"Even if Joel doesn't change the world, he's changed my world." oh wow that is such a beautiful statement. I do feel that way about my boys as well.
I cried so much when I played the game based off this, Joel is the cutest kid ever in it. It shares memories they had like making a mess of a dozen eggs on the ground and Elijah said “I think we wanna be cookers” my heart melted. But there were moments they said there might never be that day, that one day you know he’s going to be ok. If you guys would like to experience this game it is called (That Dragon, Cancer). And if you know someone that is going threw cancer just stay by then cherish the memories with them and have high hopes. Just keep pushing through no matter what life throws at you.
I’m so proud of these parents for praying.
Same here. I think of my life before my 3 children and after and I cant imagine how I enjoyed life before them.
It's Ao jars to think of losing a child
Been there, done that. But love is always there.
@@erinlawson2895 why?
I hate that these things happen to babies, man. Such innocence at a young age. So sad and heartbreaking.
Agreed
Lunar Skies ya really I’m so sorry! GOD be with you!
Exactly my point....I loose faith in God when this happens....so sad to watch
Sorry if i seem heartless, but a baby does not realize it is alive, they don’t care about their life, once they grow up and realise that they are in this universe for real, the pain is real, a baby does not know it is here, you do, so make your days count now you know you exist, and just take in the fact that YOU do know what pain is
Ik bc I have a baby sister and it breaks my heart:,(
I’m atheist and I cried my eyes out when she talked about being grateful to god. Especially during her elevator prayer. Peace to their family. #gracefortoday
Thank you :) a am glad u aren't one of those athiest who be like "Kfbbh ShHe bEliVed God Oh WrlL rIq To fOrcE hEr nOt tO" I am happy that you accepted her even tho she believes in God
Marieta it’s what I wrote now have a good day. Lol
I’m an atheist and I truly hope that their is a god and that Joel and other beautiful humans have a peaceful place to thrive. While to me it seems like a fairytale, I hope I’m wrong. Joel deserves the absolute best and all the joy in the world, truly.
We can not exist eternally so no, death is the end
@@mzp0701 No. NO god.
I don’t know how parents survive this heartache. I’m in awe of these people and so glad they could turn to god.
This just shows that we cant do anything without his strength🙏🏾
@@La_belleg +0000000000000000000000000000
We can all pray to God, He will always be there when you do. Never a busy signal
If there really was a god children wouldn't be born so poorly to live a short life then die.
@@Justabitnosey human factors cause most of the problem not God, if you have no relationship with God fine, then don't expect anything. God never goes where He's not wanted. You want or need him then He's there. If you don't He will leave you alone as you want. You can't have it both ways
Oh God that scan review.
"Oh my precious"
"Let's go get our baby, do you wanna go get our baby?"
Absolutely shattered my heart.
This :-(
Oh my heart!!! You can feel the love of this precious momma and daddy
:(
Mine too
That's exactly when I cried.
That was sweet when the doctor petted the dad on the shoulder
Just Jules I thought that too. I don’t know why that stood out to me so much. 😥
That is a truly good man right there. We need more like him.
Just Jules ❤️🙏
Just Jules I am so thankful to see that I wasn’t the only one find comfort in his gesture.
Just Jules feels like the doctor is saying don't worry everything's going to be alright. That we're here for you ❤️🙏
Joel’s dad seriously looks like he’s in so much pain. And Joel seems to be feel pain but also is happy in time to time.
Did he die
Joel's dad looks so sad thorough the whole video, it hurts
- pankamaci He truly looks heartbroken. The mom’s strength is astonishing. I know most of us Moms just hold everything in until we feel it’s safe and everyone else is taken care of. But I don’t know if I could look my child in they eyes knowing he’s not going to live and not break down.
Kpop is trash
Water Sheep what
Whoosh If gay ?
Whoosh If gay who tf mentioned kpop man???
Everyone please stop criticising about Joel's mum believing in God. That's her choice, not yours. Believing that Joel would get better was half of the cure. Honestly, I don't believe in God, but you should treat me with the same respect as anyone would, whatever their belief or religion.
Edit: Seems I caused an uproar on a comment I apparently made 4 years ago lmao what is this
Starlight 0487 I get why people don’t believe and why does she coz if he answered her prayers he’d still be here. Ya know that’s allot for people to understand even me. But I guess having someone to blame always makes it easier to understand to comprehend something like this happening to a child anyone but a child is difficult to understand.
Pamela Spatzler as my dad once told me people have to have something to believe in.
True, just a shame it's not each other.
Starlight 0487
Adding on to that, if you had nothing else to do I bet you would try praying too because it's your last resort 😢
9:11 THAT is true strength. The very definition. Finding out your _child_ ...the person you love the most, isn’t going to make it. And you cry and pray, and then you go up to your kid and act like nothing’s changed and you hold it all in to be there for your kid. I got goosebumps. I’m holding back tears. These parents are amazing and strong and full of love. I hope someday I can be even half as strong as they are.
I totally agree.
Gosh, I'm at work and I couldn't hold back my tears. Thinking about my son... and from now on cherishing every moment. My chest hurts in sentiment. I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope you're in a better place Joel.
And the mother is absolutely radiant the entire time too. Shes so beautiful.
this comment made me cry
I remember when our son was diagnosed with leukemia. I spent one night crying and wondering how you go on without someone you've loved and raised for 19 years. After that God gave me the grace to be okay with letting him go, if that was God's will, and I never shed another tear. Fortunately that wasn't what God wanted at the time. Our son is 3 years in remission and recently married.
That dragon, Cancer is probably one of the most heartbreaking yet beautiful games I’ve ever played. Joel is at peace now, but the amount of time he spent with his family he lived a hard but wonderful life. Rest easy little man x
I was gonna ask if this was the couple that made the game. I thought it sounded familiar.
It is in order to cope of the loss of their son
anyone else here from That Dragon Cancer? I still think about that game to this day despite it being so long since it was released.
@Xx_HelenSpooky_xX who?
Yea i remember not even knowing that it was based on a true story and just told my parents to buy the game on my iPad and they did
Bro I didn’t even know that they had actual footage of him like this. Really does bring him to life for us.
Yeah I'm here too
i came here from markiplier and the game was so sad and inspiring they way they tried to stay strong for him. and this really gives you a more realistic view to it. The only thing i can say now is: he is fine now, the pain and illness is gone and he never ever has to feel it again. And i hope the parents are at peace thinking the same and knowing they did the best they could.
But the coolest part...Joel did change the world. That game has affected SO many people! Maybe someone played that or saw a lets player play that and will be the person so inspired they cure cancer. Joel did change the world. And Joel inspired so many of us.
Well said
Marlissa Cunningham true
Marlissa Cunningham :)
Marlissa Cunningham
Let's hope
Did anyone else want to hold Joel and hug him? Omg I just want to squeeze him! I love him!
Yea he’s a beautiful little boy😭😭😘
Me, I want to just kiss him and hug him. His so cute
He sadly passed away :(
@@galacticjewels7856 aaaawwww dont know what to say, so sad
xXDOGGO Xx I wanted to just hug the parents without any words💕
His mom smiles so much in this video and then you saw that one moment where you could SEE the sadness in her heart. Breaks my heart for this family.
Yeah, I didn’t get her smiling while getting the bad news that the cancer had spread. Maybe it was her way of coping and I know she loved him deeply.
I watched this video thinking how dare I complain about things in my life when I actually should be so grateful for what I have and my health. Lord, please wrap your arms around these amazing, loving parents and Joel's family and continue to guide them. And Joel, I hope you are sharing that infectious giggle with everyone in paradise! God bless you all!❤
Goodbye Joel I hope you live in a better place
a potato yeah
Please don't say that or he might not make it
Victoria Martinez what do you mean by " he might not make it"?
That dragon, cancer
Joel passed away on Thursday, March 13th, 2014. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family. For contact information, and more on Joel's story visit: www.joelevangreen.com.
His mom is one of the most strongest women I’ve ever seen. They just told her that her baby is dying and not one time did she break down or said anything negative. It was nothing but her faith that kept her strong and in one piece so she can be there and be strong for her baby. God bless this family!
Дж.
When she got the MRI results you could tell how hard they are trying to keep back tears.
'My precious " I cried so much!
Yeah, the doctor, too
It's nice to see Joel get love 6 years after. Hope everyone is doing well
A friend of mine , her mom is one of my besties, has a married daughter 5 years, early may the daughter thought her sons neck glands looked swollen, they took him to the doctor, who said it’s just viral it will go away in a few days… in a few days he didn’t seem like a 3 yr old, they took him back and dr ran tests, he has on Hodgkin’s lymphoma. He’s had a round of what will be many rounds of chemotherapy. It does not look good, they are very religious , and asked people to pray. I’m atheist, they know that, I can send him good wishes, hope for a long life. I’m a retired nurse as I stated before sometimes patients who were very ill would ask me to pray with them, I would bow my head, when they were done I was done. Sometimes they just needed a kind face to hold their hand. I never said I dont pray. I would never disrespect myself that way. A few of my fellow nurses felt I was doing wrong by holding a hand and bowing my head.
I think he actually passed away within months
@@estherpennington7826 he died at the age of 4
I wouldn't be able to handle it, these people are strong.
DJ TigerSt I know it would be hard, but I have seen the strength God has given to people. These people rely on him for courage and perseverance. It's not for everyone, but it works.
DJ TigerSt me either I just couldn't ever imagine losing my babys especially at such a young beautiful age
DJ TigerSt n
DJ TigerSt You have to keep living you can’t just die. They have other kids that need them and depend on them. You grieve for a lifetime, but you can’t just give up living.
jillbeful as much as you’d want to you just can’t give up.
"That Dragon, Cancer" brought me here :(
And me
Me too
Same :(
The one from Markiplier brought me here and bawled my eyes out for both videos!
Same :-(
His momma is such a sweetheart 😭😭😭
Today marks 6 years without you Joel. I hope heaven is beautiful buddy.
He got giant pancakes and pugs just like in the game
He lives on in them
When the doctor patted his dad's shoulder i almost lost it. That is an incredible doctor to know that in that moment Joel is falling asleep so the parents need more comfort at that point. I wish, if i ever had to go through something this devastating with my daughter (and hopefully i never will), that i have a doctor that compassionate.
Hollie Moss, so true, when I had a severe stroke, I was in a coma for 2 weeks. My son, 16 at the time never left my room. he was so scared that I would die. But a doctor came in and comforted him. I pulled through and doing fine, but now my son is in the process of
becoming a doctor, all because one doctor took the time to sit and answer his questions.
I said the same thing
He didn't say a word, but he didn't need to. That shoulder pat said it all.
paediatric doctors are some of the most fantastic people on earth. I was chronically sick through my whole childhood starting at age 7 and all the doctors and nurses made it so much easier for both me and my parents. They are true heroes
Yes. So touching.
And here I m complaining about how unfair my life is because some asshole betrayed our marriage. God forgive me and bless all the people that go through such hardship.
Same dude same
U will find the right one don't be sad
Bibi Roberts it’s okay to think life is unfair pain is pain no matter how small you may think it is you still feel pain. I’m sorry for what happened to you.
While there's life, anything is possible. Everything else will pass, no emotional pain is forever.
I guess your marriage proposal got rejected.
Dear Joel's parents, I want to thank you for your courage to share your faith and story on UA-cam. No words can describe what you went through. I really hope you are doing better.
Joel, you changed the world. We love you, little guy.
Hello so the baby passed away
Very sad. Joel had wonderful parents for his time on earth.
Sheila Beautiful parents
@Kelly Oyen What are you on about mate, his father made a game about his time with Joel, the good and the painful. He passed away March 13th 2014.
Das stimmt. Wie viel Kraft braucht man, um DAS zu ertragen ?
Ich wünsche der Familie das Allerbeste
I'll be completely honest, because it's stories like this that really put life into perspective. These parents have SO much love and compassion... if only everyone loved this much, it'd be a touch of heaven here on earth. Becoming a mom at 19 (almost 28 now), I think back on how I took being a mom for granted. I honestly felt "burdened" as horrible as that sounds. Of course I loved him always but I wasn't given him 100% of a mother that every child deserves.
It wasn't until my childhood best friend died of a pain med overdose (she had MS) at 25, my cousin passed in his sleep from a genetic heart condition (that I also have, but have an implanted defibrillator that saves my life) at 26, his mom & my aunt passed in a freak accident where a tree fell on her, and my 16 year old neighbor died of a heroin overdose within 6 weeks that I realized how much I didn't value life and how self centered I really was.
I remember giving my childhood friend's mother a hug at her funeral and I said to her how terribly sorry I was for her loss. I promised her in that moment that I even though I can't understand why things happen the way they do, I would change my thinking and be the best mom I can be and look at being a mom as the most incredible gift, a blessing, because here she was in a place where she wanted nothing more than to have her daughter back... and here I was not realizing how blessed I was to have such an amazing son with a beautiful soul. Realizing that and looking at my own character defects, I made huge changes in my life.
I was always so pist off at God over everything- the fact that he took my cousin, aunt, and friend... and not me because I was miserable on my own pity pot, the fact that I had a potentially fatal heart condition. I had this epitome at my cousin's funeral where I thought "Wow... God really believed in me that he felt I was strong enough to handle this." I also got to help save lives by participating in scientific research. My deadly heart condition also saved my life as crazy as that sounds because I would've done every drug in the book and be dead from that for sure. My friend's heart is still beating to this day... in someone else. Six people were saved in her dying.
My now almost 8 year old boy recently wrote me a letter. The letter said "I love you to the moon and back. You are the best mom in the whole world. You are loveable and a gift." It really amazed and shocked me that he really believed that I, ME, was even considered a gift by him. But lesson learned that EVERYONE is a gift... to someone. My point is is that next time you feel like your life sucks, catch yourself, think of stories like this, change your thinking and find the silver linings in things because there ALWAYS is one. Every day is a gift so don't take it for granted and always remember that stars can't shine without darkness :)
+Elizabeth Arndt God bless you and Your Child! I'm sure he's in heaven, with the Almighty High God. And the rest of your friends and families. that Died. I know it's hard, Our life is short but we have to be strong until we die as in old lady/man. God Gives us a trial on earth. We shall not Hate on God. Because he's the creator. You are not suffering alone. People have suffer too. Jesus went through your pain, everything you do, He's watching us and also God is watching us. My friend who is a mormon, She have alot of problems and have to take 25 pills a day, and she told me god gave her a trial on earth. I dunno/forgot What the trials are. but if you search up, Why does god allow us to go through trials and tributions? or you already know what God is making us do. But Life can be tough sometimes you'll have to stick with your life. You can blame God for the pain you went through, but Adam and eve is the one who choose to eat the tree of knowledge, and they brought out death/pain, suffering, and sorrow through the world. Alot of sins in this world, but we should love our enemies and forgive. Forgive and forget.
wat?
*v* Amen! He's preparing us for a greater destiny :)
:D
What is (ms)
He couldnt have been any sweeter or cuter. I loved when he told the turkeys bye and blew kisses. Just precious
Just watched that as I read your comment. Precious.
And thus, a That Dragon Cancer was made to honor Joel’s memory
Rest In Peace little Joel 🕯
Actually they made the game before Joels death. It was only about halfway through making the game did he die.
Ohh.... When did he die? 😢
I'm really glad they made it, I saw matkiplier play through it and it really puts you in their shoes and makes you empathise for them,rest in peace joel
@@spicyfriedfries true, but they made the game understanding that they're time with him was limited. They wanted to make something to honor his memory
rest in peace… 💙
Joel's laugh is beautiful! It just makes me cry tears of joy! ☺ 😢
Same here
Omg yes 😌he's in a better place now at least 😊
He died rip
I think all children's laughter is beautiful.
In relation to religion; When you have nothing left to hang onto, your faith can help you to keep on going.
Yeah i agree on this.

And people still actually believe in God
Wow

@@Chlekaz0 When it comes to religion. If you don't believe in God that is fine. You need to respect their belief or in other words have an open mind.
When the anesthesiologist reached out and patted Dad’s shoulder...someone invisible started cutting onions right here. That’s what the difference is between being a “medical caretaker” vs “practicing medicine.” I know firsthand how difficult it is to differentiate those two things, but it’s so, so important.
My little sister died 16 years ago with at brain tumour at 4 years old, I was 7 when it happened and it’s the most heartbreaking thing ever, to this day I think about her and miss her everyday😭❤️ heart is breaking for this family and what they have been through xx
I’m so sorry 😢
May god bless you and your sister
I don't think anybody can understand what his father and mother have gone through emotionally and physically-I have so much respect for them it has to be the worst feeling and hope that they know how many people care about their story
This is extremely sad and That Dragon Cancer brought me here and I cryied.
Me too.I felt like crying so bad.
xXMLGProFinderXx same I came from jack, and he made me cry
xXCuteMelonBabyXx and he died
William Shakespeare in 2014

I watch this and I ache. I am a mom of a child who survived a brain tumor. I pray for families like ours. Noone will ever know the true struggles we face as warrior families unless they too are put to these tests. God bless you and yours. I'm terribly sorry he was taken too soon. Rest easy sweet child!
I was a pediatric oncology nurse for many years. I started taking care of my bald babes at 23yo, right out of nursing school. I was so blessed to help many leave this physical world. I was honored to love them, their families and loved ones. Caring for them really taught me everything I need to know about life. Just love everyone you come in contact with. Love is all that we have. Love is all that we need. Choose to be kind and loving. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
So what do you want a gold star?
@@astardustparade wow. I'm sorry you're miserable
I'm ended up here because I am going into nursing and considering being a pediatric oncology nurse. I don't know if I'm strong enough though - I cried in this video. I guess time will tell whether I can handle it or not.
You about a smart a s ain't you!! All these folks wanna talk crap behind their phone cuz they so miserable and they want every body else to be that way !!! How would you like a gold star up your m...m nobody thinks your funny that's a baby ......karma may visit you and if you had kids god may give them all cancer or maybe YOU!! BET YOU WANT TALK LIKE THAT ON HERE THEN!!
@@astardustparade she deserves one....what you deserve isn't appropriate for me to say on here
"It's not the worst thing in the world to be needed"...thank you for that. I'll remember that when I'm feeling overwhelmed with my three boys. I admire your strength and fortitude...stay encouraged.
Thank you for pointing this out Tikitta
Exactly that hit me hard 😭
She constantly mentions God, because she had 100% faith that he would take care of Joel. Its obvious that when she smiles, shes trying to keep a positive outlook because she still has hope in that tragic situation, so let her express her faith and suck it up. At least she and her family don't mope around all sad and depressed, their faith and hope is something I would definitely model my outlook on life with. R.I.P. Joel.
And see,it’s sad that they have to act happy around Joel and their other kids,they don’t want their children seeing them hurt and that’s understandable.
I love that she has her faith in God and prays...without it what else is there. I'm a believer myself and pray constantly. RIP sweet Angel Joel...☝️💔😇💙
Did he died?
@@hi-hi2574 yes.
God is love. He is all we need.

The laughter of a child is the most beautiful sound in the world. The crying of a child breaks my heart and makes me cry, even in public sometimes.

@@dragon4938 I don’t think there is space for jokes in this comment section
Sometimes kids cry because they didn’t get a 3rd Cookie. It’s not that heartbreaking when they cry.
@@thetruthdatedr.4766 Thank you for telling me my feelings are wrong. Maybe it’s because my children didn’t cry over the small things. I can tell the difference between a tantrum and a distressed cry while you obviously cannot.
@@mindrolling24 The way you feel about children crying is how I feel when I hear animals/ puppies cry
I'm experiencing sort of the same thing with my little brother. He got diagnosed last year with leukemia and he has been getting chemo and lots of medicines every single day, we have seen so many of his hospital friends relapse and die and it's been heartbreaking, He had been doing so well for the past year and a half and out of nowhere his leukemia came back about three days ago and I am balling my eyes out praying for him and all of the little kids in the world to get healed, it's just so unfair for little kids to get sick at such young age, And I really want to send my best wishes to Joel and all the kids in the world that are going through a similar situation, My best wishes and prayers to everyone
Acabo de leer lo de su hermano. Espero que cuando escribo estas líneas, su hermano se encuentre fuerte,con salud y saliendo de la enfermedad. Un abrazo desde España.
Stay strong. I wish the best for you and your family. Know that if your brother does pass away, he is not suffering anymore. Maybe he'll meet Joel in heaven.
Carla Garcia stay strong. God Is always with you.
I love how they keep God in their center day by day. “Grace for that day” ❤️
This family is a testament of God's strength and peace. The optimism they showed throughout all the pain they felt, and the confidence they had in God amidst all their trying times, it's certainly an encouragement. When she said "there's enough grace for today, and though it feels as if there won't be enough grace for next month or next week, there's still enough grace for today" I broke down in tears. Those words will forever resonate with me. This family is certainly a blessing. May God comfort and bless your hearts and you continue to commit your lives to Him. And remember, you'll see your baby again.
Amen🙏💖❤💓
Amen
Ameen Subhanallah.
Amen❤
Joel, you’re on heaven’s golden shores. You’re in the comforting arms of Jesus, never to feel pain again. 💙
joel, he was taken away from this world to early we wanted him to stay but life thought otherwise and took him from his parents hands. Rest in peace joel you will never be forgotten
people who die so early like this, are such good people that this world doesn't deserve them.
He looked like such a happy boy.
if he would of lived another day I would of prayed for him to see what it would be like. he would see what love would be and that. we would see the world and what it like
The mom broke my heart what an amazing mom❣️
Imagining being the doctor who tells parents , that their kid has cancer ... that must Be a difficult job
i could've cried more without this loud music!
I just finished the game based on this little child ( That Dragon Cancer )
Terrible and Wonderful at the same time! no need to explain
Yes it's life changing such a powerful message
+ZackTeaGaming How is it possible that i did not cry watching this video but , i cried at the end of that game That Dragon Cancer.
That Dragon Cancer is based on Joel
R.I.P Joel :(
Please explain
No worry guys my eyes are just sweating and my heart is tired. That's why my heart is beating so fast
Man, the onions we're all cutting up are real aren't they?
I will pray for you r famly
That dragon, cancer isn’t a game, Its a story about this boy who lost his life so early, RIP
I feel This, I remember the day I woke up in the middle of the night just to have my dad tell me that my uncle died, the amount of emotion going through my mind trying to comprehend what I was told, and he didn't even die peacefully, he stepped on a mine, which ended up blowing him up, I couldn't even stand going to the funeral, I wanted some time to calm down, it was my first time seeing a loved one die, I hope the best for this family and may Joel rest in peace up there.
My this beautiful little boy be at peace. My condolences to his family. May God give you peace in knowing Joel's in his arms.
loch70 What?
loch70 my bad it was towards Tyler green
The parents are some of the most amazing people on these documentaries
this broke my heart to see how happy they were and suddenly he dies...
My heart breaks for this family💔💔💔 no parent should have to watch their child die. Babies should NEVER have to worry about dying in her childhood. These parents are SO INCREDIBLY STRONG. When my mom was sick with cancer I was a mess and I fell apart. 11 months after finding out she was sick, I lost her. As she was taking her last breaths I turned around and left because I couldn't watch. No one had to tell me that she was gone because I already knew. August 7th 2017 was the worst day of my life. I skipped everything and stayed with my family. There was no way I was leaving the house.
I really hope heaven is real. Joel deserves it 😳
Joel deserves his whole segment of heaven for him and the rest of his family.
Don’t worry, it most definitely is and he is there- happy and healthy, joined with all the other children like him and with Jesus, waiting for their families to reunite with them. That’s the saddest part of death, those left behind who mourn them. He is in a new body and so very happy now, no pain
Don't worry, it is.
I'm sure it us...
It is
When his big brother prayed.... awww! Its so nice to hear a brother cares for a brother that much... so sweet! God bless Joel and his life. He was such a cute little boy!!
I’ve been watching these videos today and I truly hope those who were left behind are all doing okay today. RIP Joel. 💛

This video was so emotional for me. I have been doing foster care & fost-adopt, on & off, for 20 years now. The babies and toddlers I take are the ones who nobody wants. After 20 years, that's still a difficult reality to accept. These are babies who come home with me from the NICU....where the NICU has become home. Micropreemies with severe global developmental delays who live with a trachea and ventilator, but give and receive so much love. Infants born with very serious birth defects. Babies who have been home a few weeks to a few months, completely typical babies without problems, who are then victims of abusive head trauma (shaken baby syndrome.) and the spectrum of all different ways babies can be abused or neglected.
This is a tragic story. The parents looked at the cancer he had, and said, "Not yet!"
Their faith in God was so strong and I am so happy to see that SoulPancake was willing to show that, and how that improved life for each and every family. Thanks.
You’re an amazing person 💜💜
Not to the kids tho so
Angels come in human form. You are one of them.
Bless you for what you do.
Thank you for fostering those babs💕 if i had the house and money i would foster
didnt even realize this was the family from That Dragon Cancer until I heard their voices. you guys are so amazing for keeping your sons memory alive and for being such wonderful parents to all 4 of your kids. god bless.
“There’s worse things in the world than to be needed” 😭 bless this family.
Joel was so lucky to have such amazing parents! And they were so blessed to have had him even though it was not near long enough!
joel where ever you are , your dads game, story about you was a major impact to us . they love you. it won an award , the most impacting game I think . they miss you and we all love you....
R.I.P sweet baby boy
I’m an atheist ….but I’m still crying, and feeling heartbroken for this beautiful family on the other side of the world. What amazing,loving strong parents. Life isn’t fair 😢
“It’s not the worst thing in the world to be needed.”

Words that I’ll try to always remember as I just had my first born. I’m grateful that she’s healthy and I’ll try to not take anything for granted.
That compassionate touch by the doctor for Joel's dad at 6:03...
So sweet and so kind
Me too I noticed it and thought he's an awesome Dr!!!

Oh I feel with you. My doughter went to heaven when she was 10 months also at cancer, leukemie, I feel with you. Greetings from The Netherlands, Anne
God Bless You
The mom 🙏 in elevator.... amazing I felt myself praying with her. Broke me in tears.. now he's God's little 😇
I'm so sorry for your loss, sincerely.
Joel was a lucky young boy...he knew love, happiness, and joy...what could be better than that!
He was definitely a 'daddy's boy'. He couldn't have had better parents.
You will both smile remembering your precious boy, his laughter, the love he had from the both of you, and the love he so generously gave back. 🥰😇
This is late but I just find your faith in God so beautiful.
God is our only hope when all else fail.
Joel lived his short life and gave so much...sweet giggle laughs...taught his papi unconditional love...showed his syblings that death is a natural thing and how by knowing whete you're going, makes it ok.
Now
hes at a better place.
With God his maker and heavenly Father.Amen
When he giggled it just broke my heart all while smiling. Its amazing how innocent child are.
AMEN AMEN.
Amen
God bless you
There is no god. We all die.
Joel was with the most loving and beautiful family. What a beautiful boy. My heart goes to them.
He's such a happy boy, even with all the suffering he's gone through. That laugh and that smile. The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long.
We lost our 18 year old son to bone cancer, 26 years ago. Our faith is what got us through, it has been a long and painful journey, but thanks to Him, we are still here, still clinging onto the hem of His garment. Joel is safe, along with our son, it is not easy picking up the pieces but if you trust and have faith, everything in the end comes together. Bless this family for their love, strength and undying faith.
Atleast Joel is happy now, with my grandmothers and everyone else's friends and family.
LPS frick Productions I wish everybody went to heaven 😕
Rest in peace sweet boy, and love and prayers for your wonderful family.
When Joel started blowing the animal kisses, that's exactly what my son does. Joel has touched my heart, the entire family has. All I want to do now, is hold my little boy forever and treasure each moment I have with him. Thank you for sharing this powerful documentry
The mother, my heart , she’s so strong
A true worrier
I kept having to take breaks from Mark's playthrough of That Dragon, Cancer because it was so heartwrenching. I know it doesn't help or comfort, but he's no longer suffering. Rest in peace, Joel.
I watched Ethan and I did the same thing...
Joel has changed my world today.
After looking at Joel courage and his parents courage I have no right to complain about life. He is such a inspiration for me
I love your love for the Lord. I’m so thankful God chose you to be Joel’s mommy and daddy. Your testimony is so very encouraging. Thank you for your boldness in Christ and for posting this video🥰
My mom was diagnosed with cancer and I've been a walking zombie since, pretty much. But man, we haven't been through 1/100th of what this family has gone through. Thank you guys for recording this even in the midst of your struggle. It really ministered to me.
good luck going through this Maddie, I bet its tough
Thanks, man. Yes, it's tough. She started her chemo and IT SUCKS. Breaks my heart.
God bless you...
I'm heartbroken. Just remember, God will always be there for you. Rest easy Joel
We all miss you Joel, I hope god is looking after you up there in heaven.
This mom (family) is a rockstar! I'm soooo sorry for your loss.
Wow that was so humbling to see Joel's moms faith..
I'm sitting here balling my eyes out and weeping like a child, and I ask myself why God does this and why he did this to this sweet little kid. :( but I know God has a plan for all. Rest in paradise Joel ❤️
+Queen Emely same
It is because his life was done. God had no more tasks/reasons for him to stay. Think about it: Joel made his family proud and happy. He made them giggle when he giggled. He did all he had to do. But now he is suffering, screaming... dieing and God does not want him to suffer that way, so he took Joel to the heavens. Joel was... ready to go.
+OldMcNarwhal Not just Joel's family is proud but so the gamers/viewers too. He made such an impact on everyone.
Queen Emely I agree
+Queen Emely God is good and one day we will see him with no more pain and tear.
I'm sure there's more to her she doesn't show, but I seriously admire Amy's strength. I only hope I could be so strong going thru something like that God bless her
It makes my heart ache that Joel is no longer here. God bless him and his family
This is so sad 😢😢😢
and who ever disliked this video is
heartless souless creatures
They disliked it most likely because they don't believe in God and don't like people praying on camera.
People might dislike because thet couldn't hamdle the sadness
ITS OK THOSE PPL CAN'T STAND UP FOR THEM SELFS THERE SCARED OF ALL OF THE LOVE
Often people do not want to press like when the subject is this sad since it is in their mind liking the death of a child.
Ya Stoned? maybe they are disliking because they don't like that Joel is dying and they don't like how sad this is
Watched this after seeing the game, that dragon, cancer. I'm in tears
So sorry for your loss
Joel was a courageous little boy, And he appears to be very happy, always laughing and smiling
He's a cutie,
Let your life reflect the goodness of God.
Amen "There's grace for today"
