Rest in peace legend no one has forgot about you.
Just watching this pretty legendary video on the day he died. What a character he was. RIP.
Xehanort11 Same. He’s cracking me up through my profound sadness. Only Dan could do that.
Same today is a sad day!
I miss him too x
Im so sad that he is gone. Im crying as I watch this video. He was such a strong soul. May you rest in peace. You were such a fortitude of positivity. When encountering difficulties i always rememer your words" dont give up dont give in." I will always hold on to that because it gives me hope. You will never be forgotten.
What a wonderful human being Dan Thomas was-! He inspired me to want to live-!! We will always love you "PeeWeeToms"....!
💜💜💜
🙏🙏🙏
Dan, you're STILL making people smile. Shine brightly on the rest of us during our short stays on earth. 💜💜💜
Rest In Peace, Dan... 😞
NRGDrank God Bless his family🙏🏼
RIP Dan you are free now✨💫
He will live in our hearts now. It's up to us.
Pray for a miracle guys!! With God we can accomplish anything!!! 👼🏼🎷🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Still in prayers sep now jan x
RIP. You did make a difference. Fly High.
The line that really got me was when he said "If I live for 10 weeks, or 10 years, it makes no difference, because I tried."
I was a real-time viewer. He was so funny, and gone way too soon. I hope Becca, and his family are doing well. Just sending some love, and a shout out in Dan's memory.
Aww that is so sweet. I couldn't forget him either and he can still bring tears to my eyes even now x I'm sure these messages after all this time will be very comforting for his wife and family.
I still miss you Daniel, I was privileged to follow you on your journey, you were so inspiring and fearless and at the same time powerless against that great bastard “cancer”.
RIP you will never be forgotten by me and I believe many others ❤️🌹🙂
"Look at my scar. Look at it SHINE." You're fantastic. You made me laugh and cry in the same video. This will really resonate.
Nosy Hausfrau I felt that too...mixed emotions. RIP Dan x
Dan, it's been 5 years since you left us. I was thinking about you and looked you up and started binge watching your videos. You are still missed!❤🙏
This is how I will remember him. I’m glad he documented as much as he did.
Still watch some of these 5 years later 😢
Still watch occasionally
nice @@jamesedwards5925
Now Dan knows all the secrets of the universe.
He sure as heck does! 😜
He sure does 💓
What a beautiful response
Eli Barbie, your abuse of the ellipsis is comical. Your heathen views are sad. But I'm a Republican and will fight for your right to write and think as you like.
Eli Barbie, "People who believe in the afterlife must be committed." Spoken like a true marxist, socialist, liberal lunatic.
He's hiding his pain, anger and fear through his humor. This actually makes me incredibly sad. Yes, he's funny, but his eyes tell the story for him.
I hate this happens to people in this world.
Ann Williams it took all his defences until there was only the stark reality and nothing else to hide behind. Fuck cancer!!! I miss you Dan so many of us miss you. I’m so glad you had the forethought to leave these videos behind. However it’s just so surreal. I have been here from the very very start and literally felt like a family member, as I was reintroduced to another layer of Dan each video that was uploaded until it was stripped bare, the core of you was so precious, even when you were so ill, the day at the zoo you just radiated happiness. I just can’t believe that there is something so evil on this earth that it can take the Dan from that day and 12 days later you were gone. I know you were so happy with Becky and from the bottom of my heart I am so so grateful that you were able to have something beautiful to hold on to to take with you to give you some peace. You didn’t deserve to die this way dan. There is a big hole of Dan space that I don’t know if anything will ever be able to fill. Nor should it. Xx
Yes Dan was in physical pain....Dan....holding on to this pain...showing who ever visted PEEWEETOMS....fing loads....and everyone of those people all over the world ....were searching ...something to relate to...we dont own this pain......We are all free........Dan..had a voice...I for one have listerned...and seen love...love through pain...love to his new wife.....who has and will always have the love off a husband that new and understood UNCONDITIONAL LOVE....
Dan just gave that knocked reality back in my brain...(was starting to self-harm....)....different self abuse....but still a fucked up programing in my brain.....Found the emapthic cell...which is authentic / truth / love....Hey..for me....I have seen a real family...A family off Thomas....Dan lived his life with conviction and truth......xxxx
PearlPerlita Venegas The type of cancer he had was really rare especially at his age, and the biggest symptom of shingles (which is more common) is a rash/lump on you’re back. So it’s understandable
@@bree-arnaharris2437 your words for him are beautiful. 💓
ScrappyDoo Gal Thankyou, they were from the heart, I was very emotional writing that, literally felt like I was grieving for a close friend or family member, riding the rollercoaster of emotions in those first few days, I was stunned at how affected I was in the real world by dans story and his loss. Unfortunately I’m still in that same head space, I havnt been able to visit any of dans videos since then, because 2 days after dan died , my father died suddenly and my world shifted it’s axis. Loss is fucked. Medical mistakes and negligence are so cruel on top o it all. All the anger and frustration is still there along with despair. It’s so true when they say that grief is just love with no where to go.
Still watching Daniel from across the pond (Michigan, USA) to keep me humble. Love this guy and I’ve never even met him. Miss you Dan! RIP
I've been rewatching them. They remind me to have a good attitude and don't miss out on life. RIP
Rest in Peace Dan, you helped the world more than you know ❤
What a sweet, funny spirit. Heaven longed for him. He is in no pain now. My prayers for his loved ones.
I had to revisit the start of this journey, Dan you have given new meaning to my life, I pray for you daily and you are always in my thoughts. I THANK YOU DAN, an inspiration to all.
Found Dan back in my feed today. Missing Dan, his optimism, and his humor. Rest in Power Dan.
So sad! I’ve just came across this blog accidentally. The malpractice involved in most cancer diagnosis and treatments is mind blowing. If resources wasted on treatments could be converted on prevention and if doctors believe their patients’ symptoms instead of downplaying them, we could have avoided so many deaths. Hope his family can get solace in how well he fought the battle.
Rest in peace beautiful man. Thank you for changing my outlook on life. I am eternally grateful. Let your inspiring legacy thrive. Tata, goodbye. Xxxxx
Ive only just found this guy and that breaks my heart. Dan you are so...words cant describe it. Your attitude and ability to keep a smile on your face through this is commendable. I love this video. I hope youre at peace now. Pain free. You have a beautiful soul and love to your family. Im just sorry I only found you now. Two years late. The fact you documented so much to help other people is incredible. Its not how much time you have but how you use it rings true although you deserved much more time.
Sometimes bad things just happen to good people. I hope it all gets better for you in the end ❤
I really do as well it all sucks :(
Its so sad seeing him now and seeing him in his newest video :/
I know. Heartbreaking I will say
I miss him so much!
truly heart breaking i never saw thice till maybe a week ago and his latest vid with is brother has me near in tears how sick he is
I pray and hope he had excepted Jesus as he’s savior 🙏🏻🧡
Yeah it sucks what cancer can do to a person like him and anyone else
R.I.P dude, we will never give up and never give in. You won my friend.
Darn he's good! He is turning his anger into a great informative video! He got dealt a dreadful hand in life. I feel so bad he went through all he did.
I just saw your video of you and your mum in the car after being told that your cancer is inoperable.
I watched it and was deeply touched, for many reasons.
So I’ve subscribed, and am binge watching all of your videos to learn your entire story.
Thank you for being so unselfish and documenting your cancer. My thoughts are with you.
You were so goofy. You really learned and got so much better. It was an honor to even follow a small part of your journey. Rest in peace.
As this is around the anniversary of his death, I'm watching his videos again. He was so amazing and will never be forgotten.
@Deighton111 thanks. He's actually my medical service dog. U should watch his funeral. It's so well done how they did it. Well planned out.
How I wish I could have known you. Your humor mixed with the raw reality... gracious. What a man. 💗
You did it Dan! Your light will shine for the eternities! Gonna miss you here on earth! Hope to meet you in heaven! You shining light you! ♡
It's crazy the difference between then and now...
Yeah.. :(
It's so fucking sad 🙁
Yh just watched the video, It's quite depressing seeing him like this now
@@ramonflederus6657 yeah.. it's quite hard to process. Especially if you watch the video of him getting married like a week ago, looking so happy and completely different to his most recent video.
ASickMind omg I’m here too, 2am in the morning & I’m watching all his old videos ;-(
Dan passed away this afternoon 😢😔RIP brother we love you!
He is out of his earthly pain now.The mental pain and the physical pain too.I lost a brother the same way and sometimes I wonder who has It worse,the one who dies or the loved ones who are left to make sense out of it.My brother died 3 years to the day of his diagnosis and he was more worried about us than himself.I love you Tim and Dan too.P.S.my Brother was only 49.
It's us who love them worst off for losing them. They though have themselves and us too. Watching over us, though we can't watch them. But in our hearts if we have them. We, are forever one with them. Here and hereafter. :) Once born, your story is eternal if you lived or even tried living well. The story never stops here. It only begins. :) But in a realm we can only know once we leave here too. And we all definitely will leave here. Sorry for your loss.
Omg he was so hilarious, funny, and extremely handsome!!!!! What a character he was. He should've been a stand up comedian. May you rest in paradise young man. I'm sure you are making jokes in heaven😘😘. Sleep easy and tight sweet angel.
Rest in peace you precious human
Definitely not a funny topic and im so sorry about your cancer but you are funny and get me giggling. Youve got a great attitude. Stay strong! 💓
Thank you, I tried to make it a bit more fun than most though :)
I agree. First time I've watched this video and I cracked up. ❤
He made me laugh here. But it’s so sad too as he’s reached the end.
@@peeweetoms this was when i first started following you and you have given me such a gift by sharing your journey rip dear warrior xo
@@peeweetoms Bye 😭
Keep fighting!! You are making a difference, even though you may not know it. Enjoy your life, all of it!! Praying for you!
I never had the courage nor braveness to comment before:after rewatching some of Daniels vlogs tonight (which I often do and will do for as long as they're on TH-cam) I felt compelled to. Dan,beautiful soul thankyou for all you shared with us,your light may have gone here on earth but I am so damn sure you're shining bright in the skies above us,guiding your loved ones and having one hell of a time in heaven.Rest in Peace.Much love to all of your family and friends
What a tender soul. So much positivity. So sad he’s gone.
A beautiful guy at peace, RIP Daniel...you have inspired so many with your bravery and strength!
You only passed yesterday and I find myself binge watching all your older videos.I'm going to miss you so much.😢
Sudden or unexplained weight loss is an immediate red flag for potential serious pathology, how the doctors looked beyond this is astonishing.
MY. THOUGHT. EXACTLY.
100%
This is how my father knew he was very ill. He lost 40 pounds in just a few months for no reason. The doctors tried to dismiss him and he got angry and demanded testing. He had pancreatic cancer. He would have been dead before they figured it out if he did not push back right away. It still took him quickly, but we got an extra year with him because he was such a fighter.
Daniel, today is the first day I had ever seen you. You are very hilarious. You are a blessed to many people even after you are gone. You fought the good fight and never gave up. Today is my 26 wedding anniversary 💕 My husband Darrell passed away 8 months ago of stomach cancer. They took 3/4 of his out. He was 6'2 he lost all his weight over time . He went from 201 to 145. He was finally able to get TPN and went back up to 184 . All along have chemo every three weeks. The Doctors told him 18 mos at the most. He lived over 4 years. Dont give up. He wanted to live for me and Logan our grandson we have been raising together. He was 3 and now he is 18. Darrell was so funny like Daniel and on a day when I should be sad Daniel was there for me today and of course my Lord Jesus. Darrell loved the Lord and pointed everyone to Him. Before we knew Darrell had cancer. satan was telling me look what God is doing to your husband. I pointed at Darrell and said "You have been diagnosed with Eternal Life " He made hat, tee-shirts with that and John 3:16 on them. and gave them away to anyone who wanted one . Getting the word out was his calling. satan can't touch that. Praise God that you have been diagnosed with Eternal Life 🙏
Life is so unfair... I'm here watching your videos, going through your pain, your anger, the injustice and I know how this will end but anyway I have hope you are resting now. You suffer too much, you didn't deserve it, nobody does. You will be in my thoughts Dan. If someday I have to deal with something like this like you did, you are my mentor. Rest in Peace 😔
Laughter and tears in the same video ..you should go into theater mate! Sending you all the good love and hugs...keep fighting ❤️
Continued prayers for you, Daniel . I came across your channel on my feed and I subscribed to your channel. I am inspired by your positive nature and thank you for sharing your journey with us all 🙏🏽
Thank you so much :)
Came back to watch your early video after watching you for months. You missed your calling as a stage actor, for sure. You have changed a lot over the months. Thank you for all your videos and your efforts to make a difference. We love you.
Rest in peace you wonderful man! See you on the other side!
Dan you have made a massive difference and opened people's hearts and outlook on life 💗 thank u for taking the time to make utube, your beyond amazing
Omg I can’t even, he is so awesome! Bless him in the highest place ever 👼
Wherever he is in the multiverse rn, he knows we still love n support this donny g from beyond the grave. Consciousness has no end.
Rest In Peace. You helped me greatly in my battle with advanced cancer. Now they just diagnosed me with an egg sized brain tumor. You are still helping me. God Bless you and your whole family.
I hope you are still fighting the good fight!
God bless you and keep you safe 🙏🙏🙏😔
I'm writing this in hopes you're still fighting. You're in my thoughts.
You could win an academy award, you are so funny! I have been re-watching your videos lately. Praying for you!
Rest in Paradise LEGEND! I will keep you in my heart forever.🙏🏽❤️😭
I shouldn't be this happy and amused watching this, but his positive energy is contagious.
I never realized how ridiculously entertaining it is to say Daniel in a comically posh British accent. I must now befriend a Daniel. Seriously, fantastic video about a rather depressing topic. I wish I had practical advice, but all I’ve got are prayers and good thoughts. I’ll happily watch your videos and join you virtually in your journey.
Its always fun to say any word in any accent, lol I love being over the top and silly! Thank you for joining the journey and the discussion :)
PeeWeeToms I hope this journey ends on a positive note with you no longer having Cancer and being fully recovered (forever) x
Will miss watching you Dan. You always brightened up my day. RIP.
You are such and inspirering soul! I wish you all the best. Keep your good spirit up!
Thank you so much :) I am trying :)
I keep re-watching this. THIS is hilarious. So well done. But I'm also so sorry this is happening to you. I assure you you've helped the greater good by bringing meaning to so many lives.
The energy this man had was unlike any other... we lived on opposite sides of the world but even at his worst health he put out some of the most positive and uplifting content I’ve ever seen really put stuff into perspective to understand how no matter how bad you think it is there is always someone who cares I will greatly miss the contagious energy.. just felt wrong to put this on any other video just out of respect... Ta-ta buh bye Dan... you will forever be missed ❤️
Daniel, your story telling about your horrific situation was hilarious . God bless you ✝️.
You are a true fighter, keep it up! And sometimes Humor is the only thing that keeps you sane so never apologise for that! I am crossing my fingers that you find the answers you are looking for. Do look into trials, there are so many and some can even be extended outside the indications.
If Shakespeare would be alive, he would write a drama about You , and You would be the main star in it on the stage.:Talented Sweet Boy for life, congrats to your Mother!
Congrats to his mother???
Popped back in for a visit tonight Dan, wish you could share some of your experiences since you left. Shine on you crazy Diamond. 💎
Just an ordinary guy trying to make sense of an awful situation. Such a shame that he has passed but he is continuing to help and comfort others as well as making us smile with his energy and impressions. Thanks Dan 🙏
What an Absolute LEGEND he was... 💛 💛He was so BRAVE , FUNNY full of LIFE & so Happy on his Wedding Day...RIP
I've been following your videos for a bit now. Dan - only YOU could take such a morbid topic and make it so comical. All the best Dan! Keep on keeping on!
I LOVE this video. Thank you for leaving this little gem to live on forever
Just watched your latest video posted today. You’ve made a difference. Wishing you peace and love.
Heartbreaking, frustrating & hilarious. Very unique youtube cancer story. Thanks for sharing 💜
Thank you :)
I've just been watching your videos after seeing your story on the stand up to Cancer page. Rest in peace. You were an inspiration. This video is such a lovely memory for your family as you are so positive and funny! Much love xxx
You reminded me of Dumbledore the way you were talking in the very beginning!! I hope everyone realizes he is from Harry Potter haha
I may do a video as dumbledore lol
PeeWeeToms yassssss!!!!!!
Shall I get a wig to lol
PeeWeeToms I think yes
I felt so guilty watching this because I couldn't help but chuckle with how silly you were being! Thank you for sharing your journey, any information or experiences you share will help someone with this someday! I am so sorry that you're going through this!!
Hilariously funny, hahahaha I’m sitting here laughing at Dan’s story telling😂😂😂😂 This video should be shown at Dan’s memorial Tribute. This is our Dan🏆
I can’t stop crying. This is so sad. I just saw this on my feed today 12/28/24. RIP Dan, beautiful brave soul. ❤ The doctors failed him. So sorry this happened to him. He has a great sense of humor, despite everything.❤
Really missing your presence lately, for some reason. Thanks for sharing your story with us all, right up until you couldn't anymore.
Miss you, Dan. Thank you for everything my friend. 🌠🌻❤
I’m finding myself watching all your videos again, because your last vlog is just heartbreaking & I keep checking for an update. You are so very brave & I pray your not in pain Dan.
It says so much about you that while explaining your cancer story you can make others giggle... I never thought that was possible to watch something like this and break a smile, feels so strange lol. I did want to say that you’re incredible and clearly so authentic. Thank you for having the courage to put something so personal out there just in hopes of educating and trying to make the world better. Sending love from Canada.
I had cancer , so did my dad. we survived. my mom had cancer and passed away. I hate cancer. They say 1 out of every 2 people in the world will get cancer, and I believe it. These are very hard to watch knowing his outucome. He was very brave and he was a great man. RIP Dan
I know someones already said it but you're quite the entertainer. I wish I could have known you personally, you're such a light!
Aw Dan Your still making me laugh so much, your humour was amazing and those voices you pull off 😂 you should have been on broadway boi! *Watching these videos makes me feel like you’re still here, I’m not ready to let go of you yet Dan* 💕
He was such a beautiful man. If Dan's mum, wife and dad read this just want you to know that when my children are old enough I will get them to watch your son's/ husbands videos to demonstrate how precious life is. He was so brave and also so graceful accepting his fate in the end. I will always keep coming back to this channel as a reminder of how precious our lives are and how delicately we should treat one another. I hope you will always be proud of your husband and son. I will never forgot him x
Still miss watching you. Hope you & Emily are having a ball up there xx
such sumptuous tones :) Miss your humour and love of live. Rest in peace. Love always.
The first videos I have started watching have broken my heart, and i'm so sorry this is happening. Fingers crossed The cancer centers here in America get in touch with you quickly! Anyway, while illness isn't a fun thing ( I have a pretty bad one myself) It's OK to make it so because it can take it's toll.
Just found this channel today. HUGS and blessings for ALL. I'm so sorry to hear you are gone. GOD bless your family and ALL that were blessed by knowing you. ❤
Rest in peace.. No more pain brother!
Dan this made me smile you have such good energy and to be able to talk about cancer the way you do is pretty bloody amazing! Stay strong, I wish I could be your friend ! Big love to you mate
Daniel, well one of your reasons for starting this vlog is well and truly achieved: you are seriously freaking funny!!! Oh my god, such a good story teller!!!! Your face recalling the surgery without anaesthetic 👌😂💪 Okay, I’m off to watch some more of your vlogs xx💜
Been following you Dan for a couple of weeks now......totally in awe of your ability to speak so openly about such a difficult topic as death and cancer. I hope you don’t mind but you are on my prayer list.
DAN YOU SHOULD HAVE PURSUED A CAREER IN THEATRE OR TELEVISION YOUR A BORN ENTERTAINER ⭐️SO FUNNY BUT HEARTBREAKINGLY SAD 💦
Thank you :)
@@peeweetoms Rest in peace Dan.
@@VraserX oh yeah cuz hes gonna respond to you from his grave you moron
David Chira Jesus Christ, he just wanted to say Rest In Peace to a beloved person 😐
@@davidgabriel5125 your a heartless moron
Watched this video again. Miss you Dan. Only you could turn such a subject into humor. I hope you are well wherever you are - all the best!
When you lost so much weight suddenly they should have realized how serious it was. I don't understand at all! Those doctors should be sued for negligence.
dude this is the most important youtube channel ive seen and you are the best youtuber ive seen. things will be better pal. things will be better
I agree with some other commenters - you are hilarious even through such a tough video topic. I felt myself giggling at you but I felt badly for laughing. You’re quite a character!
❤️ .. xo
Brilliantly Spoken. I love how you presented . Thank You for laughter here. Laughter is what helps me get through hard times. What a Gift You Had !!
Imma download this if I may.
( I mean no disrespect, by the laughter he provided)
Why is this man not famous? He has such star quality. Where are the damn talent scouts?
.
You were amazing. And your mission lives on. One cancer patient to another.
