As a former pediatric RN who has taken care of many cancer patients, you can’t truly understand what a blessing this is for the families. Great work! Blessings to all who contributed and organized this donation.
As a man who has traveled across the whole USA from coast to coast, I can honestly say YOU GUYS are the BEST PEOPLE I HAVE HAD THE PLEASURE TO WATCH! 60,000 DOLLARS WOW THAT IS IMPRESSIVE. I doubt anyone watched that video with out shedding a tear or two. May the good Lord keep you all safe and warm this winter. Best Wishes Biz.
I wanted to share my thoughts but Joe said it so beautifully that I'll just stand behind him clapping. I hope everyone will join me in praying for these beautiful children. God bless.
I’m bawling happy tears right now! Thank you so much to every single one of you for your generosity! Thank you to this family for putting this together. Your hard work, love and generosity is beyond amazing!
I can not put into words the feelings I have I my heart from watching your video!!! Your endless hours of work from your entire family is awe inspiring the work you’ve done for those in need is mind blowing!!
To Jade from the video: You can get through this! My brother was diagnosed with bilateral stage 4 Wilms' at the age of 2. He's now 44 and healthy and happy with a family of his own. You can do it! ❤️ To everyone who donated: you are angels. 😇
I wasn't a cancer patient but our children's hospital of Akron Ohio saved my life! In 1972! A Drs misdiagnosis has lead to a life of medical needs but I'm alive 35 surgeries . I have a child of my own, a husband who loves me! Life is great! Congratulations! What your doing is amazing! ☺
I had a difficult time watching this. I had to keep pausing and wiping my eyes so I could see my screen. Yes, a big thank you to everyone that donated, and BIG thank you to the Souza family, because without you all here sharing your journey every week, this wouldn't happen.
Having had a child with cancer at the age of 17 months, watching you guys do this is always amazing. It means a lot. Luckily my story was one of victory and my son is now 30 years old and thriving.
I am so proud to be part of this community of supporters. Thank you to everyone who donated their time, money, thoughts and prayers! Y'all are the absolute best viewers ever!
I am an ACCOIN mom. I became one this August. We just finished radiation and start chemo in December. I say we, because it affects our whole family, but it's my 9 year old daughter doing all the hard work. You all have to know, it's not about the stuff, but about lifting the spirits of these sweet kids. Letting them forget, even if it's just for a minute. I can't wait to be on the other side, donating, instead of my children being the recipient of... THANK YOU to everyone who has participated in this and THANK YOU to this beautiful family for being the hands and feet. THANK YOU Jesus, for blessing this families platform and using them for good. Never forget, good always outweighs the bad. 💛
We are all capable of accessing the ultimate abundance. It's an intention that flows through all matters. The act of being open, receiving, calling, and giving are in logic the same thing. It's an intention. May your family be blessed with joy, grace and beauty. May your family embrace these experiences and ripple on amplifying greatness and infinite ultimate abundance. sending love from San Francisco, Yuki p.s. my first son is in Ukraine delivering life supporting food, water, winter survival things, and patching up houses so there's no leak and draft coming in. he's been serving for 6 months now. he bought his own air tickets, armor clothes, solar system, truck, and security stuff, built it so there's a sleeping space in the truck. Life is as magnificent, brilliant, breath taking as much as we invest in it. You are a beautiful person to comment in here like this, passing on light. One day, we will meet. Until then, be well.
You know, I spent nearly 4 years being the sole caregiver to my very sick husband. I lost him 8 months ago and have spent the time since then feeling incredibly lost, sad and sorry for myself. You've taught this 66 year old grandma of 7 that my life can still have meaning, and you've shown me how to do it. I'm ready to "get over myself" and engage in helping others. I'm looking forward to being part of your next drive... and whatever else I can find in the meantime! Thank you! ♥️
Jan4222 I to have walked thru this darkness time in one's life. The only healing is in trusting Jesus no matter what I cannot see & loving others heals oneself. My baby blessed our lives for 5 yrs. You always miss them but wouldn't have anyone stay here in prolonged pain. Fortunately I had 2 more lovely girls. Many marriages fall apart during these stressing situations & sometimes quite a bit later. I appreciate this family & we need to keep the families in our prayers.
Of all the righteous acts Jesus encouraged, giving to the sick, poor and discouraged is among the top. The watchers of this channel are blessing these, in major ways. Thank you to Good Simple Living family and their audience. I’m not able to do such things as you all do. I am able to give my prayers and love, in any case. God bless us all.
This is VERY COOL!!! As someone that has taken that journey (as an adult) this really impresses me. I survived a brain tumor some years ago. And I met some of the kids making that journey too. Usually in hallways waiting for tests etc. What you are doing definitely makes a difference!!!!
My daughter was born with cancer… she is now 19. She has fought to live all 19 years… after 6 life flights from our small town in Montana… she was under too long and suffered brain damage. Mentally she is 6 or 7 in a 19 year old body, but she is the happiest girl in the world! What you guys are doing with your influence is amazing!!!! From a parent of a child like this… your gifts allow a family to get through one more day, one more hour and sometimes one more minute… because we know we are not alone… Thank you 🙏
Tears of joy are all I have when you post this yearly. I will never forget how strong these WARRIORS and their families are. This always reminds me of you never know how strong you are until you have to be!!
HOLY COW!!!! $60,000!!! You’ve got this rough and tough old vet in Ohio crying at that number. Thank you EVERY who donated and a special THANK YOU to Adam Schroeder !
There is definitely more good, charitable humans in this world, than anyone can ever imagine! God bless those people who were able to make this year so memorable!
Definitely a tear jerker. OMG!!! $60,000!!!! Those kids are so worth it. I am not a current pediatric cancer parent but I was one thirty years ago and I know those families deeply appreciate everything all of you have done. Thank you to all who donated/gifted for this cause. It means more than you will ever know. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I hope it go to all the people it was raised for I hope the people at the hospital don't take those things and money. You all should to see if sick childrens got what you gave the hospital.
My wife works with ACCOIN (she talked with you about our backpacking adventures) and you interviewed her at 13:30. Our son Jackson 15:08 just won his two year battle with a solid liver tumor (half of his life as he is now 4 years old) and I can say with 100% certainty that your donations help give hope to those who are going through the hardest struggle of their lives. I am crying happy tears as I am writing this because I know from firsthand experience how hard Christmas is for families going through this. If it wasn't for amazing people like you, our family could have folded financially. It is because of families like yours and your wonderful viewers who donated, that our family grew in our faith and renewed our desire to do the same for others. Thank you so very much for everything you do. God bless you and your family and your wonderful subscribers.
You, your family, and sweet Jackson are in our prayers! I am praying that he continues to be able to keep the cancer at bay! May you guys have a wonderful, blessed Christmas season!
We are all so happy and honored to help in any way we could/can. I feel so blessed to have a small part in this worthy cause!🙏🤗❤️🙏🤗❤️. Jackson, you are my hero Buddy!!🤗🤗. And To his parents, I'm so proud to be part of your team in helping your son get well. I'm just a teeny tiny warrior in this fight, but you put all of us teeny warriors together and look what we can do!! 🌎🌍🙏🤗!! God bless always 🙏❤️🙏❤️
God Bless the Children and let them rise above , Angels on high in the living realm ... God Bless and may everyday be better then the day before. ❤❤🙏🙏❤❤
Souza family, you guys are just awesome! Tears are flowing just watching this! And HOLY WOW!! $60,000!!! You guys are so modest but it was YOU who spearheaded this tremendous response and everyone responded because of your generosity and kindness! We absolutely love you guys!!! 💖
It is difficult to find the right words to describe this achievement by the people who donated this year and years gone by. You have done the children and their families proud, there is no doubt the love you have shown will be felt and the smiles you have created will help all those fighting their fight have renewed strength to keep fighting.
Bravo à vous, c'est vraiment magnifique ce que vous faites pour ces enfants malades avec ses cadeaux et ce chèque.. Vous êtes vraiment des gens extraordinaires !!
Sitting here crying tears of joy and love for what your family does for these sweet little ones. You and your subscribers are such a blessing to so many families dealing with this horrible disease! May God continue to bless you and everyone involved.🥰
What a wonderful effort from everyone. Your idea just captures our hearts. And these children and young people also. May God bless these 'loaves and fishes' to bring abundant cheer and happiness.
You know, you guys keep saying that you don’t do anything and it’s the fans who make it possible. Without your channel, your charisma, your faith and your family none of what YOU have accomplished with this beautiful charity could happen. YOU made this incredibly inspirational charity what it has become…a miracle. You and your family are that miracle. God bless you and everyone who contributed to this amazing charity. Can’t wait for next year! Sorry had to get that off my chest. 😂
Typing through tears at the faces of those sick children. I am sending up prayers asking for favor of His healing for those precious warriors battling cancer. Thank you for your hard work in collecting the donations and to all those that donated. You are truly angels here on Earth. Sending love and prayers from Kentucky.
I know this will just get lost in the thousands of comments but……WOW!!!! You guys are SO INSPIRING!!! Thank you and to all your subscribers… THANK YOU!!!
There are no words. I sat in the breakroom on my lunch crying! Cannot believe you doubled your total. That is just amazing!!! What an indescribable gift for these families and this organization. Seeing these photos and hearing this families stories took me right back. You never think it will happen to you- until it does. What a blessing you and your channel have been to them! Thank you!
Thank You for being the engine of this Amazing Fundraiser! My sister was diagnosed in January and passed December 6, 1985. I know what it feels like to sit in an Oncology Wing watching your sibling fight for their Life. $60,000 is wonderful…Thank you and God Bless each and every one of you. You brought me to tears
I can only watch half of this. It really hits hard for me. Im crying now just thinking about it. My brother passed away in 82 with cancer. For 4 years he suffered. He was 4 at the time they found it. Being a sibling watching and not being able to do anything really hurts. I so glad you all do this. This is just awesome. Thank you all.
Wow, that is incredible. Thanks for inviting us to go along for the adventure. I have not been able to work since 2019 and I did not donate last year. This year I took a chance and gave. I am glad that so many people gave and made this huge donation possible. I can not believe the support this one family has from all around the USA and even around the world. 😃😃😃😃
I didn't expect to shed tears this morning 😭😭 exceptionally well produced video! Thank you for all you do, we know it requires a lot of dedication, Thank you to everyone who donated and to those who subscribe to this lovely channel ... Subscribing to this channel gives this beautiful family a platform to make a difference in this crazy world 🙏🙏
I love how you have used your youtube channel for something as beautiful and worthwhile as this. You guys definitely give back in a big way. Without you putting out the call on your channel, this wouldn't have happened.
Magnifique , restez comme vous êtes, j'ai la gorge nouée et la larme à l'œil quand je vois ces enfants, vous êtes formidable. Un grand merci de la France et du pays du champagne
What an overwhelming response from donators!! Thank you, Good Simple Living for all the work and energy YOU put into this charity!! My prayers go out to these children and families going through this awful, terrifying disease!
Thanks to Jeremy, Melissa and their precious family for initiating this Drive. Your goal setting abilities, and your "Can Do" approach to life, the love and affection youhave for one another and your fellow man is what draws many to your channel. Thanks to all who heard the call for compassion and responded with overflowing love and support. People don"t need much of an excuse to show love, they may just need a direction, which you so willingly provided! This was a beautiful effort. Praise to everyone!
Well done guys what a fantastic achievement,I have incurable cancer and what you all have done will bring a lot of happiness to a lot of people. Rob uk x
That was so amazing. Left me in tears seeing the kids and the suffering that they have or are going through. So hard on families. This community has brought a bright spot to their lives.
J&M you and your family are such a blessing. Thank you so much for being such a huge inspiration to so many across the world. God bless you all abundantly.
I know you could not do this without so many caring people, but your family is the one doing the work and you are all amazing. The whole family is God's angel to so many children.
You certainly brought joy to my heart, and I thank you that you allowed me to be a part of this! Praying for your family to have many many blessings this holiday season
Oh, I'm crying through the entire video with tears of great joy for all the time and sacrifice you have done in coordinating this fundraiser and the great Joy and thanks that ACCOIN is expressing. What an awesome thing your viewers all over the world have done. What a great community! May God bless those who have given and those who are receiving and your family too.
I felt the same as I watched. So proud of this family's achieving beyond their goal, and all who gave in support of a beautiful cause! My nephew, diagnosed with Angiosarcoma at 25, lived a year longer and became a reason for more research! Yes, no child should ever have to fight cancer alone! God Bless you all... Amen🙏🏼❤
What an Amazing year! You are not only giving gifts and well needed funding you are setting the best example possible for your children! God Bless You All! ❤️🙏❤️
Yes. For their children AND MINE! I share this with my own Children. I want them to see the gift that 'giving' REALLY gives!!! (If that makes sense) I know what a battle I fought to whip Cancer, my Dr told me after my frustration with a year of treatment, surgery and losing weeks at a time ( I barely remember any of that entire year) to explain to me how serious my treatment was, my Dr finally said 'the only thing you have left to do it die. We have had to make you THAT sick. Give yourself grace and heal' .. I cannot imagine as a child, going through that. I can't imagine and don't want to. As a Parent, Our hearts are made to FIX things for our babies, and this isn't something that can be 'fixed' with a little glue, or a new part. How helpless these parents must feel. I have to share ( I'm sorry this is so long) but one of the HARSHEST realities of Cancer is the loneliness! You watch everyone continue to live, go and do, because they have to and you can't. You feel alone, forgotten, forsaken...even in a crowd ... It hurts! It's not their fault, and not the patient's fault. It's part of the gross ugliness of the disease. What this family and EVERY person who has taken part in ANY way, through gifts, money, prayers, supporting this channel, and did I say PRAYERS , everyone if you had given the gift of easing that loneliness. These babies, these parents, the workers, families and friends, they have all had someone pick up a small piece of the burden and carry it for them for a while. That is what you have really given. They KNOW they haven't been forgotten. All because of people like YOU. Yes, YOU!!! @ Good Simple Living, Jeremy and Melissa, you TRULY have no idea the gift you are giving the world over. You are the vessel in which the very hand of God moves! May God's grace and mercy cover each of you. His face shine upon you, May these babies heal and grow up healthy and strong, to one day do this for the next ones, who will sadly carry this torch. I'm so Thankful one day, this too shall pass and there will never be another to suffer. To those babies that Moved to Heaven, we remember you. We remember your battle and the warriors you ARE! RUN and roll on the soft green hills of Heaven, ... skip down the street of gold, splash and skip rocks in the Crystal River, and snuggle up on Jesus Lap. Nothing can ever hurt you again. We will all be a long shortly, and there will never be another see you later, no more tears! Friends, where ever you are, Remember ... YOU have a purpose and GOD HAS A PLAN!!! Thank You Jeremy and Melissa, all the kiddos, those who give of their hearts to treat these babies... We see you, we are praying for you and for every family in the battle to WHIP CANCERS BUTT!! Love from one survivor to many others...
What an outpouring of God's LOVE. From the Souza family who share their lives with us to the entire Good Simple Living family around the world, this show of LOVE is breath taking. Thank you Souza family for bringing this all together!
Oh my....I cried like a baby! This definitely puts things into perspective. I'm 58yrs. old and at my age I have a slew of health issues, which bother me everyday, but I've been married, had a baby, driven a car, traveled across the country, etc. But when you see a baby, or a young person who hasn't experienced those things and sadly may not get to, makes my little issues seem miniscule. God bless the Souza family for all they've done to organize this fundraiser and for all their hard work. Lets all pray for those children and their families!! 😇🥰😷🙏
Oh. my. gosh. you guys, this is so amazing! Thank you so much for orchestrating this spectacular event. God bless you and all who helped create a special moment in the lives of these children and their families who are going through such a horrific time. Boy you were not kidding, **VERY EMOTIONAL** for sure.
Wow!!! Goosebumps and tears! Well done on such a great achievement! Many blessings to you and your family for getting it all together. You are a amazing team! Sending love and prayers to all the children battling cancer. Give their families strength to stand by them through it all.
I have no words, thank you all so much for being there, and for arranging the toy drive. I am in tears for the children’s suffering, they are all so brave ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for doing this! My daughter was in Pediatric ICU at Doernbechers, not for cancer, but for several days. It was scary for us, but for her, it was hard. The donations she received while we were there, the activity bag, and even the gifts they gave to her sister were priceless. It was a calm in our storm. Last night we were back in Doernbechers again, so as I lay here watching this, and having planned a few toy drives ourselves, we are humbled by your hearts. It is your viewers donating, but you are the steam behind the trains engine. ❤️ Our most sincere prayers for each of those beautiful Littles and their families. 🙏
As I wipe the tears from my eyes, I thank you, Thank You, and THANK YOU!!!!! Thanks to Good Simple Living Family and ALL subscribers who contributed to this overwhelmingly successful event. I will be interested in hearing how the hospital uses the $60,000 for the patients and families. And a special shout out to Adam Schroeder for rocketing this years project into outer space!!! So many angels...
I almost never comment. But I just have to say Thank YOU for putting your lives out there (not an easy burden some days). Thank you for being an inspiration among so much uncertainty. Thank you for being a light among so much darkness. And most of all thank you for being the ambassadors for God's love that all followers of Christ should aspire to.
My heart sank watching those pictures of these wonderful babies and kids. I wish I could just give you all a HUGE GIANT HUG and KISSES from here. Know that my heart is with you. 💖
The Lord moves in mysterious ways. How you transitioned from one place to another place without fully knowing what lay ahead and, along the way, you have blessed dozens of families directly with your charitable work, and you have blessed thousands, perhaps millions of those on the internet, around the world to observe what selflessness looks like. Thank you.
I am home sick and very emotional. I lost my son not from cancer but we don’t know from what. suddenly on November 1. So I’ve been crying for 25 days. I saw those beautiful children and I kept crying and crying. I saw the whole video and my sister said calls me and she says watch and watch the live, all I did was bawl from the beginning to the end. Not only are your subscribers, kind, considerate, loving, and willing to go beyond anything I’ve ever seen, but you guys are so great I don’t. I get so emotional and I’ve been watching you for about a year now because I didn’t know you existed. God bless you all. God bless your subscribers and all those children that needed your help and those families. Oh my God I’m crying again I’ll keep watching. God bless you guys.❤
It is better to give than to receive.....treat others as you would want to be treated.... A giving heart is a blessed heart...a family that works together will provide more than they need to be able to give. God has and will continue to bless your family......as you are doing what he wants everyone to do... Hugs and love to you all!
As a former pediatric cancer mom this bring such joy and inspiration to my heart! You guys are amazing! I am sure the families appreciate each and every thing! There is nothing quite like being told “Your child has cancer”, or having to say it yourself and speak those words into the air. “Tahlia has cancer.” Was and still is the most suffocating sentence I’ve ever had to say. 2nd only to “Tahlia died, and is in the arms of Jesus now.” Your efforts while I’m sure weren’t easy, are so appreciated! Thank you so so much for all your work and support to these families and ACCOIN for all you do for the cancer community!
I am so sorry Tahlia lost her battle but she is in the arms of angels which hopefully will help you grieve, love to you all and stay safe and well God bless you x

To Jade from the video: You can get through this! My brother was diagnosed with bilateral stage 4 Wilms' at the age of 2. He's now 44 and healthy and happy with a family of his own. You can do it! ❤️
To everyone who donated: you are angels. 😇
Maybe you can contact Jade via the Hospital directly, this is so life essential to know that healing is possible
You are right about that?
The care you put in the gift bags is wonderful. You might need two drivers next year.
Wouldn't that be such an amazing blessing for the children
I wasn't a cancer patient but our children's hospital of Akron Ohio saved my life! In 1972! A Drs misdiagnosis has lead to a life of medical needs but I'm alive 35 surgeries . I have a child of my own, a husband who loves me! Life is great! Congratulations! What your doing is amazing! ☺

p.s. my first son is in Ukraine delivering life supporting food, water, winter survival things, and patching up houses so there's no leak and draft coming in. he's been serving for 6 months now. he bought his own air tickets, armor clothes, solar system, truck, and security stuff, built it so there's a sleeping space in the truck.
Life is as magnificent, brilliant, breath taking as much as we invest in it. You are a beautiful person to comment in here like this, passing on light.
One day, we will meet. Until then, be well.
Amen. 😊😊😊😊
I am a cancer survivor...I sat and cried as I watched this video. Thank you.

That is Amazing!!! What a blessing to all the families.❤
Your family is amazing! This brought tears to my eyes.
I work with cancer patients daily, thank you so much. I’m so inspired.
My wife works with ACCOIN (she talked with you about our backpacking adventures) and you interviewed her at 13:30. Our son Jackson 15:08 just won his two year battle with a solid liver tumor (half of his life as he is now 4 years old) and I can say with 100% certainty that your donations help give hope to those who are going through the hardest struggle of their lives. I am crying happy tears as I am writing this because I know from firsthand experience how hard Christmas is for families going through this. If it wasn't for amazing people like you, our family could have folded financially. It is because of families like yours and your wonderful viewers who donated, that our family grew in our faith and renewed our desire to do the same for others. Thank you so very much for everything you do. God bless you and your family and your wonderful subscribers.
You, your family, and sweet Jackson are in our prayers! I am praying that he continues to be able to keep the cancer at bay! May you guys have a wonderful, blessed Christmas season!
We are all so happy and honored to help in any way we could/can. I feel so blessed to have a small part in this worthy cause!🙏🤗❤️🙏🤗❤️.
Jackson, you are my hero Buddy!!🤗🤗. And To his parents, I'm so proud to be part of your team in helping your son get well. I'm just a teeny tiny warrior in this fight, but you put all of us teeny warriors together and look what we can do!! 🌎🌍🙏🤗!! God bless always 🙏❤️🙏❤️
Prayers for your family to always be healthy. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Praying for your family, and your warrior son. ❤
What AMAZING human beings !!! Well done to you all
Thank to everyone who donated. Brought tears all through this video. What a BLESSING to those who need it most. Prayers for all. 🙏🙏
God Bless the Children and let them rise above , Angels on high in the living realm ... God Bless and may everyday be better then the day before. ❤❤🙏🙏❤❤
You are worthy of our pride and thank you for everything.
Souza family, you guys are just awesome! Tears are flowing just watching this! And HOLY WOW!! $60,000!!! You guys are so modest but it was YOU who spearheaded this tremendous response and everyone responded because of your generosity and kindness! We absolutely love you guys!!! 💖
There is a lot of good in this world, thank you to all who donated. May God bring healing and life back to those who suffer with cancer.
It is difficult to find the right words to describe this achievement by the people who donated this year and years gone by. You have done the children and their families proud, there is no doubt the love you have shown will be felt and the smiles you have created will help all those fighting their fight have renewed strength to keep fighting.
You are right about that?
This video is a tribute to all who gave but especially Adam who went beyond what most of us can give. Well done
Bravo à vous, c'est vraiment magnifique ce que vous faites pour ces enfants malades avec ses cadeaux et ce chèque.. Vous êtes vraiment des gens extraordinaires !!
Sitting here crying tears of joy and love for what your family does for these sweet little ones. You and your subscribers are such a blessing to so many families dealing with this horrible disease! May God continue to bless you and everyone involved.🥰
Your family and all who donated are doing God's work. Thank you!
Massive massive well done to you guys, what an inspiration
What a wonderful effort from everyone. Your idea just captures our hearts. And these children and young people also. May God bless these 'loaves and fishes' to bring abundant cheer and happiness.
Fact?

How are you doing Jim
An incredible family effort to organize, pack, and deliver this year’s donations. Just melts the heart❤️❤️❤️
You know, you guys keep saying that you don’t do anything and it’s the fans who make it possible. Without your channel, your charisma, your faith and your family none of what YOU have accomplished with this beautiful charity could happen. YOU made this incredibly inspirational charity what it has become…a miracle. You and your family are that miracle. God bless you and everyone who contributed to this amazing charity. Can’t wait for next year! Sorry had to get that off my chest. 😂
Typing through tears at the faces of those sick children. I am sending up prayers asking for favor of His healing for those precious warriors battling cancer. Thank you for your hard work in collecting the donations and to all those that donated. You are truly angels here on Earth. Sending love and prayers from Kentucky.
I know this will just get lost in the thousands of comments but……WOW!!!! You guys are SO INSPIRING!!! Thank you and to all your subscribers… THANK YOU!!!
Kevin, It still may get lost, but "84 thumbs ups" and maybe even more, happened before it does.
There are no words. I sat in the breakroom on my lunch crying! Cannot believe you doubled your total. That is just amazing!!! What an indescribable gift for these families and this organization. Seeing these photos and hearing this families stories took me right back. You never think it will happen to you- until it does. What a blessing you and your channel have been to them! Thank you!
Again, every year this UA-cam video of yours is both harder and happier for me to watch. God bless you, and all the best from Croatia, EU.
Thank You for being the engine of this Amazing Fundraiser! My sister was diagnosed in January and passed December 6, 1985. I know what it feels like to sit in an Oncology Wing watching your sibling fight for their Life. $60,000 is wonderful…Thank you and God Bless each and every one of you. You brought me to tears
I'm so sorry 😞
You set out to build a house and ended up building a community. What a blessing.
I can only watch half of this. It really hits hard for me. Im crying now just thinking about it. My brother passed away in 82 with cancer. For 4 years he suffered. He was 4 at the time they found it. Being a sibling watching and not being able to do anything really hurts. I so glad you all do this. This is just awesome. Thank you all.
I am Thankful for you !!
I love how you are teaching not only your children but also so many others what it is to be a beautiful human being.
Wow, that is incredible. Thanks for inviting us to go along for the adventure. I have not been able to work since 2019 and I did not donate last year. This year I took a chance and gave. I am glad that so many people gave and made this huge donation possible. I can not believe the support this one family has from all around the USA and even around the world. 😃😃😃😃
I didn't expect to shed tears this morning 😭😭 exceptionally well produced video! Thank you for all you do, we know it requires a lot of dedication, Thank you to everyone who donated and to those who subscribe to this lovely channel ... Subscribing to this channel gives this beautiful family a platform to make a difference in this crazy world 🙏🙏
I love how you have used your youtube channel for something as beautiful and worthwhile as this. You guys definitely give back in a big way. Without you putting out the call on your channel, this wouldn't have happened.
Magnifique , restez comme vous êtes, j'ai la gorge nouée et la larme à l'œil quand je vois ces enfants, vous êtes formidable. Un grand merci de la France et du pays du champagne
You all are just amazing. It gives me hope in the world. ❤
What an overwhelming response from donators!! Thank you, Good Simple Living for all the work and energy YOU put into this charity!! My prayers go out to these children and families going through this awful, terrifying disease!
Thanks to Jeremy, Melissa and their precious family for initiating this Drive. Your goal setting abilities, and your "Can Do" approach to life, the love and affection youhave for one another and your fellow man is what draws many to your channel. Thanks to all who heard the call for compassion and responded with overflowing love and support. People don"t need much of an excuse to show love, they may just need a direction, which you so willingly provided! This was a beautiful effort. Praise to everyone!
Well done guys what a fantastic achievement,I have incurable cancer and what you all have done will bring a lot of happiness to a lot of people. Rob uk x
❤️ prayers for you
May God’s blessings and healing touch all who are battling cancer and strengthen their families!!! Thank you all for your efforts!!!
Thankyou to one and all who were a part of this incredible gift. There is light in the world when we care enough to help others.
That was so amazing. Left me in tears seeing the kids and the suffering that they have or are going through. So hard on families. This community has brought a bright spot to their lives.
J&M you and your family are such a blessing. Thank you so much for being such a huge inspiration to so many across the world. God bless you all abundantly.
Your family is a blessing to these families! Love what you do and have done ! Everybody came together for these families! ❤️
Love this family so much. Merry Christmas and stay blessed!
I know you could not do this without so many caring people, but your family is the one doing the work and you are all amazing. The whole family is God's angel to so many children.
Blessings and thanks to you and the many wonderful donors.
You certainly brought joy to my heart, and I thank you that you allowed me to be a part of this! Praying for your family to have many many blessings this holiday season
❤️
Oh, I'm crying through the entire video with tears of great joy for all the time and sacrifice you have done in coordinating this fundraiser and the great Joy and thanks that ACCOIN is expressing. What an awesome thing your viewers all over the world have done. What a great community! May God bless those who have given and those who are receiving and your family too.
I felt the same as I watched. So proud of this family's achieving beyond their goal, and all who gave in support of a beautiful cause! My nephew, diagnosed with Angiosarcoma at 25, lived a year longer and became a reason for more research! Yes, no child should ever have to fight cancer alone! God Bless you all... Amen🙏🏼❤
We are a cancer family and we THANK YOU very much for all you do for families like mine.
❤️
You have just restored my faith! I cant stop crying!
What an Amazing year! You are not only giving gifts and well needed funding you are setting the best example possible for your children! God Bless You All! ❤️🙏❤️
Yes. For their children AND MINE! I share this with my own Children. I want them to see the gift that 'giving' REALLY gives!!! (If that makes sense) I know what a battle I fought to whip Cancer, my Dr told me after my frustration with a year of treatment, surgery and losing weeks at a time ( I barely remember any of that entire year) to explain to me how serious my treatment was, my Dr finally said 'the only thing you have left to do it die. We have had to make you THAT sick. Give yourself grace and heal' .. I cannot imagine as a child, going through that. I can't imagine and don't want to. As a Parent, Our hearts are made to FIX things for our babies, and this isn't something that can be 'fixed' with a little glue, or a new part. How helpless these parents must feel. I have to share ( I'm sorry this is so long) but one of the HARSHEST realities of Cancer is the loneliness! You watch everyone continue to live, go and do, because they have to and you can't. You feel alone, forgotten, forsaken...even in a crowd ... It hurts! It's not their fault, and not the patient's fault. It's part of the gross ugliness of the disease. What this family and EVERY person who has taken part in ANY way, through gifts, money, prayers, supporting this channel, and did I say PRAYERS , everyone if you had given the gift of easing that loneliness. These babies, these parents, the workers, families and friends, they have all had someone pick up a small piece of the burden and carry it for them for a while. That is what you have really given. They KNOW they haven't been forgotten. All because of people like YOU. Yes, YOU!!! @ Good Simple Living, Jeremy and Melissa, you TRULY have no idea the gift you are giving the world over. You are the vessel in which the very hand of God moves! May God's grace and mercy cover each of you. His face shine upon you, May these babies heal and grow up healthy and strong, to one day do this for the next ones, who will sadly carry this torch. I'm so Thankful one day, this too shall pass and there will never be another to suffer.
To those babies that Moved to Heaven, we remember you. We remember your battle and the warriors you ARE! RUN and roll on the soft green hills of Heaven, ... skip down the street of gold, splash and skip rocks in the Crystal River, and snuggle up on Jesus Lap. Nothing can ever hurt you again. We will all be a long shortly, and there will never be another see you later, no more tears!
Friends, where ever you are, Remember ... YOU have a purpose and GOD HAS A PLAN!!! Thank You Jeremy and Melissa, all the kiddos, those who give of their hearts to treat these babies... We see you, we are praying for you and for every family in the battle to WHIP CANCERS BUTT!! Love from one survivor to many others...
What an outpouring of God's LOVE. From the Souza family who share their lives with us to the entire Good Simple Living family around the world, this show of LOVE is breath taking. Thank you Souza family for bringing this all together!
Oh my....I cried like a baby! This definitely puts things into perspective. I'm 58yrs. old and at my age I have a slew of health issues, which bother me everyday, but I've been married, had a baby, driven a car, traveled across the country, etc. But when you see a baby, or a young person who hasn't experienced those things and sadly may not get to, makes my little issues seem miniscule. God bless the Souza family for all they've done to organize this fundraiser and for all their hard work. Lets all pray for those children and their families!! 😇🥰😷🙏
So thankful that so many people helped make this happen. God bless 🙏 ❤️
Amen
The greatest home you ever built is in the hearts of those Children! God bless you all
Oh. my. gosh. you guys, this is so amazing! Thank you so much for orchestrating this spectacular event. God bless you and all who helped create a special moment in the lives of these children and their families who are going through such a horrific time. Boy you were not kidding, **VERY EMOTIONAL** for sure.
Wow!!! Goosebumps and tears! Well done on such a great achievement!
Many blessings to you and your family for getting it all together. You are a amazing team!
Sending love and prayers to all the children battling cancer. Give their families strength to stand by them through it all.
I have no words, thank you all so much for being there, and for arranging the toy drive. I am in tears for the children’s suffering, they are all so brave ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for doing this! My daughter was in Pediatric ICU at Doernbechers, not for cancer, but for several days. It was scary for us, but for her, it was hard. The donations she received while we were there, the activity bag, and even the gifts they gave to her sister were priceless. It was a calm in our storm. Last night we were back in Doernbechers again, so as I lay here watching this, and having planned a few toy drives ourselves, we are humbled by your hearts. It is your viewers donating, but you are the steam behind the trains engine. ❤️ Our most sincere prayers for each of those beautiful Littles and their families. 🙏
Prayers for your family 👪 🙏 ❤️
As I wipe the tears from my eyes, I thank you, Thank You, and THANK YOU!!!!! Thanks to Good Simple Living Family and ALL subscribers who contributed to this overwhelmingly successful event. I will be interested in hearing how the hospital uses the $60,000 for the patients and families. And a special shout out to Adam Schroeder for rocketing this years project into outer space!!! So many angels...
Space Angels!!...a new concept!
This is so awesome, the GSL family is so loving!❤ Just can’t hold the tears back!😢
Aww.. I could not stop crying.. you guys are angels.. rising angels.. may god send all his blessings to you and your family.. you deserve all.. 👏 💗
I almost never comment. But I just have to say Thank YOU for putting your lives out there (not an easy burden some days). Thank you for being an inspiration among so much uncertainty. Thank you for being a light among so much darkness. And most of all thank you for being the ambassadors for God's love that all followers of Christ should aspire to.
My heart sank watching those pictures of these wonderful babies and kids. I wish I could just give you all a HUGE GIANT HUG and KISSES from here. Know that my heart is with you. 💖
The Lord moves in mysterious ways. How you transitioned from one place to another place without fully knowing what lay ahead and, along the way, you have blessed dozens of families directly with your charitable work, and you have blessed thousands, perhaps millions of those on the internet, around the world to observe what selflessness looks like. Thank you.
I am home sick and very emotional. I lost my son not from cancer
but we don’t know from what. suddenly on November 1.
So I’ve been crying for 25 days. I saw those beautiful children and I kept crying and crying. I saw the whole video and my sister said calls me and she says watch and watch the live, all I did was bawl from the beginning to the end.
Not only are your subscribers, kind, considerate, loving, and willing to go beyond anything I’ve ever seen, but you guys are so great I don’t. I get so emotional and I’ve been watching you for about a year now because I didn’t know you existed.
God bless you all. God bless your subscribers and all those children that needed your help and those families. Oh my God I’m crying again I’ll keep watching. God bless you guys.❤
I'm so so sorry for your loss mama ❤️
Fa
Fact
It is better to give than to receive.....treat others as you would want to be treated.... A giving heart is a blessed heart...a family that works together will provide more than they need to be able to give. God has and will continue to bless your family......as you are doing what he wants everyone to do... Hugs and love to you all!
Watching this...makes me say why!!!! You are so correct... ALL I can do is pray. God will do what needs to be done.
As a former pediatric cancer mom this bring such joy and inspiration to my heart! You guys are amazing! I am sure the families appreciate each and every thing! There is nothing quite like being told “Your child has cancer”, or having to say it yourself and speak those words into the air. “Tahlia has cancer.” Was and still is the most suffocating sentence I’ve ever had to say. 2nd only to “Tahlia died, and is in the arms of Jesus now.” Your efforts while I’m sure weren’t easy, are so appreciated! Thank you so so much for all your work and support to these families and ACCOIN for all you do for the cancer community!
I'm so so sorry you lost sweet Tahlia mama. These kids deserve better, it's never okay ❤️
I’m sorry for your loss x
I am so sorry Tahlia lost her battle but she is in the arms of angels which hopefully will help you grieve, love to you all and stay safe and well God bless you x
Made a 79 year old old Buzzard tear up ‼️GOD BLES THE FAMILY & HUMANITY ❣️ 🙏
It’s so heartwarming to see this type of love still exists in the world.
