Ok I realize the confusion on title!! In the video I’m referring to when I had 3 months left to live!! All good now, cancer is something that I’ve always just feared. The two cancer scares this year has been insane enough and just given me the courage to finally start crossing things off of my list!
Wanted to a bit of a longer video explaining the list and what I was feeling at the time!
You should propbably pin this comment. Praying🙏
Still happy to watch the whole video but I needed this spoiler 😂🙏🏻❤
This video is a gem. Thank you for sharing. It doesn't even feel weird how happy it makes one feel that you are able - and not only able, but willing to - experience all those things from your list.
And the scenery is breathtaking, pure aesthetics.
Had me scared lol, glad you're okay
thank god u arent dying :D

I watched 2 youtubers: Technoblade and Sam & Colby. Technoblade passed away last year from sarcoma cancer. Colby this year had cancer but was able to conquer it. No matter if you die fighting or live to tell the tale just remember that you are special. You are awesome. You will always be remembered and never forgotten. So no matter what happens I just wanna say, thank you for being my favorite amputee and even though you only have 1 real leg, you make the most of it and enjoy everyday that comes. So thank you for being you. (ps i just read the comment but even if faced with death again keep fighting hard).
i miss Techno so much :(
@@annika6592 me too :(
Technoblade being gone feels so wrong:[
Technoblade never dies!
Omg I love Sam and Colby! Colby is so strong he had such a great mindset to beat cancer
As a fellow dying person..i was given 11 days in 2020. 3 times told i wouldn't see 6 months. Stage 4 colon and liver cancer.

A few weeks ago I lost a young friend of mine to cancer. She was 14 and never talked much to me about it. The last thing she said was: that things would get better. Please cherish the people in your life and never take anyone or anything for granted. Jesus loves all of yall! Even if it doesn't seem like it now, things will eventually be better.
My prayers and condolences to you. God is good and offers comfort to all who are mourning and brokenhearted. God bless you.
I am so sorry, stay strong
I am so sorry for your and her family's loss
I'm sorry for your and her family's loss. Hope you're doing well and that she had a good life
My condolences to you and the family. I truly just have no words sending the love to you guys
surviving cancer twice and losing a leg in the process and you're still happy and positive, you're a real one
@cdubzskillz88 man shut up
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
How could he not be happy? Not many can say they've BEATEN cancer.
You either laugh it off or get swallowed. Death is a funny thing.
My grandpa had colon cancer and surgery was successful. 2 years later (now) he has a new cancer now, stomach cancer.
The title scared me a bit but I’m glad you’re finding a way to cope and staying positive 🫶

same TT but I'm glad he's okay now
Omg, me too I was so scared but so glad he’s okay now!

Same!!!! It should be when I was given 3 months left to live or when I had 3 months left to live. This makes it sound like he's actively dying -_-
"The moment you start dying is when you finally start to focus on living" ... that hits hard af
Everyone in this world is going to die. This is why its commonly told to people to live life to the fullest, because time is short, no joke.
@@Kiduk90no one focuses on they’ll die though, most people can’t even handle thinking that all the time, and most people won’t truly realize what it means until it’s time. That’s how humans work it’s no error it’s our nature.
As soon as you are conceived, you have started to die.
@@Pherretfishwell said.
"Dear friends, I come to you with a heavy message that I believe carries eternal significance. Without a savior, we face an eternity separated from God, destined for a place of deep suffering and anguish. The truth is, our sins separate us from the perfect and holy presence of God. But I bring you hope amidst this darkness. Jesus Christ, the Son of God, offers us a way of escape from this eternal suffering. He willingly bore the weight of our sins on the cross, enduring unimaginable agony so that we may find forgiveness and salvation. Please, consider the gravity of this message. The choice we make in this life determines our eternal destiny. Embrace Jesus as your savior and experience the incredible love, grace, and eternal life He offers. May the Holy Spirit stir your heart and guide you to the truth."
My mum was given the exact same diagnosis, stage IV lung cancer with three months to live. She ended up living close to three years, most of which was spent with a comfortable quality of life. Have your family and your loves close and live your life. My thoughts are with you!
Yes, a diagnosis with a time frame doesn't mean that's all you get. Many people will exceed that time frame, but a few don't. Yet, he's in good health, so he'll probably have more time.
@@PoeLemiche is in good health he will last longer then 3 months.

I’m two years past stage 2 uterine cancer and praying cancer doesn’t return. Next checkup is next month. But I am SO TIRED of worrying about it! Your video was encouraging. I need to make a bucket list. Not because I’m about to die, but because I WILL die one day. Time’s awastin’!
I hope the cancer stays away, and you can have a long happy life :)
"The moment you start dying is when you finally start focus on living". I just wish more people would hear this - and wish I could remind myself more often about this. If we all thought this way, there would be so much less anger, frustration, negativity and hostility in this world. Thanks for sharing these difficult thoughts Alex.

I have a genetic disease that makes it difficult for me to do daily things, but It isn't supposed to affect my lifespan. So I'm struggling with a life that is really painful but won't likley end anytime soon. So I try to find small joys, it also pushed me to not wait a decade to start my bucket list so I started it this year to go after the big joys. I love your videos, I know there's a lot of unspoken pain behind the joy, but you make the world a better place by sharing your little and big joys.
Good on you man! I don’t think I would last very long if life got that hard for me
Keep going ! Hope you cab tick off goals on your list too!
I feel that. I have something called Ehlers Danlos syndrome and it won’t kill me but it does make it hard for me to live my life. I’m nowhere near as positive as this guy and watching his content really helps.
His positivity keeps him going- more than circumstances could stop him. It’s almost like a meditation or something on the concept of how being alive and feeling like you’re living vs surviving works

Hey man, you're doing amazing. My Dad passed away yesterday morning from stage 4 colon cancer. It's been so hard to live life normally without him. He wasn't able to finish his list, but one thing he didn't do was regret. His list was optional, but what wasn't optional was not being there for his children. No matter how much he hurt, he would always look so tough just for me and my siblings. He lived his life one day at a time, and he knew he wasn't going to have much time. He fought this cancer for 3 years, and he was the strongest man I have ever seen. No matter how skinny he got, I knew that he was the toughest man that was a part of my life. Thank you for sharing, I wish it was different for him, but I am so happy he is no longer in pain.
I'm so sorry for your loss. Your dad seems like he was an amazing person

Dude, that's the coolest artificial leg I've ever seen! It's like part of an ornate set of Medieval knight armor! Great perspective on life for anyone. I lost my best friend last summer who was one of the healthiest, fittest people I knew. Dude ran marathons, rode his trailbike for hundreds of miles at a time. One day just dropped over of a massive heart attack. They said even if he had the heart attack in an ER they likely couldn't have saved him because of the way it burst. You never know how long you have, so enjoy it while you can.

This video is exactly what I needed right now. I have been severely struggling with my mental health recently, and it has been so painful because I am an incredibly cheerful and optimistic person by nature. Not being able to feel that joy and see the world through an optimistic lense has really been difficult, but by you sharing these moments of joy with me, that spark has been revived in me. Thank you!
This is very touching to me as around 7 years ago my grandmother was diagnosed with colon cancer. She was told she had 3-5 months left to live. She has survived ever since. Recently, though, she had to have a biopsy done for some ulcers in her lungs. She has been a smoker all of her life and during the biopsy, she started to bleed in her lungs. She was on a ventilator for 5 days after this. She got off and the biopsy was continued. As we suspected, it was lung cancer. She was not able to walk after this. After physical therapy, she was able to take 15 steps. The next day, she could not stand at all. About a month prior to her biopsy (where things went wrong) she had a major pain in her left hip. This had worsened now. Turns out, she had a stress fracture in her right hip. The doctors said that it'd be an in and out surgery, but after all she's been through, it was hard to go through with this. If it worsened, it could lead to an actual break. This surgery could also be the biopsy for suspected bone cancer in that area. And, like we expected, it is bone cancer. She went home finally and has made major progress with her walking. She has 4 more radiation treatments to go and is able to walk around the house with the assistance of a walker. I tend to not be scared for the future and the things to come for her as I am focusing on the progress she has made. Seven years ago we were terrified- certain she was on her deathbed. I take it as a sign from god that he was preparing us for something... and not to be afraid when it happens. So, for anyone who has been or has a family member that is diagnosed with cancer, do not fear. One day at a time. Always tell yourself that. One day at a time. Do not give up hope, and try to be happy for your own sake. Trust me, I was scared, too, seven years ago. But, once again, one day at a time.
Hey, sharing all this in case it can help in any way. I'd feel bad if I didn't!
I've heard that things like healing the gut/microbiome with diet (keto and others), and/or intermittent fasting, and/or huge vitamin injections, like vitamin C, have helped some people recover from cancer. Look into Dr. Josh Axe. His own mother had cancer twice and was in general ill health for 10 years until she changed her diet. It helped her recover from cancer the second time!
And I've also read that there's been a huge spike in cancer cases recently. Some of the c0v1d v@ccines may cause it due to the spike proteins they contain. If you have gotten jabbed, please please look into natural methods of detoxing the spike proteins out of your body!!
And you should also know that vitamin B12 deficiency is linked to some cancers. Most doctors believe B12 deficiency only starts once the level drops to about 200 pg/mL or so -- but that's not true, as many case studies and reports show symptoms can start at 500 or even higher. It manifests differently in everyone, but it can cause depression, anxiety, symptoms like those of multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, severe developmental delay & failure to thrive in kids/babies, and crippling nerve damage and death. This list is by no means exhaustive, and again, everyone gets different symptoms! Some people have genetic mutations or other factors preventing them from getting enough B12 or absorbing it properly. Some people will need lifelong injections because regular B12 supplements just don't work for them! Thankfully, injections are cheap. Anyone experiencing neurological symptoms should have injections at least for a while. Cofactors are needed, like folate and potassium (the latter should be gotten through food, not supplements).
Please check out the work of Sally M. Pacholok and Dr. Jeffrey Stuart! They wrote the book "Could It Be B12? An Epidemic of Misdiagnoses". This book lists countless verified case reports from medical literature, detailing cases of B12 deficiency being misdiagnosed as various other illnesses, leading to terrible outcomes for those for whom it wasn't caught in time. This book could save your life or that of someone you know!
Praying for you. 💕

When one of my Dad's friends was diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung Cancer, he stayed positive throughout all of his time left. He would always go golfing, always hang out with friends, and this is what I think helped him pull through the cancer, and he beat it. I would also be so happy just to be on this planet, and not take everything for granted. Congratulations for pulling through like he did :)

I just panicked by the title, but I’m glad you’re okay. In 2018, you were supposed to drop dead but no. God has truly blessed you, Alex. I’m glad you’re okay.
When I had stage 4 cancer at 18 in 2019 I made a list of foods I wanted to eat again. It was crazy to make a list of things I wanted to eat again before I died and then to live long enough to check those items off. I never thought tacos from my favourite Mexican restaurant would be on my "things to do before I die" list but at 18 years old, they were. The way you describe the month you should have died sums up perfectly how I feel about the month I was diagnosed every year and how I feel the few days leading up to my birthday.
I had my first relapse scare in early 2021 and it was terrifying knowing that if my cancer was back I was out of options.

That's sad dude.. my condolences! Stay strong dude
Grief I would never wish upon my worst enemy. Feel that pain, become friends with it. This will make it easier to live, and move with it and challenge life again in positive ways. It’s okay to be with the grief, but it’s not okay to miss out on your own life. Make your mum proud. Start small!! A win is a win. She is proud of you
Hope u are doing fine with life
I cant even imagine losing a mother whom u rely upon most of ur life to share feelings and emotions
I understand, I recenty lost my mom to it too.
So sorry for your loss. I wouldn't make it if my mom would...I can't even write it down.
Hopefully you can find your special someone. I wish you the very best!
Absolutely love your spirit and positivity. As someone who REALLY struggles mentally to stay positive, so upbeat, stay hopeful, but has NOTHING wrong with them... I find it inspiring that you can put on a smile and laugh to a camera when life's been so.... unfair?
Kudos man. Best of luck to you.
This is really what I needed to hear right now. I am currently going through treatment for my Hodgkin's Lymphoma at 23 and I've just been so down in the dumps. My cancer is certainly nowhere NEAR as scary as stage IV lung cancer, but cancer regardless will really put you in a bad place mentally. Its like you feel just bogged down all the time, your body is full of toxic chemo drugs and every activity feels like a whole journey to complete. It is nice to hear a positive perspective during the times that things get really hard. Thanks so much, Alex!
I hope you get better physically and mentally there's a lot of support on these comments not only for Alex but other people who are staying strong don't give up its ok to feel sad but don't let that overcome you stay strong you got this :)
Its ok to feel shitty about it, dont downplay your situation! Im hoping you recover soon
I’m sorry, that really sucks! And feeling really down makes it so much harder to fight the battle you’re going through. Look for those little bits of light that help you get through the day, whether it’s music you love or a stream you can sit and watch burble by, just anything that clicks with you and helps you feel that little bit stronger. I don’t know you but sending you a ton of strength to help you get through it! 🙂
I had that same cancer at 21 chemo sucks but you'll make it through its nowhere near as bad as the subject in the video
You're not alone man. I survived Cancer too. Cancer's a bitch and a half for the person diagnosed and the people around them. I hope things are looking better for you 💙💚💚💜 My support to you, people struggling with cancer and families in grieving

Appreciate your video. It needs to be shown to people trying so hard to hustle a dollar. I never understood why people try to make money to their very last breath. We can't take any of it with us anyway. Just live in the present and enjoy our short human lives.
Regret is the biggest pain of all, stay strong dude. That goes for y'all reading this too, I guess it goes for me as well.
A true man smiles in the face of death. Even faced with death he still radiates happiness and positivity. God bless you man.
These lines are only to compensate for the fear of death. When death knocks even the bravest are afraid.
Omg, this reminds me of technoblade😢
"The moment you start dying is when you finally start to focus on living. So why not do that now?"
Thanks man. I'm 21 now, turning 22 soon. I feel like I've done nothing but watch myself grow older, wondering why I feel sad or lonely; not allowing myself to engage in the experiences or opportunities that appear because I am too fearful of the future. But if not now, when?
The positivity and joy you find in your life despite your hardships is inspirational and has further encouraged me to start taking the wheel of my own life. I want to start living. Or at least try to. It's better than just waiting and dying, right haha? Thanks for posting your journey.
I'm gonna live.
You just said everything about me 😢😢😢 . I am also going through it man 😢
I will be turning 22 this nov
God Bless man
Psalm 94, 143
Let's walk wisely man. God Bless, may you taste and see that God Is Good and be Blessed as you trust in Him. 🙏🏾
All the best to you and you all 🙏🏾
"Dying is living" - Infected from RE4
@@katzea.a7880 That's a terrible quote (to use in this context) -- but maybe that's the point.
Even still, try to think your quote through.
@@TimelessTimothyYeah I know, I jumped the shark lol
Hey there!! I just stumbled upon this video randomly and felt compelled to reach out and say THANK YOU! I can totally relate to this message. As a recent cancer survivor who beat the odds despite being considered terminal, it's refreshing to hear from another survivor who has such a bright and positive drive post-treatment. Not to say every day is all sunshine and rainbows, but it's true that the moment you start dying is when you start to focus on living. Like you, the fear that cancer will come back someday is always lingering, but we just gotta keep pushing forward and live our best life every moment we can.
Honestly, I wish I had a friend like you when I was going through it. I can tell you have such a magnetic personality. I don't know if you are ever going to see this comment, but I would love to chat some more!
-Maddie, Hodgkin's Lymphoma survivor
Hi, I just want to thank you greatly for your comment. I'm sure that you know it's greatly refreshing to hear positivity from other people who are going through the same thing you are- I was just recently diagnosed with the same Lymphoma and am currently going through chemo, but lately I've spent lots of time focusing on positives. Thank you for sharing!
Don’t DO ME LIKE THAT BRO. The title alone had me on the verge of tears ngl. But I’m glad that you’re okay because I every time I see one of your videos it just makes my day brighter. Thank you for everything you do. It really helps me out when feeling depressed. ❤
we’ve just been told my uncle (who’s like my dad) has stage 4 lung cancer, so i was terrified when i read the title and thought he could be leaving us way sooner than i expected. seeing you overcome this disease has made me a bit more hopeful, maybe he’ll stick around a little longer. so i thank you deeply, and i hope you enjoy every single day of your life
Stay strong brother, and the best wishes to your uncle
Same thing happened to my uncle a couple years back, and he’s still going strong 💪. There’s always hope for recovery, best of luck to you.
My uncle died of kidney cancer He was the kindest man and didn't even say "no" to me even once He even fixed my rc car when i was a kid
My aunt also stage 4 cancer , she was so done with cancer that she didn’t even go for chemotherapy and accepted the whatever time she has left, but by god’s grace doctors found another way to treat her cancer, and it worked she is now cancer free since 7 years and still perfectly healthy and happy. We will pray for your uncles fast recovery. MAY LORD JESUS CHRIST BE WITH U AND YOUR FAMILY….❤❤🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻Have faith God of miracles……✝️✝️
I hope the best for you and your family
I don't have any sort of sickness but I find that death has been on my mind a lot recently but seeing you tackle it like this with such optimism definitely puts my mind at ease, very inspiring, thank you
Had us in the first half, not gonna lie!
Jokes aside, glad to have been recommended this video! You're such an energetic and optimistic person! I cannot imagine how it must feel to get such a diagnosis, but I also cannot fathom the appreciation for life it gives you as well! Keep getting better everyday, bro!
For everyone, who's fighting this disease: you're all legends deserving a medal and a praise. One day this dragon will be defeated by the best scientists and doctors once and for all, with every day this victory is closer and closer, one day we'll hear around the world "No more cancer", stay positive like this man and live, live like never before.
that's me
"deacese"☠☠☠☠
Yes good encourage them to sit around for someone else to fix their problems because that's what legends do. If I ever get cancer you better believe im getting a phd in biology.
@@jasdebi9372It is NOT that easy lil bro ☠️
sorry to say but cancer is man made
Jesus that final sentence just hits so hard. You're such a real one and I'm happy you're not dealing with cancer anymore. Enjoy the new sub.
"Im very satisfied with this. Yeuhh. Oh my God"
This one?

@@savageraccoon787 "I'm gonna climb this log" is what he is referring to, must be an avid climber.
From a professional dying person 😅😅😅
Jokes aside, you are amazing!
That "I'm so happy " and "hehehe the log is climbed " was soooo wholesome!
the title: 3 months left to live; me watching this 6 months after it's release
You’re positivity is what this world needs, thank you so much for showing this world what we truly needed
This video made me feel something. I haven't experienced cancer firsthand but as an 18-year-old college student with mysterious lumps and swollen lymph nodes for over a year, I worried that I had it. Instead of getting the medical advice I needed, I simply panicked. I would sit there worrying about death, worrying I had cancer. But 2 weeks ago, I finally went to the doctor, and it wasn't cancer. I was fine, and it really made me think about life, how we waste so much time and take the little things for granted. Anyhow, I love the video, I hope you remain cancer free and I'm really happy too Alex.
personally i do not trust western medicine or doctors so to be sure i would get checked by a chinese or ayurvedic doctor and also get lymphatic drainage/massage. detox your body with charcoal and spirulina and stay away from inflammatory substances like alcohol, sugar and milk.
Wow crazy to find someone who went through the same thing I did a few years back when I was 16. I was so convinced I had lymphoma and was so scared of dying, that I went through the 5 stages of grief and in the end accepted my mortality. Turned out to be just overreactive lymph nodes that didn't go away. Now I think back on it as a kind of growing experience. I don't think I'd have as much of a hard time coping with the deadline of my life now.
@@dom4947same exact thing happened to me at the same age lol. Had surgery and it ended up not being anything bad. But I remember a point where I was coming to terms with the fact that I might die and it was ok. It wasn't even dark it was just kinda peaceful tbh. That was 6 years ago but I will never forget that experience
Yeah, it's funny how the brain works sometimes right... you hear about a sickness, you overthink it, you start seeing signs of it on yourself but turns out it ain't that.
@@Daniel-tr3zl i believe in a higher power/being (a god) but like neil degrasse tyson said either hes not all that powerful or hes not all that good. Because where is god when a newborn dies of cancer?
Even thought the situation is what almost everyone would fear, you are still so accepting and positive of the situation... You are a truly amazing person
Hey Alex, you rock!!! ❤ Thanks so much for showing us how life is like with cancer, with prosthetics! Hugs! Your channel full of helpful stuff teaches us that life, however challenging it might be, is possible and worthwhile and how to find workarounds to get through the challenges you have to face on a daily basis. Keeping my fingers crossed for you! Thx again! Take care!
Funnily enough, despite the heavy topic and the severity around it all, I couldn't help but smile for the duration of this video. Your smiles and laughs are incredibly beautiful, and the way you just decided "That looks climbable, I'ma climb that" is wonderfully precious. You using the time you have for the best you can do since you're not sure when things will catch up to you just feels so... pure. And real.
I've never seen you around before, but I am delighted to have briefly known you thus far through what you've shared here. Hold onto the life you do have, and make it a good one
Bro just scared the everliving shit out of me
me too..me too
Same 💀
I may not have cancer, and i may not have a missing body part, but anybody can, and should, apply the kind of mindset that you have. I'm glad to see you're doing well after all the struggles you've had, you're a great role model. Much love to you Alex
Its actually easier said than done some people can't go through pain so they make the worst life they could possibly live
@@sukumadehk I'm a little confused on what you're trying to say, could u clarify?
@@latrelldub not everyone can just change their mindset sometimes people know they would die and they waste they're lives and I see people trying to stop them but I say what difference does make it won't really help those people that have the idea of dying early I've seen it before it happened to my friend it didn't go so well
@@latrelldubyeah there’s actually an interesting thing that people with depression have that is basically this: They know what to do cognitively to better their situation when asked. However they have no desire to get better and actively chose the worst outcome. They essentially have no desire to do anything. Pretty scary, to have absolutely no desire and actively sabotage yourself. I would almost describe it has being the exact opposite as the man in the video. No physical ailments and wanting to die, vs extremely physical ailments and wanting to live. Getting out of that mindset is very difficult and brings into questions things as fundamental as free will. Long comment maybe you’ll read it. Good luck
@@dominicteneriello9977 ofc I'll read, and yeah it does suck I hope I never turn out Ike that
We all have to try to imagine how this feels like, being told you are gonna die, and then being gratefull for what you have
This video made my day! I have brain cancer stage 4 and lately I've been feeling kinda relaxed whatever happens, happens. Trying to enjoy every second every day and learning so much new stuff.
Wish you the best of luck and also hope you have experienced many great things in this life :)
I hope you have the best of life and heal to the fullest
Stay strong man! Don't give up!
Would you consider trying qi-gong? I work in a qigong center and there are many cancer survivors here. They’re all very healthy or become much more heathier after just 1 month of practicing
@@Soulfulboy1111 never heard of it before but I do reiki and also go to the gym to stay active but I will definitly look at it! thanks!

3 months have passed, and he just beat cancer. Perfect timing.
My father was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer in Jan 2017 we lost him in May 2017. This year my mother died of heart attack in Aug. Life will not be the same for us. I hope you survive this man. Never live with regret. Cheers

It’s so great watching this video and realising he just beat cancer! You are so resilient Alex!!!
Hey Alex, I just wanna thank you. You put things in perspective. And even though I may not have cancer your philosophy and attitude is really great. It has inspired me to start my own. Luckily enough earlier this year I went to Yosemite and it was spectacular. Thank you for everything. ❤😊
This is so contagiously happy and positive. I love his perspective on life and how he always try to keep it as something which is optimistic. Such a big inspiration to aspire to just always live and be in the moment❤
I lost my brother in 2016 to lung cancer at the young age of 56. You are so young! I am glad you are doing well, and I pray cancer doesn't find you again. And what a great spirit you have! I was afraid to click on your video, that just popped up in my suggestions. I'm glad I did. You've made my night. Thank you!
How is 56 young?
I dont mean no disrespect but he pretty much already lived his life in his prime ,old age sucks
@@JulioAl-oe6dg I'm 61. My mom died when she was 93. My sister is 75. My other brother is 74. (yes, there was a huge split in our ages) Longevity runs in the family. So 56 was young.
@@JulioAl-oe6dg56 is by no means old age. yes it is oldER but it isn’t old enough to die of old age. like at all. old age doesn’t suck it’s a gift to live longer and get older. another year lived and another new beginning. change ur perspective
@@JulioAl-oe6dg56 is young for a family member to die
@@itsnotthesamethingNo 56 isn't young if it is not that old
Just made me think of this:
Let's say you're 15
Image somebody who's 30, they are double your life.
Everything you have ever done ever, they have done all that twice, that long.
Life is long, life is beautiful.
We only ever get one chance.
This made me smile. 🙂 I got diagnosed with a terminal lung disease 3 years ago. I refuse to live like I am dying. The average life expectancy is 5 years after diagnosis with this disease . I am doing everything in my power to enhance my health and continuing to enjoy whatever I am able to do. I don’t think about dying….I think about living.
im glad youre still here
@@ImJane_. Thanks for your encouragement. 🙂 I’m not going down without a fight!
The run in the field moment from 2:42 , the little laugh, the scenery, was honestly one the most beautiful and powerful things i’ve ever watched. I wanted to go into the screen and run with you; then i thought no, this is your moment, and we are here witnessing this beautiful human being enjoying life to the fullest. Because yes, living Life to the fullest comes down to simply appreciating the simplest of things, like running in a beautiful field. Thank you infinitely for this video, i am sure you have brought such a positive impact into many people’s lives, you sure did for me. You gave me the will to live. Here’s to many more runs in fields, my dear friend :)
My grandpa recently got diagnosed with stage four lung and throat cancer. Before I went to college and I never really thought about the fact that I would never see him again. I’ve been watching you for a while and I think that you have a very positive message for people who are going through cancer and their friends and family. I really hope that everyone who sees this comment can learn to appreciate the things you have while you still have them, because they won’t last forever. So just appreciate every day you have. Much ❤️
😢Leviticus 18:22 KJV
Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. Ephesians 6:10-18 says, Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints. The bible is no old book. You have to really let Christ open your eyes; to see the world in shambles. Many people say it's a religion to lock up people in chains, and say it's a rule book.. why? Because people hate hearing the truth, it hurts their flesh, it's hurts their pride, it's exposes on what things have they done..people love this world so much, s*x, money, power, women, supercars.. things of this world. Still trying to find something that can fill that emptiness in your heart. You can't find that in this world.. only in Christ, the bible is no chains, it's a chainbreaker. Breaking your sins into pieces... Repent now, and turn back to the true Lord only.. God bless.
😢😢😢
the "hehehe" as you ran through the field made my day haha. Congrats on celebrating life. Made me realize just how great today is because I am alive!
You scared me!! I’m glad you’re staying on this earth for longer and of course so happy you’ve started completing your bucket list! Can’t wait to see more ❤
My mom had stage 4 bladder cancer. The cancer had spread to her brain and she was also given three months to live. She tried to fight through as she made it six months.
Thank you for making this video because it helps me understand what she went through.
My grandma's neighbour has been terminally ill with cancer for 17 years now. She's been travelling and living life, despite the insane odds she's overcome. That inspires me as much as you do.
I think you’re more blessed than you think. Most people live their lives without thinking about the end. But you get to prepare yourself with a bucket list most people don’t get a chance to.
You’ve become so wise for such a young age. The challenges you’ve faced has formed the amazing person you’ve become. Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us all. Besides entertaining us you also are making an impact on us.

Honestly, I had no idea who you were before this video was recommended to me, but after watching it, I have subscribed so I can never miss another minute of your pure happiness and positive outlook on life! People don't realise what they have until it's gone, or in this case, until you're told it's going to be taken away. I myself am a victim of this mentality, telling myself "I have time", but the truth is, time is something that is never guaranteed. So while you're here on this depressing rock, spread some positivity around and maybe one day, someone will take to your words and start living their days as if it was their last!
For someone suffering so much, his face never fails to shine with a beautiful smile.
Makes you think how minuscule your problems really are, and ultimately, makes you smile.
Thank you, Alex.
Hope you're doing ok.
