I am the husband of a tumor victim. It's a serious problem from which a bit of humor can help remove the sting. Thank you for helping the rest of us out :).
No offense, but how's she a victim? Hopefully all is good of course, but I don't really see people who suffer from a disease they likely caused themselves as victims. Unless of course it's say from exposure at work to a hidden carcinogen. Ah, I'm just being silly though. Peace

Jim we NEED u!!! Don’t know where we’d be without u Thanks for the best medicine in the world ❤️ Besides all that other medicine, laughter is so therapeutic. You are AMAZING
My brother wasn’t so fortunate. He had it removed but it came back twice and he didn’t make it, but he did a couple of extra years. I’m glad your wife came out on top Jim!
It started out as a preemptive strike to audience complaints but now I am pretty sure it has morphed into Multiple Personality Disorder. We've all been warned for years about answering ourselves...
@@HisWordisLife4U look at the little outro of the video he publish right now ! Just know that he is a very intelligent person, he is simply a master at actimg stupid
Thank you for your humor. I have inoperable brain tumor because of location and have had radiation treatment. It is not growing but could at any time. It’s always on my mind. No pun intended so it always helps to laugh about the uncontrollable. Thanks again!
Man, Jim Gaffigan has become one of my all time favorite comedians. He is easily right up there with the greatest comics of all time! It's not just the hilarious jokes and stories, it's also his timing and manner of delivery which is only unique to to him. If I'm having a crappy day, I watch 5-minutes from any one of his sets, and I am back to normal!
Your standup helped me get through the long months of dealing with breast cancer last year. Seriously! I had you on while I went through chemotherapy, and had to close my hospital room door because I was laughing so loud. As you can imagine, not a lot of laughter at the cancer clinic, but I much prefer laughter over tears, so thank you. Got the “all clear” December 14, and I’m so glad your wife is better, too.
Both my parents have died from cancer, so I have spent so much time in hospitals and talking with surgeons and this really made me laugh while also making me feel good about you paying respect to medical professionals. Hot pocket.
Jazzbuh brain tumors are pretty messed up (I hold 2 degrees on psych), but that is his job. Your observation points out his genius, and the gift of family support. He loves, and is loved by well-rounded, loving people. That is medicine #1, for her, and for them all.
I just had my right temporal lobe removed for my epilepsy in mid December. I know that’s entirely different from a tumor, but neurosurgery/medical humor are exactly what I needed to hear right now. Thanks for the laughs Jim!😂
The best comedian. You don't have to be profane to be funny. You take every day subjects and find the humor in and around them. That takes brains, talent and a sense of humor about the world we live in.
My meningioma was diagnosed the same year as Jeanie's treatment. It was a terrifying big deal, but Jeanie... you're an inspiration. Finding this video hit home, but hysterically. Obviously, I'm well three years out. Thank you to my health care team, family, friends, Jeanie, and Jim. Stay well all. 😷
I had to have a hysterectomy due to a grapefruit size growth, an endometriosis. I convinced myself it would be cool because my abdomine would reduce in size when they remove a grapefruit. After the surgery and subsequent puking. I looked at my belly and thought...LIAR!!!!
When I’m feeling down about my shitty health situation, I watch this video. I’ve read Jeannie’s book “when life gives your pears” and found it amazingly inspirational. I love you guys for making these videos available and for the laughter that melts my heart every time.
I had a malignant ovarian cyst the size of a grapefruit 15 years ago. Never put much thought into it but it’s so true that doctors compare tumors to fruits lol. He told me “size of a grapefruit and since it’s larger than 15 cm we have to operate” A little humor is always good to go through any difficult situation. After three rounds of chemo, I would definitely take laughter for medicine. Haha
Really needed this laugh!! I had radiation for a brain tumor on January 28th!! Being able to laugh about it, makes it bearable!! Oh, I was told mine was the size of a marble!! Lol
When I had my brain tumor op,the day I came home my kids had put cabbages everywhere 'To make me feel at home in case it went wrong and I was a cabbage...😂😂😂.
I watched this video while I was recovering from my second brain surgery (the first surgeon didn’t get all of the tumor, but the second one did!) This is HILARIOUS!!! 😂😂😂
My wife has brain surgery too. This happened before I met her, but the side effects of it are still with her to this day. I'm grateful Jim can help bring some humor to the subject 🙂
Dude 😂😂 I feel you. My husband had one behind his left eye. Lemon size. Two years after surgery. Still says “ I had brain surgery “. I look at him and tell him that shit was 2yrs ago 🙄
My kiwi was taken out in 09. I tell ya I still get that look, and what do you mean you don't remember my first word?! The tumor made you forget stuff mom. 😑
Kim Marie Faber I’m really sorry yours is inoperable. It’s not something to joke about. The medicine you take to slow it or try to decrease it will do a number on your body and sometimes personality. It did to my husband. With that, you do start to make jokes, otherwise you’ll go insane from the stress and grief around you. Some days I ask for it to be put back in so I can have 5 minutes of no talking! Hehe I am very thankful to have my husband back though!
I Discovered you During the pandemic, you've given me countless hours of amusement &enjoyment you put into words what we are all probubly thinking about Situations and people we encounter in our lives Thank you for Sharing yourself with us most of us don't have someone Like you in our Lives But we know in some degree thru Your Videos !
Jim, You have such a special gift of making people laugh. Don’t spoil your unique talent by using “bad words”. It is beneath you. ....and a cheap laugh.
Having worked for surgery and Trauma Services I jokingly mentioned to my ophthalmologist prior to having Lasik eye surgery, that you never want to hear a doctor say, "well or oops", after surgery. He didn't laugh and the first thing he said after 45 minutes of surgery on my right eye was "Well,...." 🤦
OMG! I must remember to not try eating my lunch while watching your videos..I almost choked!! several times!!!! I truly think only Jim Gaffigan can make such a terrible experience so hilarious without being morbid .. LOL
Jim.i am so glad ur wife is getting better. Jim - u r such a pleasure to watch and laugh with. Tyou so much. Blessings always to u and ur family as always. 😅😅.
I hit subscribe and the animals are still dying... You're sick Jim. Sick. But, I'm still watching and laughing. Sick I tell, ya. Sick. Thanks. I do animal rescue and needed that. It is this type of humor that makes it possible to deal with all the people out there who use and abuse animals. If I weren't laffing, I'd be crying.
You can relax Jim, I subscribed months ago. Just so you know, I can no longer watch your videos when I have trouble sleeping in the middle of the night. Not that you’re scary or anything, but the neighbors call the police when they hear me laughing hysterically at 3am.
this fella is gonna go places.keep it up Mr Gaffigan. your constant refusal to accept the shit life deals you smiles away my days. never surrender to the blues. admit it's there, sure, but refuse to let the external control the internal, ever beating, constant heart !
This is funny. You are funny unlike some other self-deprecating non-funny jokes. Your jokes really cheer me up. Hilarious narration of an otherwise scary event that's over.
First, to everybody that knows a survivor or is one. God bless. I actually think its harder on the family. Regardless, in my family the fruit won. :( However, watching him (i love this guy) really helped then the comments were gold. So many people beat the fruit. That is amazing! Anybody who has been thru this knows the pain behind his humor and somehow that makes it ok to re live. Peace.

Same here. He got me through 2020.
I was going top post the very same feelings about him then I saw your post. 😊
I agree!
I have trouble getting to sleep, and I watch Gaffigan show almost every night. I still laugh out loud even though I’ve memorized most of them.
I agree, Jim is hilarious. I laugh right out loud and have watched some of them multiple times.

My sympathies. I lost my grandma to cancer a few yrs ago.
Please accept my condolences. That’s a tough experience. I know. But we still have…Hot pockets!
Hot pocket!!😁😁
I like how Jim took the most heartbreaking thing in his life and somehow made people laugh and feel for him.
And feel for his wife. She gets it. As a talented co writer to this funny as heck stuff!

I think Jim Gaffigan is one of the top best comedians. Always makes me very happy with his tactics of humor.
“Some of these jokes are just for the fathers” 😆
Is it safe to say he’s one of the greatest comedians?
I have been watching a lot of comedians lately and, yes, I'd put him up with the greats.
I'd say you're pretty safe ;)
I say he definitely is!!👍💜
He was until he went on a political rant.
“ John Canary” what political rant ?
So glad your wife is all right! God bless y'all and your family!!!
I'm so glad to hear she is healthy now.🤍
Love his clean humor.
Talking in third person and acting like being apart of the audience is an ingenious idea and super funny. It’s made me laugh since Beyond the Pale.
I know, I bust out every time he does that!
I think that's one of his "signatures". Kinda like Brian Regan's crouching... Although I notice he doesn't do it as much anymore as he did in BtP...
@@ThatOne77 Ya can't be snarky AND dapper, D... js. 😉
Do you not know the definition of "apart"?
😂😂😂😂 So glad your wife is OK! ✌❤
LUV THIS GUY!!!!
He's the Best!
Gaffigan is my favorite! He has perfected his craft. Who else could turn a medical crisis into one of the funniest skits ever!
You are hilarious. The last 4 years wore me down. I gotta laugh again. Thank you.
I truly love your style of comedy. Everything I watch is hilarious!!!
They told me mine was the size of a lemon... Jim you’re killin’ it!!!🤣
Happy brain injury awareness month to you and your lovely wife 💙
OMG. So glad your wife is fine and this was hilarious!!!!! 🤣

Jim's jokes have a magical quality that they stay as funny despite repeat viewings.

Watching you is more than entertainment. What a heart you have. Your honesty is incredible.
“It’s as big as a pear.” Gaffigan replies “A pair of what?” “You didn’t finish”.
Everyone trusts Cosby, hahahahaha, that one got me unexpectedly.
Hey, hey, hey, gonna buy some rufies (said in fat albert voice)
I watch your skits, over and over and it still cracks me up😅😆😁💙
Me too. Over and over. So does my sister.
The eating of his wife`s food, beeing defensive/agressive about it, and the "What are YOU doing here!!" scream is comedy gold!!! Fantastic!
the visualization of a doctor and his surgery patient accidentally meeting up at the hospital cafeteria mid-surgery, man i've never laughed so hard
I am self isolating with by myself and having a baaad day until i watched u ... TY TY God bless u and your family Wife keep safe .
My friend and I used to do imitations of Andy Rooney every monday at school. I loved that guy!
Always great to hear someone is doing well after being diagnosed with cancer. Really happy for him and the family.
Thank you for this. I have been diagnosed with a 3.5cm brain tumor, or as you would say, the size of a large California strawberry.
Jim is the only person in the world who could make the worst day of my life not so bad. Thanks Jim!

I'm thankful for this, I had surgery for massive toma removed( cancer ) in the abdomen, which has been life altering and humor helps .
Hey there. Mine took 6 years and not fully recovered. But at least I have survived stage 4 cancer for 15 years.
