care about someone, you face that heartbreak for their sake.
I think is a good reminder to treasure the people who are still with us, and for us to spend more time with our family and friends.
Everyone is battling their own battles every day. I approach a lot of people during roadshows, doorknocking etc. Majority of them look so cold and unfeeling, and sometimes I almost believe it. But videos like this remind me that most people are actually really kind, and everyone is struggling with their own stuff one way or another. I hope everyone see a streak of light in their life no matter how tough times get.
Its bawl your eyes out night for me. Here i am worrying and “depressed” that im jobless and single when there are others.... battling death!
the 2 ladies reminded me of my mum... i lost my mum to cancer in 2020.... i miss u ma!
My mum also jus been diagnosed with advanced stage cancer...May God bless all of those that r struggling.
i bawled my eyes out throughout the whole video.
Best episode on this channel. It’s so beautiful that all of them are so different despite having critical illness. I sense this positivity from all of them. Much more than me when facing such conditions in life.
jim w this is the best channel in youtube
All of them are so Brave and Admirable. I wish that whatever happens is that they all find happiness for eternity. Thank you for this inspirational video. 💕💕
Oh my gosh... To the people blaming yourselves, please don't!! It isn't your fault you were diagnosed with something like this. None of you "deserve it" because no one deserves this! It's hard to think "maybe I could have prevented this" or "maybe it would have been different if I did this," but in the end, I don't think it's the fault of the people who has been victimized by these illnesses! You guys are trying your best now to work towards bettering your health, and that's what's important!
the woman talking about ignoring her bloat got me thinking, though....maybe I should go get myself checked out bc I bloat a lot. I can understand her beating herself up a bit...but I agree with you, ultimately. Like the young girl who had breast cancer said...there are just so many factors that come into play...if you really try to nail them all down, it just becomes endless. Disease happens, it's part of existing as a living organism
Titonka, thank you for your kind words. It helps to be reminded that we have to be kind to ourselves when something undesirable like these happens.
7:28= brought me to tears. NO ONE deserves any illness!!
"Don't dwell on what you're experiencing now, one day you'll turn out beautiful" Thank you to that woman who said this. It really made me reflect and learn a lot :)
when asking them what memories they wanna eternalize....all the things they say is all related to family. no one says they wish they earn more money / became ceo, etc. thanks so much for this coz it proves to us that, we spend most of our lives working jobs we hate to earn money to buy stuff to impress ppl we dislike, when we should be spending more time with ppl that matter instead.
I really really love your series. This video made me cry and tear when the old man talked about how his wife did not want to leave him. I am just 21 years of age but, i really cannot imagine myself dealing with separation when im old . :( makes me treasure life a little more..
Another good episode of 'Can Ask Meh?'. So much of encouraging words for people who are going through hard times now. Also to remind us again do not judge a book by its cover and to treat everyone nice even it's just a smile from a stranger, it still helps!
It is so heartening to see the courage, positivity and strength displayed from each interviewee. May you all continue to live life to the fullest.
I think pain shapes us... But no one deserves to go through this
Man, I just want to thank all the people who were involved in this video for their bravery and openness with sharing such a sensitive issue. As an aspiring health care professional, it makes me want to try harder for those people who need us in their final days/weeks/months/years of life.
what can you do then that you cannot do now. They guy said, I don’t want to burden any girls. This simple few words really broke my heart. So thoughtful, and such a big heart. God he deserves better.
Yolanda has a positive personality. For busy people try to get enough sleep and drink green tea twice a week to help in detoxification.
My mom was diagnosed with cancer last year. 5 weeks after she was diagnosed she died. She couldn't breathe and as someone with asthma being with my mom while she struggled was the worst. We looked through assisted suicide programs because of her pain. Looking back I wish we were able to get approved for a right to life program but because of my hope that she'd be okay we delayed it and it only got worse. She was all I had for family. I have no siblings or dad or grandparents. When she died I was lying in her hospital bed with her and tried to sing her favorite songs but kept sobbing. Then that morning around 3 she passed away. And that drive home at 5am was the most surreal strange experience I've ever had.
Stay strong ❤️
oh dear, I hope you're in a better place in your life today and have built a family 🤗
Made me teared up but truly inspiring.
I think about death a lot. Mum just recovered from cancer so this issue is really close to my heart. All of you guys are really brave and I wish I could give everyone of you a hug!
they are so so brave and their words rly made me think so much about life and then i wanna achieve more in life like living everyday like my last. tbh i lost my grandma two years ago and it was the first time i experience death from one of the most important people in my life. it felt like my world crashed and i cried so much even till today when i think about it ill still cry.
I don't cry easily and I teared up twice watching this. Amazingly filmed and edited, and really eyeopening questions and answers :")
Positive mindset even in their situation. Highly admirable.
So sad to see all of these folk facing death far too soon in their lives. I loved them all and wished I could make them all well again. The guy in white stole my heart. He is such a humble man, but his modesty makes him so very likeable. I would love to be his friend. He has such a beautiful soul and when his time eventually arrives for him to depart this life, I’m sure he will go straight to Heaven, a wish I would like for all the other folk in this video. Much love to them All.🙏❤️🙏
I cried so much. Thanks so much for putting up a very important conversation we as humans avoid.
My grandmother passed away recently, I lost her to heart disease and lost my grandpa 5 years ago to 3 cancers. I am always terrified of the idea of me getting cancer really young, and have terrible anxiety. After my grandmother had passed, I have been trying hard to love healthy.
So humbling to listen to each and everyone as they go thru the process of their life. I lost my dad a year and a half ago, I think of him everyday. I think that’s what he would have liked, that we would never forget how much We loved and appreciated him.
Life is too short and I'm grateful to those brave hearts who does not hesitate to share their destinies beautifully. I lost my grandmother years ago and I didn't attend her funeral as I was studying in a place far away from home. On the eve of her death she called me up, says a prayer and blessed me only to know that she have passed away the following morning. I cried alone biting my blankets to not let anyone hears but ya it was a beautiful memory to remember at the end of the day. Now my parents are older with many physical problems but I have to stay positive and living life day to day.
Thank you all for sharing, it makes my heart lighter and reminding me everyone have to die someday. 😊😇
I went through the same situation as you about not being able to attend my grandmother's funeral due to studying. I cried alone in my bed as well as I have two other roommates. Somehow I felt my grandmother comforting me that night that it's okay.
@@jammietiong6814 I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. She was definitely there comforting you. Sending healing energy your way 💕
Wow.
Thank you guys for making such amazingly deep videos, and thank you to the participants for sharing so deeply and openly
Wishing these wonderful people joy and peace
Teared the whole time. Love how long this vid is ...
It's so refreshing and downright way to open up a truthful conversation with our family and friends instead of keeping it a secret to the last minute. That way it keeps people informed. I've witnessed several death in my journey and the only optimistic view I have is to look back at life that I live my life with no regrets. Being kind to people and animals. Preparing for our final destination is not looking back at what we have achieved or accumulated but what kind of legacy we leave behind for our children and friends. Being kind, compassionate, forgiving, and generous throughout your own personal life journey will be the answer. We should be able to embrace death when the time comes.
Thank you for sharing their stories
This is beautiful. Thank you for this video.
Thank you for spreading cancer awareness. All of you are doing God's work.
Applaud everyone of them for their courage in their honest sharing - this will encourage many others in their darkest hour that there can be peace in the midst of sorrow. God bless!
16:28
That's what my mom said to me.
She's has not passed yet, but I am still unable to get over the fact that she will die before me.
Honestly, this is quite a hard request and I keep thinking about her funeral despite it not happening anytime soon.
Please, don't tell your children that you are going to die. It will make them worry a lot and stress over it.
I get what she is trying to say, but it can really impact your loved ones.
The best channel ever. Thanks
Best video of the day! They have so much to offer. Life lessons at its very best. You are what you think, I am grateful for this channel bringing so much wisdom content to all of us.
They are such lovely people.
This episode is the truest of them all and something which i can relate to having lost many family members to the big C
😔
All the love fam
These people for me have taught me a lot about the value of a day, or time in general. And how one's life can change at any given moment.
God bless each and every one. Thank you for sharing your story, thoughts and feelings.
I cried with the lady who had to lie for her mom :(((
Thank you for making this video, to fight the stigma behind terminal illness and dying.
good episode. thanks for the excellent content.
Cried my eyes out....
All of them are such strong and positive individuals. I really wish them all the best and luck from the bottom of my heart for the rest of their precious lives. I hope they live a fulfilling life. 🍀
My mother also had stage 4 cancer but she survived yet now 10 years later it has relapsed and this time the cancer is much stronger and at more places. However, I think that the most difficult is paying for good and high quality cancer treatment. Right now for the relapse she has went through 6 courses of Chemo with little effect and the doctor recommends this new drug but it's $10,000 per month which is more than 3 times our gross household income. What makes it worse is that very little insurances will cover a recovered cancer patients so now we can't even depend on insurance.
Let's pray for all of them 🙏🏻❤️
this video has taught me a lot about my existence and im thankful these people are here to tell the whole world about what they are going through. all the positive and wise words they said has encouraged me to do things that will benefit other people and also to myself.
Thanks for the great videos! May I suggest a touchy sensitive topic - extramarital affairs?
i want to give all of them a hug
SO INSPIRATIONAL !!!
my grandpa passed away June 6 , 2019. cried watching this , I really miss him
Love the older man in blue...so strong.
"you/your family deserve it” is something you shouldn't say to a terminally I'll person, even if you think that they “deserve it”
I wish people will come forward and help other people regardless whether they are not related or friends! Help is at hand 👏👌
The guy with the Stoma, just wants to be remembered as being helpful. He will surely get his wish. His positive and calm attitude shown in this video will no doubt help many. Good luck to all
heartwarming stories :"(
My heart really goes out to them
i have no tears left
I feel so touched watching this video really. The two ladies look so amazing and they’re glowing. They’re ageing so well so beautifully and I mean it in a good way. If I didn’t see them in these videos I wouldn’t believe they’re cancer patients. The guy in white makes me feel really sad that he’s unable to do a lot of things because of his sickness. But then again I believe God is fair, because he’s unable to do many things he’s been made exempted from many difficult challenges that we ‘normal people’ face in life, like in our career, relationship, marriage, materials etc. These things that bother me on a daily basis look so minimal and meaningless now. Actually everyone that appears in this video all inspired me in some ways, especially how I see lives. I would like to wish them all the best, every journey will come to an end and while the end might appear a little bit closer to them already, I hope they can spend their remaining days meaningfully, filling with joy. God bless.
This episode makes me rethink about life.
I cried throughout this... When the old man said his wife didn't even want to leave the house without him after his diagnosis, because she was scared he would be gone when she came back and she would never see him again, just broke me. I imagine I'd feel the same way if my husband was diagnosed with a terminal illness. So many touching and heartbreaking stories.
Can ask meh section is always send me crying. Are you guys hiring? I wanna work with the team. Worth it.
sometimes i wish i could give my life to those who are dying young so they can do more with it than what i am doing rn. i am a failure to my mother yet these beautiful people who make their families proud are so sick :(
good luck and stay strong !!!
My mom had passed away due to a 4th stage pancreatic cancer, it spread throughout her body, her intestine, her lungs, lymph nodes.. etc, and had a stoma bag permanently. Doctor told her she have few months to live yet she lived for 2 years strongly. I was relatively young when I found out about her sickness but do not know a lot information about it, thinking she would survive because my mom is really healthy. I was really upset the moment she passed away and since 7 years of her passing, watching this video still made me teary because I didn't know she was suffering so much while she was having her chemotherapy sessions. I wish I could contribute much much more when she is alive.
I have a rare autoimmune disorder called ITP. Rarely enough, my identical twin sister also has ITP . She just went through her doses of chemotherapy in August
I am not really scared about my life tbh. But I am always so worried for her.
I don't wanna die but I also know that there's no treatment for this disorder.
I sometimes have no will to live anymore. Its just too much to take sometimes.
I feel like not going for my check ups, neither taking medicines, rather doing anything for that matter.
But I know I can't give up. I can't do that to my parents or to myself.
I hope anybody going through similar problems gets to heal.
It is not easy to deal with, I know.
But you gotta do what you gotta do.
Be strong! You can do it for yourself and your twin! 👍💪❤️
25:34 👍🏽 I like wat she said.
I feel like the time we’re in everyone needs to take this genuinely
thank you for sharing,
♥️♥️♥️♥️ stay positive , stay safe , stay strong , keep praying
I cried OMG
