Cancer is depressing. (Sony FX3)

- Isolation.
This experience with leukemia has been tough physically. I’ve been struggling for months to put into words what I’ve felt like mentally and if I had to describe it in one word it would be, isolating. If someone in your life is going through this, don’t just check in once. Don’t just send a card or a text. Keep showing up. Ask them about something other than their treatment. Make space for the person they still are, even if they don’t feel like that person anymore. Because trust me, they need it more than they’ll ever tell you I know I do.

The fact that you’re still able to create such masterpieces in these difficult times says a lot about you brother. Wishing you a quick recovery. One of the biggest inspirations of photography - filmmaking UA-cam. The 🐐
For real!
I have a deep respect for your honest voice.
I have a friend who is also dealing with cancer and you described it perfectly. I will always remember my friend how he was. I wish you full recovery.
🤎 sending love to you and your friend
I'm praying for you health being may christ restore your health and transform your cancer into strength..❤ love and peace of the lord I leave with u @@vuhlandes
@@vuhlandesI’m praying for you keep your head up your still inspiring us even in tough times ur bringing us life🧡 remember bro Matthew 4:23-25 saying he can heal ALL sicknesses also try some natural remedies and foods like ginger,garlic,turmeric(in moderation),Vitamin D and other vitamins,fish,berries,nuts,
leafy greens,green tea,grapes and cannabis oil or help if ur interested one love 🧡
I've been following your channel for years, quietly, without leaving any comments. This is probably the first comment I've left on UA-cam in many months. You are such an inspiration, and I know you already recognize your own strength and talent. I truly appreciate the effort you've put into your videos, and I can't wait to see how you continue to grow as a creator. Much love, Chris Must List
You’re in all of our prayers man, keep fighting 🙏🏾
The world needs more of a young generation like you, creative, insightful, profound…. Kiddo, don’t give up, you got this.
This is art. I can not even begin to describe the impact that this film had on me. Documenting your journey is helping so many of us. I dont know you, I can't relate to you, but I sincerely hope that you continue to use your platform to speak, motivate, and inspire.
Thank you for sharing these videos. I'm part of a palliative care organization at UF Health Shands hospital called Streetlight, and because of this organization, I have formed relationships with many cancer patients. Its truly inspiring seeing their strength, but just because they are strong does not mean they don't struggle every day of their treatment. Before every Streetlight shift, us volunteers engage in a "focus" to learn more about the patient populations we serve. Themes for the focus usually revolve around our patient's identities, lives, how to deliver end-of-life care, etc. I am a captain on shift, meaning I help lead the group of volunteers that day, and one shift every semester the captains get to choose a focus. I decided to show the first two of your Cancer Diary videos becuase I felt that the themes and reflections you shared align perfectly with what Streetlight is all about. We ensure that these patients' identities are held as sacred as possible by creating posters for them with their favorite things, talking about their hobbies and interestes, and celebrating milestones (like birthdays) with parties of their choice. We try and show them that they are so much more than their disease. Your videos are so powerful and show common struggles that cancer patients have to go thorugh. These videos will help many cancer patients who are also feeling isolated feel like they are not alone, but they also have helped the volunteers on my shift become more educated on the emotions associated with cancer treatment so we are better able to serve our patients. Because of the relationships I have made with patients, like you, I have a new outlook and appreciation for the life I have. I have learned to carry those that were lost with me so I can become a better, kinder person. I love your optimistic outlook on your disease, becuase that is so necessary for something as life changing as a cancer diagnosis. Keep staying strong thorough the rest of your journey, and thank you again for documenting your experience!
I recently watched a documentary on palliative care. You guys are awesome! No one is ready to die but when you have a terminal illness, it's that care and attention that makes it easier to say goodbye to life.
When it's _my time_ I want staff to play me Jimmy Buffett songs 😂 No time to be sad, I've had a fairly decent life! Hope I can taste rum and tiramisu for the last time and go out in style...
As someone who’s currently going through it again at 34… WOW! I felt this in my soul. I started a UA-cam channel to show my loved ones who I am after all that happened. To show them I have good days too 😊 stay strong amigo ❤
_The way the music suddenly stops, like an illness taking life away.. just like that_
Words cannot express it, but please remember that you are not alone
you inspire me everyday. the reason why i ever picked up a camera, i’ll keep praying for you.
The abrupt cuts at the end of each scene really bring home the feeling of "oh, you thought we were doing a thing. that stopped. next." We're still here to hear your story. You got this.
your cinematography is UNMATCHED!!
I pray this chapter is one you look back on with gratitude. I'm rooting for you!
Im a cancer survivor.. it's definitely tough God is real... keep🙏🏽
That picc line brings back memories ... it's been over 5 years since I beat cancer and I know you will too. The way you are documenting this you will appreciate one day. Keep doing your thing, drink water, get sunlight, & stay positive brother.
The fact that you’re still documenting your life shows how strong of a person you truly are. Sending love and light your way.
Take care, man. Greetings from the Czech Republic.
You based in Prague?
Yes 😊 @@chancellorwarhol
This was so powerful, the fact that you still produce such beautiful videos despite going through what you go through says a lot about your resilience. You're going to beat this sickness, it will make you stronger and yes it has changed you from within, but it will inspire you for the future. I almost had tears watching this because this was so genuine, so true and full of meaning. I guess you see life very much differently than before. Isolation is never a good thing, but on a positive note , you have reached thousands of people and we are there with you. Silently perhaps since we're not close to you or around you, but I want you to know that there are a lot of people wishing you the very best, you will beat this thing Vuhlandes, you will definitely. Thank you for inspiring us since day one! You take good care of yourself, that's your only priority now. Don't loose hope , you will beat this, you are stronger than this. I m wishing you a lovely holiday season but more importantly , I m wishing you a speedy recovery. You are going to beat this I just know it! Sending you lots of strength and courage from Belgium. Take care and remember, you will beat this disease !
Oh man. I’ve been sick five years with a viral infection in part of my brain and I relate to this so much. When everything you enjoy gets taken away, you feel like you’ve lost yourself, you’re just existing. I wish you all the best for your recovery man. Take care :))
I'm so sorry you're going through that 🙏
@ thank you so much mate, I really appreciate that :)) it’s cool though, I’m slowly getting better every day :)
Wishing all the best for your recovery!
@ thank you so much mate :))
@@KitelessThirteenpraying for u brother 🙏🙏
Man, that shot of you in the shower with the pic line covering... When I was going through that shit I hardly ever showered. Not only was I depressed, I was stinky lol.
Keep going bro, these videos are so important
Haha man I get it. It’s so tuff having the will to take care of yourself but I always feel better when I do so I try and keep up with it. How are you now?
You are true artist. Every time your movies have stunning look. Idk how you manage every shot to be cinematic, but keep doing it. I wish you well. We are here for short period of time, but your work will stay!
I don’t know you but wow the amount of strength you have is astronomical❤️
I feel every word of this 100%. This aspect of dealing with an illness is not talked about enough and unfortunately if you’ve been going through it for many years, you begin to be abandoned more and more by those who used to be your support. Like you said life goes on… for them. And some just don’t understand why you’re not better yet.
Thank you for sharing this. I know it speaks for a lot of us.
This is really special man. Thank you
I haven't forgotten about you man! One thing that hasn't change about you is your creativity! Somehow, I don't think that will ever leave, it's woven into the fiber of who you are! Your creativity will always show, even if it's you telling someone else HOW to do/look at things! Praying for you! 🙏🏾
You might not be drawn to the places of creation that you once where, you might miss that seemingly endless flow of passion from a younger you, it might be easy to look at yourself now and think that you don’t hold a candle to your past self but I think we can all agree that through films like this you show that you are still 100% you, you are still an amazing creative, and person and you have so much to offer the world. You are in an era of such wisdom and articulation that transcend the hype of photography and you tube and instagram and transcend your prior self. You have such a strong internal desire to express that even through the treatment, the depression, the lack on energy you still go out with intention and create in your world. I am proud of you for that and I hope one day you can let go of the sense of self that maybe doesn’t serve your happiness anymore and find your way to being proud of the man you are becoming. Thank you for sharing your perspective!
i am so happy every time I see you upload. Just to know you're alright. You got this. We are all cheering for you. I cannot wait to see your "I'm cancer free" upload.
MAN, Take it day by day. The world is always going to be there. Your talent for story telling both visually and audibly is top tier. Salute to you bro! Your in my prayers.
Tears in my eyes. Sending much love to you .
Hey bro we don't know each other but I've been following you for a few years now, watching your camera vlogs and films inspired me to push with my photography. I thought it was so dope you put your love for photography and documenting life with your friends and family out for our entertainment. Thank you!
Aside from that I appreciate you being venerable with you platform about you diagnosis, I've been affected by cancer by way of my late sister. I don't know you but I love you! Please know your story makes others strong...keep fighting and when you can't because your tired just be you. Love from Philadelphia PA
I lost my friend recently to cancer and was there with him daily up till his final day. This video really hits me hard. I miss him, and wish I could have understood him more. You put your mind out there and showed vulnerability, it broke me down again watching, in a good way. You are an incredible human, and a talented person with storytelling. I hope you get thought this fight, not only cancer, but the fight of loosing yourself and one day build yourself to be a better version. You videos help others, I respect the hell out of you. Be good brother.
And your friend was lucky to have you man.
Rooting for you my G praying for your health and peace
You got this . Prayers to you and your loved ones ❤
Thank you for always finding ways to express yourself while also inspiring others.
Love you, man. God is with the brokenhearted. Praying for you.
So much emotion and pain in this video. Your vulnerability is inspiring and appreciated. Keep getting better. Real ones will be here with you 🖤
Stay strong brotha praying for your continued strength and inevitable wellness 🙏🏾💪🏾
Inspirational man. Regardless of your battles you still show up and express yourself. Thank you ❤
@vuhlandes, we will never forget about you! I come back to your channel frequently to see how you’re doing! I pray that you heal and get better!
I respect you man 💯 you are 10x stringer.stay strong my man.
i just discovered one of ur videos today and when i clicked on ur channel, this broke my heart. i’m so sorry you’re going through this. nothing i say will help bc i can’t imagine, but im sending you love 🫶🏾 thank you for being vulnerable enough to share a perspective many of us don’t see
That was beautiful. Thanks for your bravery to share this!
As someone speaking to you from Iran, I want to share a message filled with hope and admiration for your journey. You are an artist, a storyteller through the lens, and your work has already proven that you have a unique ability to see beauty in this world, even in the smallest details. This talent is a reflection of the strength and resilience within you.
Never comment on pages and never really show support like I should but I have to thank you. Watched so many videos and inspired me to buy my first camera. Can only afford the sony zv e10 mark 2 but dream of getting on your level. This video made me stop breathing for a second, It really brings out so much emotion. Truly inspirational.
For the umpteenth time, I'm crying while watching your videos on this topic. It's incredibly powerful. Strong words, deep meanings, and a heavy experience. Every time I feel like giving up, I will remember you and your journey. I truly appreciate it and am grateful to you. I'm praying for you and wishing you all the best. ❤🩹
Lost my aunt to cancer in spring of 2021 and one of my aunts is still going through chemotherapy to this day, Stay strong vuhlandes and keep giving it your all towards your passion bro❤️ youre such an influential and artistic creative being never give that up and I pray you beat this🙏
Man, this was tough to watch....but also GREAT to watch ! How you expressed yourself, still using your passion...really hit ! Have no idea what it feels like to go thru what you are but, I definitely hope you can continue on. Before I go... REALLY loved that shot at 3:48 ! Prayers up homie ! One day at a time..
I don't have cancer, but I'm terminal with a virus that has no vaccine. But it's the same thing. That isolation. Cancelled plans, even online. Feeling guilty for being sick, asking family for help, and still unable to explain how I feel. Why am I not bouncing back or being my old self? I feel it is slipping away.
Through you and this video, my friends might understand how I feel. For that, I thank you, but most importantly, I wish for your happy ending. ❣
@quertie Matthew 4:23 “Jesus went around the whole of Galilee,teaching in their synagogue and preaching the good news of the kingdom healing EVERY disease and EVERY sickness among the people” 🧡🧡
1 Peter 5:7 “cast all your anxiety on him for he cares for you”
Matthew 21:22 “and whatever you ask in prayer,you will receive,if you have faith.”
I’m praying for you
I'ts truly the universe doing it's magic... I have been away from youtube and all of these things and in this exact moment i was studying for some exams i have tomorrow and the day after, and out of nowhere i just thought "how's vuhlandes?" i came here to search if you had posted anything else and sure thing, u posted this yesterday...
thats crazy... Hope for your recovery!
Maybe try talking to someone who has or is going through the same thing as you. Just like you were saying, all that we need is someone to get us and feel what we are feeling. maybe one person can give you more peace than hundreds...
I know that most of our problems can be solved and sometimes it just takes one single person, conversation or experience that changes your mindset or perspective over the problem. hope you feel better and not so much isolated.
loved your video!
Feel better Vuh. We fighting with you 💪🏿
Im a fan . THIS has motivated me to get off my ass. Wish you well in recovery fam . Thank you for being so real .
I cried for you, and for me, because I recognized myself in your story.
I was struck down by a totally disabling mystery illness when I was 24, and gave up my passion (photography) for many years because I couldn’t even hold a camera or edit photos… and I was so bone deep exhausted I almost didn’t even care. A long time later, I am healthier and back into it and that’s how I found you a few years ago.
I am now a different person in many ways but also the same at the core. Many things change when our bodies fail us so utterly… but those things don’t completely, and not forever. Hang in there. You will feel the passion and interest again. It hasn’t abandoned you, it’s just hibernating. And I know you are pushing yourself to keep creating and it may not be fun now but looking back, you will be glad you kept this thing you loved for yourself.
I wish you renewed strength and joy, if not today or tomorrow, then soon.
My father had cancer two times and he fought and won. Keep going and continue to inspire us with your beautiful videos, pictures and above all with your great manner
I don’t usually comment and I have very little experience with cancer. But your ability to push forward and share, in the moment, in real time is so inspiring. I appreciate your rawness and dedication to your craft as well as your narrative. I haven’t been here more than a few years, but this work is what you were unconsciously preparing for. I’m not family or a real world friend, but I support and respect you man; keep pushing!
I'm commenting for the first time today. I've been following you and your work for years. I had my own stint with thyroid cancer 5 years ago. My sister was struggling with terminal breast cancer when you were diagnosed this year.
I wanted to reach out, but even with my close encounters with this disease, fear got the best of me. I became the person that felt foreign and distant. I could never find the words.
My sister passed this month. All I know for sure now is that showing up is all we have and all we can do. Leaning in and engaging with the magnitude of what the disease truly is, is the only way to come out of the fight.
I know what want to say now. I moved to Detroit a few years ago. Artists like you were part of the reason that led me here. You and your work helped me focus why I loved the city. I even saw you skating down the street one random day last year; felt like a good omen. I felt your presence even before I moved out. I see you, and I don't know what it feels like, but I understand. You aren't alone. Much love dude.
Thank you for creating this beautiful film. As someone who's life has been changed by a chronic illness, I can relate to all of this, and sometimes I need to remind myself that it's OK for me to feel these things, as difficult as it is. You creating this film is such a beautiful thing and I'm sure this will touch so many people's hearts and help the world feel a little better. I see you.
I found your channel two years ago when I first got my Sony A7iii - You can beat this shit bro. You are strong brother.
Been watching your stuff passively for years and just wanted to say that youre a fucking champion bro. I hear your message loud and clear. You are loved.
Transforming that pain into Positive Change YOU ARE BLESSED FROM ABOVE 🙏🏼
You popped into my thoughts today, and I saw that I missed your recent upload. Videos like these are why I love this platform. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and stories with us. Know that you have people praying and thinking of you 🌌 Wishing you a speedy recovery
Bro.. you really inspire me. Keep on living and doing the things you love. Your impact and reach may be far wider than you realize. I don't know you, but you've made a HUGE difference in my life and the way I wish to create going forward. Thank you
Much love, Vuh ♡ I’m nearly 14 years out from my last treatment for stage III Hodgkins Lymphoma and even a decade out your words and visuals ring true-isolation is a brutal reality of going through cancer/chemo.
I know all too well the platitudes can ring hollow this deep into the journey, so I’ll keep it short-thanks always for the inspiring visuals. Keep up the great work and, from one Michigander to another, keep kicking ass and documenting your life and journey in the way only you can 🤘🏻
Man. What you said about losing your identity, not recognizing yourself. It felt good to hear someone put it into words. Im not fighting cancer. There was something that happened this year that.. robbed me of the entirety of who I was. I’ve never felt so lost.
Thank you for making this. Thank you for saying what you said. I wish nothing but the best for you.
The power of your words and your pictures will get you (and us) through! Thanks Man!
each scene was shot beautifully, you haven't lost your touch, sending love
I think although at times we may feel like a burden to people, we sometimes don't realize that those very people would be more than happy to be leaned on. Not out of pity, but because it makes them feel needed and trusted. But it does take courage. Wishing you well man ❤
Love this. Captivated by imagery and carried by your commentary.
Very brave man. Wishing you a fast recovery all the way from London England ❤️
Thank you for sharing your story. My younger brother is currently fighting cancer, and it’s been a shock to our whole family. It’s hard trying to figure out the best way to be there for him, sometimes I want to avoid bringing it up and just make things feel as normal as possible for him, and other times I want to let him vent and be supportive. Dealing with the uncertainty of what the future holds and not knowing if he’ll get better has been really tough, and I don’t want to add to his burden. Your video really gave me some perspective, and I appreciate you sharing it. Wishing you the best in your personal journey.
Vuh can’t get more real than this… this was art and emotional. Keep fighting and kicking cancers ass.
Beautiful. Sending love and power to you and anyone in a similar situation. I can't even imagine what you're going through. ❤
My Sister & Mom Are Both Fighting Cancer Right Now,The Fact That You're Fighting & Creating Is Hope Bro, You're Gonna Beat This 💪🏾 Much Love ♥️
You’ve been on my mind ever since you shared your diagnosis. I pray you find comfort amidst the chaos you may be enduring. Thanks for keeping us updated on such a personal and vulnerable journey
This is beautiful and powerful Vuhlandes. Emotions aside; this is your best work in my books. I pray you get through this. Hard frames man, HARD FRAMES.
Lifting you up in prayer my brotha. We all still got purpose till our last breathe. Keep inspiring with your platform. Stay solid. Good bless you. 🙏🏼✨
Always here to check in on you Vuhlandes. An inspiration from the moment I found you, forever.
This was so beautiful and heartbreaking to watch. I just found your channel, and I’m already in love with your work. Thank you for sharing your story and your truth through your pain. I’m praying for your healing, your strength and overcoming. Sorry you are experiencing this. Thank you for sharing this masterpiece with us! 🫶🏾
the roses burning and you saying it just means you're healing made my heart sinkkkk. thank you.
That's the most motivational video I've ever seen. Wish you the best to fully recover and come back even stronger. You are such an inspiration for me. Thank you! 🤍
Your Art has impacted me - just so you know that. As a creative myself, please take it as the highest of compliments. I pray that your spark never leaves this planet.
Beautifully shot and beautifully narrated, thank you for sharing something so personal.❤️🙏🏾
The final shot where you seem to hesitate to walk away was beautiful. You are a force to be reckoned with. Continuing to inspire so many through such a harrowing experience. I am going to pick up my camera for the first time in over a two years today because of you. Thank you.
Your art is still you! I still see the person you express in your recent works. Its just transformed into something more calm, still, and intentional. I noticed it thru slower paces in editing, static shots, slower movements. Its refreshing and still entertaining
This hits me so hard. I’m sitting here watching this in my bed with cancer myself and I feel like I want to give up. This video is deff helping.
Don't feel guilty man for canceling plans, always being tired, sad, whatever. Like you said 'It's okay to feel this way, it doesn't make you ungrateful, and it doesn't mean you're weak, it just means you're human." I may not know what it's like to have cancer, but there are many people who do, and do understand you man. You can get through this, you are strong, look how far you already came. Thank you for sharing, it has given me a lot more understanding, and I know I didn't click on this video for no reason. There will be a cure for cancer, just keep trusting, you will make it through. May God be with you. 🤍
Sending you health and strength man. My grandma passed from cancer years back and though this was heartbreaking to watch it also made me think of how strong she was. How strong you are. Keep fighting brother.
Vuhlandes you were one of my first influences in film photography. The vibes, storytelling, and heart you share with the world through this channel make up a small part of me as this hobby has grown into a serious passion that has changed the course of my life. I really feel for you and hope that even with so much stacked against you that things will improve, little by little. Much love, brother, keep up the fight
Much love and respect on sharing your story with such vulnerability and beautiful creative expression 🙏🏾 I pray for your full recovery and all of the care, support and motivation you need on your healing journey.
One of the best things that you can do in a bad situation is to let it inspire you to make beautiful art. And thats exactly what you have done. Sending love from London.
Thank you for sharing, and keep fighting bro, youre gonna get through this!! I lost my father to cancer 2 weeks ago to the day, so this hits extra hard. F**k cancer!
Thank you for sharing with us, Vuhlandes. Much love to you 🫶🏾
I was 18 the first time I had cancer. I didn't have any support. The last time I had cancer, I had to go to pre op alone and care for myself after surgery. I now have a ton of support. I'm sorry that support for you has dwindled. I actually think of you often. I really feel this. You've inspired me to pursue my photography more over the years even when I often don't have the energy. While my struggles are different and I can't understand completely, I really relate on a deep level. Something that helps me is having support groups of others with my diagnoses and knowing that those in my life choose to be.
thank you for sharing this. most people dont realize how much you lose pieces of yourself when your thought process becomes too polluted, too occupied, too focused on the thing youre fighting.
you want to be youself again but just the process of doing that takes away from you.
i wish you a full recovery and i wish you find the spark again, it is there, inside, its just obstructed but it didnt leave you
I wish you a full recovery, Vuhlandes
keep ya head up bro you still in our prayers🙏
Respect Bro God Bless I’ll keep you in My Prayers ❤️Keep Fighting 💯
You’ve done the world a great service by sharing your art, and sharing it despite the circumstances.
There are people in our world who’ve needed these diary films. People who’ve needed it to feel seen in their experience with the same struggles, and also people who just wanna know what it really means to be a great filmmaker.
Thank you Vuh 🖤
