- I'M DYING BUT I'M STILL GOING TO FIGHT!
Please don't pity me, having terminal cancer is a fight, I knew it would be all along! I am going to do an explainer style video tomorrow to show you all what is happening, what has happened to me, it may surprise some of you I am losing my hearing, sight and some other functions.
My mum has quit her job to take care of me, things happen fast with cancer some times and you have to be prepared for every eventuality!
I can't believe how much support people have given me, the love and it just spurs me on more to live!
Always have fun! Always be there for people!
PS THAT LEGEND JC Has Leukemia, which sucks!

I have a Go Fund Me setup if you would like to support me get research done into this type of cancer (Pleomorphic Sarcomatoid Carcinoma and Primary Cutaneous CarcinoSarcoma) with the hope that we can eventually find the best treatment, as there are very limited / no options left now, I have already started passing on samples, medical files and reports to specialists worldwide. The next step is to get my DNA Sequenced, so as specialist medical researchers can see if we can find the needle in the haystack to treat this.
Not everyone can get the same type of treatment, not everyone is able to have chemo, radiotherapy, immunotherapy and the likes. I am one of those with a rare form of cancer that can't be treated by conventional means.
There is litterally no research into this type so it's important to me, to document everything and record it all, so that if something can be done and someone spots it, we have that added bonus!

Your mom is just so lovely! I don't pity you Dan, I rather admire you for being able to handle things the way you do. 🙊✨ We are all gonna die one day, and most of us have no idea how much time we've got here. You do have, so you can make the most of each given day. 🌄
Norahungary excellent point
Well said and I totally agree :)
Yes.... I agree
Norahungary beautifully said.
I love how this was worded💖
I lost my dad to pancreatic cancer. He faced it like you are doing. He said he was gonna fight until they told him there was nothing else they could do. Love and miss you dad.
Billy Baggett
I’m sorry for your loss Billy. God bless you.
❤️
Love your mother❤️ She such an amazing woman. Dan you have a beautiful family support system 💪
It’s not pity. It’s the gift of compassion and empathy. It’s peoples way of coping with another’s sad and tragic happenings. Kind and loving people need to express themselves as a release for the emotions they are feeling when a fellow person is in a terrible way.😊
Amy Peterson So true Amy!! I so agree!!
Wise and true Amy
I worry about your sweet mum. She’s so lovely and I pray for her strength. I see she left her job and I know that was an easy decision for her. Take good care of each other. Life is precious. Love you.
Emily Everett your lovely mam god bless her always xx
I pray for you. We got 4 days with my Dad and his sarcoma, from diagnosis to his passing. He was able to talk to us, until the last day. Don't hesitate if you are going to do treatment. Start today!!!! They aren't joking about downhill fast. Prayers for your family and your decisions.
simply lou they don't scan properly, they only scan the major areas ... they missed 4/5 tumors in my mum including one that was over 30cm! She was going every 3 months for scans aswell. It's terrible and it could save lives x
@@gabrielsnotdead6912 Yeah we have the technology to at least find them fast, but people who are using this "high tec" are dumb.
Discovering Dan’s channel has me choked up. Not out of pity, but in admiration for how hard he fought. This was a person made out of pure fiery spirit, and I greatly look up to him. He will be on my mind for a very long time.
It's not pity, but sadness. It's the people we leave behind that have to deal with the loss. I love your fight! Hugs and kisses!
Those of us who have lost loved ones to cancer have a level of compassion not pity for you.I applaud your resolve to fight as there is always hope. Praying all goes well on your holiday. I had to chuckle at the "stinky" banter between you and your dad while your mom was arranging the holiday on the phone. May God bless you with a good day.
I admire your strength. We’re here for you.
There are tears...not of pity but of love for a young man I didn't even know a couple of months ago, who lives thousands of miles, yet through the miracle of you tube you have unselfishly let us share your life and I feel you are a friend (in my mind)! You are a very, very special man! I am about your mom's age, I never had children, but I couldn't imagine having a son that I would not be more proud of! It says volumes of your parents, how they raised such a beautiful, strong, loving son! Stay strong, don't give up and you are constantly in my prayers!
Hey,
I can't stop thinking about you and I mentioned you yesterday and today, I just can't tell you how emotional I am so I can't imagine how you're feeling 🙈👀😭👌 x
It’s not pity that we are feeling for you Dan, it’s love , lots of it xx
I am by your side, even though I am a stranger from far away. I promise not to pity you, but to continue to pray for you and your dear mum and your family.
I'm watching all the time until it's 2 pm to watch your video. Thank God I see you again son. I can not stop thinking about you. I want you to know that we are all praying for you. You are in my heart, my dear Dan. Do not faint son is still fighting like a great warrior. God bless you Dan 👐
Mirla Hernandez There's no God you cretin.
Mirla Hernandez amen 💞
abadplanner1 Negativity and name calling of this level s unnecessary at this time, even if one is a non beluever.I am a firm believer in an individual's right to believe what they want if it gets them through the day. Period. End of story. Neither you nor I live in their head.
+abadplanner1 keep your unbelief to yourself. Dan knows that there's a God.
abadplanner1 That is your opinion, and I respect it because that is your way of thinking. If you do not believe in God then believe in what you want, do what you want. It's your way of thinking, not mine. You are not forced to believe in anything but you want it. What I do not understand is your purpose to be this way. In my heart only I have love, compassion, faith, hope. There is not a bit where hate can inhabit. I live loving everyone around me. My time is limited on earth, and as long as I have life I will continue loving, respecting, and giving my full support to all those who need it. We all think different, we feel different. As I believe in my God and will continue believing in my God, I will do it until the last breath of my life. LOVE YOU GOD , MY GOD 👐❤
No pity beautiful soul. None! However, we are all heartbroken because we adore you Dan. You keep fighting because you’re a born WARRIOR! Love you. 💪🏽🤛🏽👊🏽⚔️🛡⚔️🛡❤️❤️❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽⚔️🛡⚔️❌⭕️❌⭕️
No pity Dan but been thinking of you a lot. Fight it with everything you got! Your parents are ace.
Dan my friends here in the hospital ( hand therapy )they send you a message, they said keep fighting hard they know you my friend. I should them your videos. They from Russian, Ghuyana, Panama and Philippines. PLEASE NEVER GIVE UP ❤. WE LOVE YOU A LOT DAN ❤❤❤❤
I am going for a physical this week. Thank you Daniel. ♥️♥️♥️🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Keep fighting! We will keep praying!!❤❤

*Amen!*
@@KaranaLovesMusic Prayers never works.
@@pd5156 *We're all entitleð to our own opinion, so it's all gooð. We just have ðifferent beliefs, that's all. Have a great ðay!* 🤗😘
I can’t watch this without crying, I know he’s such a positive gorgeous soul but that’s why it’s hard not to get emotional. It makes you think about life and how beautiful it is. All I can say is, thank you for this gorgeous documentary of your living days and how lucky the universe is for having you to inspire others ❤️
You'll have to forgive us all for being so down and miserable yesterday Dan. It was a big shock for us, but from today we will be upbeat and supportive, and cheer you on in your fight. You have a lovely family around you. Make the most of every day you have with them and keep smiling x
Dan I've never met you. But since watching you on this journey I can say I truly care and have love for you. Sounds so silly. But you've touched my heart all the way from Phoenix Arizona. ❤️
Please, please do as many memorable things as you can for you and your family. While you are up for it celebrate your birthday now, have a family Christmas now. I say this so those left will have a memory of these. My family members tend to leave right before a holiday because of this I will forever not enjoy Christmas.
Ugh, I think I'm babbling. We are all heartbroken over this and incredibly sad. You have touched so many, Daniel. I enjoy seeing your charismatic personality and humour shine through your vlogs.
Big hug for your mum and dad and your brothers. I know it's incredibly hard on them.
Much love and peace, my friend. xx
Gina Burlovich-Dicker Yes! You have said it all. Have holidays like Christmas and everything else now. Great. Go on holiday !! And fight! Yes. You are the winner, not the bitch. No pity, just admiration from your Webbie G Dan.
Enjoy your family time. I've been a hospice volunteer and one thing people dying always say is that they don't want to die alone. You are not alone, we will stay until the end.
April yes we will all be here with you on your journey dan 🤗
April hi what do you do in volunteering if you dont mind?
awwww 😔💕
Daniel empathy for you is not pity, it's human nature to care for one another.
God bless you, you are awesome.
Your braver than you think😊 prayers
You are so brave handsome! You've captured and tugged on so many heart's around the globe. 16 years in the U.S Marines and you are by far the bravest man I've ever seen. You're never alone. I speak for everyone New Yorker (yank) we're wrapping you in our embrace and love. 🗽💞🤗😘
Tell mum we all love her as well and bless her for being so brave for her son. This is hard to watch, sorry 😢
I have been checking the computer every 5 minutes waiting for your post! You are on my mind Dan! I’m so happy that you had contact with a specialist. You are so inspiring and you are definitely leaving your mark in the world . Keep fighting! 🇺🇸💕🇬🇧
P.S. I love the humor that you and your family continue to have. Lol
Dan your mum is such a sweetheart hahaha! I just found out about your channel yesterday, when you told the bad news. One of my family members got diagnosed with cancer about a month ago, so I understand how horrible this whole situation must be for you guys.
I just wanna say that you're a true hero. Your positivity, and the way you see life is so damm inspiring. Life is what we make out of it! Keep on firm and strong!
I couldn’t finish watching yesterday’s video. We’ve grown to love you and yesterday was just hard. Thank you for sharing with us. Enjoy your family and specially your mum!
How will we know how u are? Tell your mum or someone to let us know if u can't.. love u kid!! I get a biopsy on Friday to see what kind of cancer I have!!! Your not alone pal!!
You have a great mindset considering what you are going through. You truly are an inspiration to many of the people watching your videos, including myself. I really wish you the best of luck man.
I'm glad to see your all trying to stay positive. I've said it all to you Dan before but I'm not giving up on you. And for the record its a real pleasure to know you and an Honour to call you a friend.
Daniel, you are amazing.
Your attitude with this fight is what gives you the strength to fight until the end. Much love and blessings for you, and your family as well! Xoxo ❤ ❤
I hope you have the best two weeks everrr!! enjoy to the max Dan! you are such a brave and kind person for not only sharing your journey but also trying to get more research done in this area! Keep fighting, besides you are already beating the odds so remember that! Lots of love for you and your parents. Your mom and dad are very sweet and so strong! Take care and hugs
Dear Dan,
Words can not express to you how I feel. You're a good person. You're a kind person. You, unfortunately, are the type of person cancer loves. Horrid people never get it. I've worked in radiation oncology and never had an asshole patient. Most were kind, lovely, funny, amazing people. It's so hard to watch someone face their mortality. Its a time for reflection, a time of acceptance, and a time to thank your mother. It's a terrible thing to watch the most important person in your life decline. Your Mom loves you so much and I wish I knew how to reach out to her. Tell her how much you love her. Tell her all the things you have hidden away. She needs this as do you. Hold her hand. Tell her how grateful you are to have her. You have been lucky to have such an amazing woman supporting you. Much love,
Sue
I think your one AMAZING Young Man! I think your Mum and Dad are Awesome and so is Ben....and all of your family and Claire!! I have been praying for you and your family for a few months now...I will continue to pray for all of you....I do not pity you at all, your honesty and your including us in your best and hardest moments, your brave and kind and wanting to help others is the most selfless thing you can do..... I feel like we are an extension of your family....Go on your Holiday and Enjoy your time together!! When my brother, Mike had brain cancer his wish was for our whole family go to Florida....we all went, there were 14 of us in the immediate family with our kids....we stayed for 8 days and I would not take a million dollars for those days and memories....Praying for Peace and for making the decisions you have to make....God loves you and so do I and so many people!! God Bless You and Your Family!!
Praying for JC too!!
I would not expect anything less than you..you are an inspiration!! Timelines are BS..your life is yours!! Keep on my friend!! Sending hugs and love to you and your family!!
I'm from Glenn Julifer's channel!
Glenn has make a video about you, and him support you, me and glenn julifer's subscriber too!
Get well soon for you!
Love you and your family. Today's video touched me! I saw the spark in your eyes..which disappeared yesterday. No pity party... just heartfelt feelings. I'm so happy that you and all of the family are going away for a holiday ❤️ Dan, I'm very sincere when I've told you since the beginning that I'm praying. I do believe in miracles! Hold each other close❤️ Sending all my prayers and love to you! 🙏🏽🙏🏼
God bless you, Dan, and your family. I am actually happy for you because you have such a great attitude. The fact that you are just forgetting about everything for two weeks and going on holiday is awesome. Take things one day at a time and enjoy each day you have. I know a bit how it is because, even though I have never had cancer, I have battled life threatening conditions over the years. My doctors have told me that I am not supposed to be alive today. They told me that 14 years ago. I'm still here. We love you, Dan, and we wish you and your family all the best. I am still dealing with a lot of preexisting conditions and I take about 18 medications a day. However, my doctors, including my mental health therapists (all this has taken a toll on my mental health, have told me to stay active which I am. I am constantly trying to think of things to do and I do work part time plus I get Social Security Disability Income every month. I have come to accept that what I am dealing with will never go away and that's okay! My life is the way it is and I am dealing with it the best way I can.
He already passed away. Look at his recent vids
Hi Daniel, I have a lot of respect for you, keep up the fight hope you do enjoy your holiday, hugs to you x
Your bravery and positivity is totally inspiring and amazing and just so admirable!! Wishing you so much luck and a lovely holiday with your closest ones
You’re a beautiful human. I’ve just found your channel today and already you’re in my heart. Sending limitless love and light from the US.
We will worrie about you, cant help it. Your Mum is so sweet and beautiful. You and your family have won my heart and I will always pray for you all. 🙏❤💙💚💛💜
Donna Bisson absolutely fuck cancer
Not pity! I admire your honesty and strength mate 🙌🏼
I like your message we might be on the road to dying in a short time long time but we must fight.
Thank you for documenting and sharing with us stay strong, we're all rooting for ya.
Would you risk your life to save it? Big Question isn't it... I also have another question, tentacles or claws? I have a big debate going on about this at the moment! Answer below with both :)
PeeWeeToms the first question yes because it's better than not trying , and 2nd question, claws not tentacles , 😮, I wouldn't want to be dragged underwater by a lot of slimy tentacles , it makes me think of octopus or a giant squid😲
PeeWeeToms you can pin certain comments, I think, so they will be at the top
Yep, I have many times over...claws.
I think it is worth a shot.
Claws.
Horns or a tail ?
PeeWeeToms Yes, I would. Especially if they are saying you could decline in two weeks time.
Claws.
No pity. Admiration. No pity.
"or pain in the neck" haha! Your mum cracked me up. She's so cute :) You're both lucky to have each other!
and I loved how dan laughed and said"oh we're still joking, even in the shit" lol Love them
Praying and sending lots of love to you and your sweet lovely mom and family! You shall always be a Warrior in my eyes!
No pity, just love.. I just found youre channel.. and you are so calm, and strong. I believe in you!!
Thinking and caring for someone is not pity, just something that is missing so much in this world ,,empathy is getting to be so rare ..you my son's age so i know how i would feel if it was my son..so we care and that is that :)
Been thinking about you all day. :(
Fight with all the might that you have. You have such an inspiring attitude. I subscribed, so I will be watching your journey.
Good luck man, I have my fingers crossed for you! God bless
Two weeks my arse ... Keep fighting keep living.. Keep loving!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
You love can not hide the pain in your eyes from us! We see and we feel it..
You are so strong. Such a fighter. Your face is very refreshing. Sending you all my love and energy. Live your life to the fullest.
I changed my icon. I am Sheila and I’ve been following you for a couple months now. You are the my HERO! Have a blast on HOLIDAY❤️❤️ Yoour Mum is just wonderful. Please tell her she is inspirational really⭐️👏🏼
You are here. You are winning. A life line is a light of hope.
I don’t live far from you, if you ever get stuck, shout me! I’m absolutely serious. It’s not out of pity, I am a nice human, you’re a nice human.
Laura Fox that message is really sweet :) people be kind to eachother!
Very thoughtful and considerate! And I know you are sincere.

Hamza from Montreal

I hate cancer
Kim Bergin : Me too, I just found out that my beautiful cat has cancer, breaks my heart and it seams no one is immune! 😢🙏💕
Pat Rooney both my mum and mother in law both have cancer, it’s the 4th time my mum has had cancer and now is incurable, my mother in law has grade 4 colon rectile cancer, bone cancer and in her kidney every time she goes to the hospital they find more. Is there anything they can do for ur cat x

Brand new to your channel! Sending prayers and positive thoughts your way. Miracles do happen! Your family is so lovely! Stay strong! Thanks for sharing!
Never give up! You and your beautiful mom, and your family, are in my thoughts and prayers ❤
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 praying for you.
Dan, I hope you did not take my comment yesterday as pity. I am glad to see your mom smiling and that she was able to quit her job and spend as much time as she can with you ♥️
All the best to you Dan...you inspire me to live a better life. Thank you for being you.
You are such an amazing person. I'm so glad I met you here. My heart is with you always. Your reward for this pain will be more than you can ever imagine. ❤️
Stocking up on lots of great memories and laughter - a gift that will endure always! :-) Still praying for a miracle, Dan. P.S. Get your dad one of those Poo-pourri sprays! LOL!
We love you so much Dan🤗🙏
You are putting up a great fight Dan and we are praying for you that the Drs. will be able to help you! Stay strong!
Never stop the humor!!
You are a beautiful soul.
And you got a lot of people giving you support and love💝
Your Mother is a SAINT. I continue to keep you in my thoughts.

*WE* #DontGiveUpDontGiveIn
💪❤💪❤💪
I just found your channel and i cant belive it. You look so healthy, how is this even possible?! You are a beautiful person inside and out! Sending you lots of love from the other part of the Europe.
My heart is with you in this fight. Love to you from the states.
I hope you know people like me are still falling across your videos and going from not knowing you at all at the start, and after only a couple of minutes in, thinking about how legendary you were. Really thinking of you tonight - you're living on here, RIP.
I... I just realized... Why ppl don't just love each other beforecsomething like this is happening..?
Your view on this situation is absolutely brilliant. "Always keep fighting!"
I’m praying for you Dan. I’ve asked my friends and family to as well. Keep up the fight! I just adore your mum she’s fabulous! We will see you tomorrow ☀️❤️😊💪🏼
Where there’s life there’s always HOPE ❤️❤️❤️❤️ hang in there Dan! Look after you!!! please make sure you rest too as your body needs that to fight & heal. Love & thoughts with you and your wonderful mum, dad & your family xxx ps. I’ve had to face I can’t do the things I want to and used to be able to do a few years ago anymore, I’m bedbound 90% of the time and I can’t get the treatment I need but I do what I can and I try to stay as positive as possible.. xxx #DontgiveupDontgivein #Warrior #SuperDan
Keep the prayer chain going everyone. United in prayer from all areas of the world. Now it’s up to us and Gods will to see him through whatever is to come. Still praying and sending much love your way 💙💙💖💖
SimplyJanet god does not exist. Stop scorning people, it sickens me.
Your mom is super awesome, now I know where your strength comes from. Stay strong, continue being the amazing person that you are. Your always in my prayers 🙏🙏❤️🙏🙏
I don’t pity you. But I’ve cried and I’m sad because I like you so much. You’ve got such a strong attitude and determination to help others if you can’t help yourself. You’d be fun to hang out with. Thank you for sharing yourself and your journey. (And your Mum and Dad are so sweet!) Hope you have a wonderful holiday (vacation we call it here over the pond.)
The first video of yours I watched was your last one. I shared it as much as possible.
Have a good holiday everyone. 😊💖👍
Prayers for you and your family. Love the TaTa. Thanks for keeping.it in.
I was thinking the whole day about you. Sending all the positive energy to you!
Even though others have commented on here about not saying certain things to you, I think it's up to you to tell others what you don't want to hear about whatever it is. People on here, I believe, genuinely care about what happens to you and your family. I will still pray for God to do what only He can do, and I will still pray that love, forgiveness, and compassion wins, no matter what anyone else says. You are in my heart, on my mind and in my prayers.
Awesome mom!
I don't pity you, I admire the fight you have. Love that you are fighting this and enjoying whatever life you have! Bravo! Much love!
I'm so excited for you and your family!!! Alas you all NEED to have a wonderful Holiday together! Please have a fabulous time! Much love to you and your family!
Keep on fighting. Don't believe everything a doctor tells you
Dan, everything you said may be true. But you're still here now. As are we all. Agsin, not comparing, but I've been bedridden for years now, never leave home, each day could be my last. Got sick at 32, wear a full face respirator at this point. My marriage is in the toilet, and I'm raising 2 girls. JESUS is the reason I get up, why I do any good, why my heart still hopes and sings. If someone is throwing you a lifeline, talk to Him about it. If you feel or are led to risk it, go balls out with a strong heart, believing God will lead you out. You are NOT alone. Every day, I am NOT alone. Lean not on your own understanding. Does that ring a bell? It's scripture. I'll keep praying for you. Many people are. You have a beautiful family. Hold your mother close. She is precious. I lost mine 2 years ago, along with my only grandmother, and the only thing getting me through is my girls and the need to be strong for them, and the knowledge that if I follow HIM I will see them again. 🌻
*Amen*
Daniel, we all just love you and worry about you. We all want you to have health and happiness. Much love and blessings from USA!!
I'm glad you are coming to terms with it. I am so sorry that you are so young and have so little time. That sucks.
