They’re testing a new cancer vaccine that killed all tumors in mice. They are doing clinical human trials now Daniel. The trial targets lymphoma but it also can help with other cancers like melanoma: med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/2018/01/cancer-vaccine-eliminates-tumors-in-mice.html Come to the USA and get in the Standford clinical trial.
Anyone who throws abuse your way will have to face the peeweetom squad ! F*CK them ! The struggle and pain you your family are going through can only be understood by people like us who have lost someone close to cancer. We back u fully ! Nothing but love - Mohammad (member of the peeweetom squad)!
downwardfeline couldn't care less how you feel about him. He's going through heartache with his family, and you're throwing crap his way. Says more about your character than his.
I used to be a very serious kid then adult. Only until I had a near-death experience I changed into a silly person. It is so much easier to act silly and laugh instead of cry. Life is not easy.
To you Dan - I would like to say thank you.... Thank you for your honesty, thank you for sharing your life with us...the highs and the devastating lows and thank you for being an inspiration to me and I'm sure many, many others. I would also like to say something to the people who say awful things to you ..... my message to you is - I'm sorry that you are not happy in your life - I assume this because it is often the case with so called "haters"... I hope that whatever is bad in your life, that makes you unhappy, will get better for you - no one should suffer in silence but also take a minute to really think about what people, like Dan, are going through with this awful and evil disease - none of us know what the future holds and maybe one day you or I may need to be shown compassion and wouldn't you want people to be nice to you, to support you? Just please think about that for a couple of minutes.
It is because you are so handsome. Seriously. We who watch you regularly know you are very ill, and are thankful you are sharing your journey with us. Silliness and laughter is a great skill to have when going through horrible times.
what in the fuck is wrong with your life and brain that you enjoy trolling on a dying man's cancer vlog? So weird, I won't go so far as call it evil behavior, but it is definitely an illness, like people who cut themselves to relieve stress..
I heard someone say, you die 2 deaths, one when they bury you and the last one is the day people forget you! My friend you are eternal, through these vlogs which have reached thousands will one day reach millions, your words echoing through time, comforting people helping them and their families!! Long after we're gone!! You are forever my friend!
Thank you for sharing your life with us. I just found out my brother has stage 4 liver cancer, he went to the doctor for stomache pain thinking it was gall stones, and ultimately was told he has 1 year left to live, i am his sister, i am mortified, scared for him and sad. Your story helps me cope with it all. My brother is only 54 years old.. I hate cancer...I cherish my time with him...He jokes and laughs like you do...Thank you Dan...xoxo
The abusive people as you know aren’t worth bothering about. They are the people who’d mug they’re own gran. You are a wonderful person my hero,I’ll love you forever and never forget you even though I don’t know you personally. Dan you are just a wonderful person, I wish I had met you and you were around in the 1960’s. I would have tried hard to win your love. Take care always, stay strong for your family, lots of love as always from Poole
So I wonder what the people who thought he was faking having cancer think now? Hopefully they will think twice before accusing someone of faking before speaking
Dan... Keep doing it. Forget the people who don't get it. So many more of us DO. I think what you are doing is informative and courageous. You have a beautiful heart and wicked sense of humor that comes through even when u are feeling ill. Sending love and light from California ❤🌞 P. S. You have amazing eyes!
Yes! Dan if you are reading, put your focus only on those who love you! Stop giving any headspace to the haters. You see a hate comment, bless them and forget them. It's all about focus. Don't take the hate. Just ignore and remember 99,9% of us really care about you.
Dan, this year has been crazy for me as well. My dad tried to commit suicide due to immutable pain and I found him and saved his life. I realized how much life meant and you inspire me to make the most of it. I don’t know what is on the other side, if there’s anything at all, but the 3 greatest and worst words you ever hear are “you’re gonna die” which made me realize I have to live every second of my life how I want. You are so inspirational and I admire to be as positive as you, even in the darkest of times.
this i think Dan is one of your best vids in as much as you showed us your vulnerability and how you truly feel the coping joking mask off which takes courage to do xx
You’re a lovely man Dan, know that an awful lot of people who don’t even know you care about you and desperately want you to beat this. Keep being strong. Hugs from me.
Missing you still You are such a good looking Guy And a great guy for helping other people mum and dad should be so proud miss you still xxxxxxx RIP Dan
As always, I wish you the best. I appreciate the updates, even when you don’t feel like doing them. Thank you for sharing your life with us, struggles and all. Love you, Dan. ❤️
You have such a light hearted way about you..very open and eloquent. You are so brave to put all this out for us to view. Know this: you are inspiration for many! Love, hugs, and prayers.
Thank you for being so honest and transparent. I know I’m going to need a box of tissue when I watch your parents videos. I totally relate to the “You don’t look sick” scenario. I don’t have cancer but I do have an autoimmune disease. Like you, I use humor to get me and others through tough times. I hope you feel how much we all care about you? I love when your Mom is in a video. She’s great! 🇺🇸🐊🌴☀️🌊
Rest In Peace Dan, your humility, courage and strength is truly awe inspiring. I take great strength from you and your video's. You show us how to live with it. Nothing but love and respect for you and your memory my friend.
We are still watching Dan even though your no longer with us. Your story is amazing along with your courage. Im glad your legacy lives on for others. Thankyou
Dan, I haven’t commented in some time. Your fellow Brit survivor relocated across the pond. I haven’t stopped watching. You and your family are always in me thoughts. The reason I haven’t commented as of late is probably a very rubbish excuse, but with your cancer getting horribly worse, Emily Hayward has now started declining and the passing of Sofia - I’m having survivors guilt. And survivors guilt is a real thing. But please know you have my support and my most positive vibes coming your way, everyday. Hang in there mate. Lots of love.
Jamie Roberts that was such a lovely message Jamie very kind I’m so glad your better. It’s traumatic watching Dan and Em isn’t it? You just pray for miracles you take care and ditch that guilt no need for it your message showed what a kind heart you have xxx
Diana Murray thank you kindly! It’s heart-wrenching to see them. I will watch and support them forever, but sometimes the bloody guilt gets a bit much. So I don’t always comment. Love them to bits though. And thank you for your kind words. That means a lot :)
You let us in every day to your world, Dan. It's a tough road. You're one of the lucky few believe it or not that can see the funny in most things. Imagine what a life you would have if it were the opposite. I know that a bunch of people look up to you for the way you are handling this situation. Make the most of every day and never take for granted the days of our lives. Make the best of every one because we never know how many of them any of us has. Take care buddy. Forever a fan.
Dan, i've been watching for a while now and have never had any words until i was diagnosed with malignant melanoma. I literally fell to the floor and didn't know what to do with myself. Watching your videos has helped me so much. Your need to fight, your wonderful sense of humour have inspired me and been a comfort to me. You're awesome. Lots of love ❤
My pops passed away from cancer about 8 years ago now. I keep coming back to this channel to really understand what he went through as he tried to shield me from his pain.
Sitting in hospital myself right now, crying as I watch ur heartwrenching video. I feel ur pain my friend. And I am so so so very sorry for what ur going through. I can't imagine anyone abusing you; people are inherently cynical and cruel. Ignore the ignorants. You've touched my heart. Be well dear Dan. Much love xoxo ❤️
Diana Murray thank you...I had Hodgkin's Lymphoma diagnosed in 2016 but had my miracle and am fine now. Was in hospital for unrelated injury. Thank you for ur kindness xo
It will help people to hear from your family. You are right it is not easy for you or your family. You have been kind and loving enough to let us into your life. Those stories will help not only those going though it but helpful to those who feel helpless on sidelines. Thank you for being such a beautiful person and your channel grows because people care, even if it's just a virtual shoulder, we are here and we are listening. May love embrace you today.
Hey Dan, I’ve watched about 8 videos from your channel tonight and your story and journey has stopped my night. I lost my mother quite recently so a lot of what you illustrate resonates with me. I respect your strength and determination.
I followed his journey and I too had a sarcoma at the time but luckily it did not came back,cross fingers. I admired him his courage his love for his family..R.I.P my friend.😢😢
Dan, I have grown to care so much for you and your family by watching your journey. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your life. I am a three-time cancer survivor, the first at age 16 the 2nd at 28th and the 3rd at age 40 a few months after losing my father. the 3rd is a cancer that is chronic and I will live with until I get sick enough for a stem cell transplant. I am not nearly is graceful at handling my situation, and the low days. I keep praying for some miracle for you because you are a beautiful spirit and such a strong soul. We need you in this world. I hope you know that you are loved and so highly regarded by so many. Those who heap abuse on you are not good people and I hope, to the best of your ability, you allow their sh**ty behavior to roll off your back. I look forward to seeing your beautiful face each time you post and I know I'm not the only one. Please take very good care of yourself and try not to give up. XOXO
I showed up late to your videos unfortunately your truly an inspiration and a fighter until the very end u should be proud buddy rest easy now really wish it was a different outcome for you the world had lost a good soul r.i.p dan Thomas
Oh Dan, you hit the nail on the head. Cancer shows it painful deterioration as unique to the individual fighting to survive from this disease. I do not need to see you vomiting your guts out to believe you're not well. I think all of us can agree that seeing you in agony would be heartbreaking because we can't help. We can only comfort you in words of encouragement, compassion, and love through messages. I'm with you all the way in this. Bad days, good days. You are loved and we are here for your family also. Sending you love. ❤❤❤🌠
We treasure every video you share. I hope you understand how much we are all behind you. Total strangers from all over the world have you in their thoughts and prayers!!!
Still miss you, you incredible man. We are all the better for having seen your journey, and how we wish you could have been cured. You are irreplaceable.
I respect your documentation of you journey. I believe in you. I believe you are incredibly strong and brave, even though your foundation has been shaken, you continue on. You truly a modern day warrior fighting something that every human fears. You are a story that needs to be told. Thank you.
Never met this man. I watched his vids in the early days but for inspiration I find myself drawn towards Dan, I was inspired by his energy for life, his humour, his tenacity, Dan is an inspiration to all, his life was special, to his family and those around him. Dan's parents must be so proud, he achieved and gave so much back to others, that's a diamond, a saint! x
One day an abuser will face a situation in their life, or the life of someone close to them, and remember things they said to people in similar situations years before and it will be too late, too late to say sorry, to late to do anything about it... and that will be their shame.
I am not asking people to 'suck up to' or 'pretend to like' someone who is dying. I am saying that there is no need to be offensive to, or abuse someone, in that situation to try to make their life worse than it already is. I hope you get a bit more compassion than you are prepared to offer others when you are dying.
@downwardfeline you are rude and you should learn respect and grow up.. Dan face inspiration to me.. I too am facing loosing someone in the family to brain cancer.. he bothered to private message me to get me through a lot I could not deal with.. he is not looking for your sympathy nor wanting you to suck up to him.. he posts the vids in hope it helps others who face the same and to show them to be strong and never give up.. Dan has sadly passed away.. he fought to the very end in pain and still he was there for others.. your parents clearly failed you since they forgot to teach you respect manners and compassion for others..Dan is resting in peace now and I bet if you went through it you would be doing nothing but moaning and wanting pity.. at least he fought on for as long as he could and made sure to tell others to never give up fighting... shame on you.. your a disgrace
Very seldom does a recommended UA-cam video lead me to something meaningful but a couple of months ago I found you, the more updates I watch the more I feel like I hope there is something that has to work, you, your family, your attitude even when you are ill inspires so many people. Sending strength and love as always man ❤️
Dan, I experience the you don't look sick, invisible illness, it hurts but remember they are idiots and have no clue.....There are thousands of us who know better and know your fighting for your life....Praying for you and your Mum and Dad and family.., love and hugs....Keep fighting, we are here for you always ...Deb
I pray God will Bless you with a pain free life again.You have so much to offer the world and we need you Dan!!!You are such a Huge Inspiration to Many! Thank you Sweet One for all you do for us with such a determined heart to share all of this journey.I wish we all could take a little of your suffering on our backs giving you the life you once enjoyed.Take Good Care My Friend and sending you love and hugs.
I've subscribed to your parents channel, and will be watching out for their story.. love you Dan and love that you are the silly person you are, making fun of a bad situation, its how we deal with it in our family as well.. thank you ♥
Dan, I’ve been sick for a long time, suffering and sometimes not, and I have felt very isolated in my experience. Having you share your journey, heart wrenching at times when you are not well, has been validating to me personally and I thank you truly for that. Your efforts to document your reality are serving good purpose in the world.
What a great idea it really is, good for your lovely mum and dad as well something to focus on, get their own feelings out and help others. You are all genuine, lovely people, thank you for sharing your journey xxx
It's the Internet, and every idiot feels they're entitled to have their say. Don't worry about the naysayers and trolls, they're simply not important. Just as you'll likely walk passed half a dozen morons when walking down the street, you'll also walk by some good people too. I've been around depression for a long time, and people with depression are the same as yourself in a way. When you talk with someone who is struggling, they'll convince you they're okay, tell you all the right things. It's a natural reflex, no-one wants to make someone else feel bad. In reality, there can be huge struggles going on. It's not a matter of being dishonest, it's just what people do to get through difficult days. FIght the good fight on your own terms!
Your honesty will help others. Very well done - even people with chronic illness (myself) are not believed. I had cancer twice last year and three times in total. I can imagine how difficult this is for you and your family. Sending love and compassion.
I am looking forward to hearing your families thoughts. I think it will help a lot of people. Most of my cancer experience comes from family having it when I was a child. My dad passed from cancer when I was 12. I am interested in the perspective from an adult. Xoxo
Dan, your strength and courage to share your experience through your eyes and your family is amazing and selfless. You are bringing the reality of the effects of cancer to the world and a stronger meaning of who and what is important in your life. Thank you for being so candid about your cancer and especially who you are. I feel indebted to be able to watch on. xo
Dan....You are the definition of a Hero.....a young man facing a terrible disease with grace and humor.....You are truly priceless in the best way.....all Human beings should strive to be the same....Sadly not all can reach that goal....No one should ever show hate to a dear soul that has the courage to show us his life and let us in.....to help us learn how we all need to act and be in the face of mortality.....I hope and pray that you live a long life filled with love and joy.....but know now that you have tremendous love surrounding you.....Bless you Dan....Sara
You’re a true warrior, most people in your situation would have given up on everything by now. You can be proud of your attitude, think about the things you can change not your circumstances.
Bless you! I'm so sorry you get abuse on your channel. That's awful. Your so kind, funny and such a strong man. Your doing the whole world a massive thing by sharing your story! Let your parents share all they want!! We will be here to listen and support! 💕
Dan, because of your videos I had a strange sore on my ear checked out and turned out to be melanoma. Doc said could have easily spread had I held off on checkup. So in a way you saved my life. Thank you bro,and if anybody out there has any doubts about unusual symptoms do not delay!! Get it checked out like yesterday. If you can get these things checked out early there’s a good chance you’ll be cured.
I’ve had a high risk encounter with skin cancer. I had an obvious tumor on my left side by my elbow since I was born. It’s changed colors from dark red to skin color to brown. They did biopsies and said it wasn’t much more than a birth mark but my sophomore year it went bad, it became black and it was bleeding and hurting to the touch. I went to the doctor and they immediately set me up with a dermatologist who removed it and any surrounding area that was effected. It grew into a malignant tumor with a blood flow. I was told that it could have spread to other parts of my body and I could have mire skin tumors appear. I did regular body checks weekly for anything new and I had scans done to make sure there wasn’t anything internal that it spread to. I did that for 3 years and with nothing appearing so they told me I should be good but to always keep an eye out. They told me that I have a high risk of having severe melanoma later in life. It’s terrifying what mental state that puts you in, fear and anxiety were a big part of my life for those 3 years. I know he isn’t here to read this but I wanted to share my experience. Rest easy, you’re in our thoughts
Dan, the name of your parents' channel is perfect. Thank you, and please thank them. All too often, the caregivers are forgotten in the face of cancer. That your parents are willing to share their experience will help so many people.
Dear, dear Dan, Thank you for sharing such a difficult journey with all of us! We as followers have grown, not like the cancer in a dark way, we have grown in Love and Prayers for you! You have brought people together for the good. There are always gonna be haters. Karma will get those folks. Just know there are so many more people all over the world that are pulling for you and pray for the cancer to go! You are a champion! We all Care! Colorado,U.S.A. 🇺🇸
I wish i could just hold you. I have a story myself, invisible illness is harder when there are ignorance in the world. Nobody knows really. I wish i could just hug you and hold you. Know what i mean?
annette l.t. aka:the lunchlady invisible illnesses are the worst. Like you I also suffer from one and it drives me crazy when people say I’m not ill just because I don’t look it.
annette l.t. aka:the lunchlady Same here. On days I have to leave the house it’s worse because I fuss with my hair & do a little makeup. People can be rude, like “how dare you take a handicap spot!” Even the med assistants fall in that trap “you’re looking so much better!”....then they do vitals & review med list. It’s better to not be acknowledged some days
Dan You have showed me what a real Hero and fighter really are. You have showed so many love, and what an Inspiration towards many of us. Dan you have Showed that you can still be strong, in the worst of all storms. We will alway's you !
Dan, i just want you to know that you’ve been such an inspiration to me through your videos, because YOU ARE SUCH A FIGHTER & a CHAMP! 💜 you are so strong for sharing your journey and experience with the world, God bless you always! 🌸
Dan, you have chosen to document the hardest time in your life. You have reached the hearts of many. Your courage and strength has spread to the ends of the earth and back. Not only are you a brilliant creator, but you are the one thing that keeps many facing the same devistation, PEACE.
You are a brave strong young man and I appreciate all that your doing. I went threw this with my brother and it is very hard on the family. Keeping a sense of humor is so important. Keep doing what your doing Dan!! Your the best!! Stay strong!
I know about 'you don't look sick' i know and that makes me sad! 😔 This people are ... Thanks a lot for this video. Thanks! ❤❤❤🤗🤗🤗 Many love and hugs for you, you are strong and a great man!
I love looking back at Dan's videos. Anyone else visiting? RIP Dan 💙
Me too

Shame on anyone who gave Dan abuse, this is the most honest youtuber ever. R.I.P DAN Peeweetoms, your a legend.
Sometimes we abuse the ones we love because that’s all we know :)
I could never imagine what you’re going through.
All the best!
Gonzo W great
Gonzo W - I’ve also heard that DMT can help.

Anyone who throws abuse your way will have to face the peeweetom squad ! F*CK them !
The struggle and pain you your family are going through can only be understood by people like us who have lost someone close to cancer. We back u fully !
Nothing but love

Cubbman79 Cubster well said mate
downwardfeline I have no response to that at all
downwardfeline couldn't care less how you feel about him. He's going through heartache with his family, and you're throwing crap his way. Says more about your character than his.
downwardfeline witty. couldn't care less if u care about him or not. Don't like him ? Don't watch.
downwardfeline for someone who doesn't watch his videos you sure have alot to say.
I used to be a very serious kid then adult. Only until I had a near-death experience I changed into a silly person. It is so much easier to act silly and laugh instead of cry. Life is not easy.
To you Dan - I would like to say thank you.... Thank you for your honesty, thank you for sharing your life with us...the highs and the devastating lows and thank you for being an inspiration to me and I'm sure many, many others. I would also like to say something to the people who say awful things to you ..... my message to you is - I'm sorry that you are not happy in your life - I assume this because it is often the case with so called "haters"... I hope that whatever is bad in your life, that makes you unhappy, will get better for you - no one should suffer in silence but also take a minute to really think about what people, like Dan, are going through with this awful and evil disease - none of us know what the future holds and maybe one day you or I may need to be shown compassion and wouldn't you want people to be nice to you, to support you? Just please think about that for a couple of minutes.
Karin Froch I totally agree 👍💖
Beautifully said❤️
Agree
Karin Froch: WELL SAID AND THANK YOU!!
Perfectly said Karin x
It grew (your followers) because your genuine, kind, funny as hell and a warrior! We are in awe of you man!!! Xxx
I already miss you Daniel. You are a hero and an amazing voice of strength.
It is because you are so handsome. Seriously. We who watch you regularly know you are very ill, and are thankful you are sharing your journey with us. Silliness and laughter is a great skill to have when going through horrible times.
Wendy Sherbert.. Yes, he has beautiful eyes
what in the fuck is wrong with your life and brain that you enjoy trolling on a dying man's cancer vlog? So weird, I won't go so far as call it evil behavior, but it is definitely an illness, like people who cut themselves to relieve stress..
Wendy Sherbert but what if he was ugly I bet you wouldn’t give a damn
I heard someone say, you die 2 deaths, one when they bury you and the last one is the day people forget you! My friend you are eternal, through these vlogs which have reached thousands will one day reach millions, your words echoing through time, comforting people helping them and their families!! Long after we're gone!! You are forever my friend!

Very well said.
I can't even imagine how sad someone's life has to be to harass someone who is sick on line.
Chris Trinder they are weak people Dan is strong there soo sick they pick on anyone who is vanurable to make themselves feel better very sad
Chris Trinder you hit That right on. That’s probably the truth
Chris Trinder I hope this made Dan smile as your 100% right!!! What a awesome 😎 guy eh? X
I love this comment 💜
So I wonder what the people who thought he was faking having cancer think now? Hopefully they will think twice before accusing someone of faking before speaking

Diana Murray thank you kindly! It’s heart-wrenching to see them. I will watch and support them forever, but sometimes the bloody guilt gets a bit much. So I don’t always comment. Love them to bits though. And thank you for your kind words. That means a lot :)
Jamie Roberts what kind of cancer did you have
You let us in every day to your world, Dan. It's a tough road. You're one of the lucky few believe it or not that can see the funny in most things. Imagine what a life you would have if it were the opposite. I know that a bunch of people look up to you for the way you are handling this situation. Make the most of every day and never take for granted the days of our lives. Make the best of every one because we never know how many of them any of us has. Take care buddy. Forever a fan.
Dan, i've been watching for a while now and have never had any words until i was diagnosed with malignant melanoma. I literally fell to the floor and didn't know what to do with myself. Watching your videos has helped me so much. Your need to fight, your wonderful sense of humour have inspired me and been a comfort to me. You're awesome. Lots of love ❤
Karla Bennett stay strong Karla. Rooting for you too now xxx
Diana Murray ❤
I watch at least one of your videos a day to remind myself that I need to appreciate the air I breathe. Heartbroken for your family.
God Bless You Daniel. You made an extraordinary impact on the lives of others. Rest In Peace Always.
My pops passed away from cancer about 8 years ago now. I keep coming back to this channel to really understand what he went through as he tried to shield me from his pain.
Sitting in hospital myself right now, crying as I watch ur heartwrenching video. I feel ur pain my friend. And I am so so so very sorry for what ur going through. I can't imagine anyone abusing you; people are inherently cynical and cruel. Ignore the ignorants. You've touched my heart. Be well dear Dan. Much love xoxo ❤️
Donna Mayer get well soon Donna xxx
Diana Murray thank you...I had Hodgkin's Lymphoma diagnosed in 2016 but had my miracle and am fine now. Was in hospital for unrelated injury. Thank you for ur kindness xo
Donna Mayer oh that’s fantastic news!!! So very glad for you xxxxx
Diana Murray ❤️
It will help people to hear from your family. You are right it is not easy for you or your family. You have been kind and loving enough to let us into your life. Those stories will help not only those going though it but helpful to those who feel helpless on sidelines. Thank you for being such a beautiful person and your channel grows because people care, even if it's just a virtual shoulder, we are here and we are listening. May love embrace you today.
We’re with you, all the way.
You have personally given me a new perspective on life. You cross my mind all the time and I will never forget you.
Hey Dan,
I’ve watched about 8 videos from your channel tonight and your story and journey has stopped my night.
I lost my mother quite recently so a lot of what you illustrate resonates with me.
I respect your strength and determination.
With you every step of the way my friend
Oh Dan. You are struggling with this I feel your pain I really do stay strong we are all behind you on this xxx
Very sad ,I came across him, but he had already died, have watched them all. He was so brave & suffered so much. RIP Dan xxx
I followed his journey and I too had a sarcoma at the time but luckily it did not came back,cross fingers. I admired him his courage his love for his family..R.I.P my friend.😢😢
Dan, I have grown to care so much for you and your family by watching your journey. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your life. I am a three-time cancer survivor, the first at age 16 the 2nd at 28th and the 3rd at age 40 a few months after losing my father. the 3rd is a cancer that is chronic and I will live with until I get sick enough for a stem cell transplant. I am not nearly is graceful at handling my situation, and the low days. I keep praying for some miracle for you because you are a beautiful spirit and such a strong soul. We need you in this world. I hope you know that you are loved and so highly regarded by so many. Those who heap abuse on you are not good people and I hope, to the best of your ability, you allow their sh**ty behavior to roll off your back. I look forward to seeing your beautiful face each time you post and I know I'm not the only one. Please take very good care of yourself and try not to give up. XOXO
I showed up late to your videos unfortunately your truly an inspiration and a fighter until the very end u should be proud buddy rest easy now really wish it was a different outcome for you the world had lost a good soul r.i.p dan Thomas
Oh Dan, you hit the nail on the head. Cancer shows it painful deterioration as unique to the individual fighting to survive from this disease. I do not need to see you vomiting your guts out to believe you're not well. I think all of us can agree that seeing you in agony would be heartbreaking because we can't help. We can only comfort you in words of encouragement, compassion, and love through messages. I'm with you all the way in this. Bad days, good days. You are loved and we are here for your family also. Sending you love. ❤❤❤🌠
Stay fearless dan we are all rooting for you God bless much love to you and your family
We treasure every video you share. I hope you understand how much we are all behind you. Total strangers from all over the world have you in their thoughts and prayers!!!
Still miss you, you incredible man. We are all the better for having seen your journey, and how we wish you could have been cured. You are irreplaceable.
I respect your documentation of you journey. I believe in you. I believe you are incredibly strong and brave, even though your foundation has been shaken, you continue on. You truly a modern day warrior fighting something that every human fears. You are a story that needs to be told. Thank you.
I feel so honoured to have Dan. One in a Million, a inspiration to thousands of people all over the world. I just loved him Pamela Meier
Never met this man. I watched his vids in the early days but for inspiration I find myself drawn towards Dan, I was inspired by his energy for life, his humour, his tenacity, Dan is an inspiration to all, his life was special, to his family and those around him. Dan's parents must be so proud, he achieved and gave so much back to others, that's a diamond, a saint! x
Mighty warrior, handsome man, beautiful soul! 😢, hugs to his wife and family. ❤
❤️ you are still fighting darling xx a strong man
Much..of a connection to and with you..you are..a wonderful strong man..thank you for all you have and are Dan!
One day an abuser will face a situation in their life, or the life of someone close to them, and remember things they said to people in similar situations years before and it will be too late, too late to say sorry, to late to do anything about it... and that will be their shame.
I am not asking people to 'suck up to' or 'pretend to like' someone who is dying. I am saying that there is no need to be offensive to, or abuse someone, in that situation to try to make their life worse than it already is. I hope you get a bit more compassion than you are prepared to offer others when you are dying.
Abusive sociopaths and psychopaths are virtually unable to experience shame...
@downwardfeline you are rude and you should learn respect and grow up.. Dan face inspiration to me.. I too am facing loosing someone in the family to brain cancer.. he bothered to private message me to get me through a lot I could not deal with.. he is not looking for your sympathy nor wanting you to suck up to him.. he posts the vids in hope it helps others who face the same and to show them to be strong and never give up.. Dan has sadly passed away.. he fought to the very end in pain and still he was there for others.. your parents clearly failed you since they forgot to teach you respect manners and compassion for others..Dan is resting in peace now and I bet if you went through it you would be doing nothing but moaning and wanting pity.. at least he fought on for as long as he could and made sure to tell others to never give up fighting... shame on you.. your a disgrace
Very seldom does a recommended UA-cam video lead me to something meaningful but a couple of months ago I found you, the more updates I watch the more I feel like I hope there is something that has to work, you, your family, your attitude even when you are ill inspires so many people. Sending strength and love as always man ❤️
Dan, I experience the you don't look sick, invisible illness, it hurts but remember they are idiots and have no clue.....There are thousands of us who know better and know your fighting for your life....Praying for you and your Mum and Dad and family.., love and hugs....Keep fighting, we are here for you always ...Deb
Beautiful videos. Thank you, Dan. RIP
i love you all very much you are the strongest person i know
I pray God will Bless you with a pain free life again.You have so much to offer the world and we need you Dan!!!You are such a Huge Inspiration to Many! Thank you Sweet One for all you do for us with such a determined heart to share all of this journey.I wish we all could take a little of your suffering on our backs giving you the life you once enjoyed.Take Good Care My Friend and sending you love and hugs.
I've subscribed to your parents channel, and will be watching out for their story.. love you Dan and love that you are the silly person you are, making fun of a bad situation, its how we deal with it in our family as well.. thank you ♥
January 2023 - 💔 such a strong beautiful man 💙 xx
Praying for you man!
Yeah, your *prayers* really helped 😊😊😊😊
Dan, I’ve been sick for a long time, suffering and sometimes not, and I have felt very isolated in my experience. Having you share your journey, heart wrenching at times when you are not well, has been validating to me personally and I thank you truly for that. Your efforts to document your reality are serving good purpose in the world.
Keep fighting never ever give up, all 91 thousand of us are here for you dans army xx
This was one brave man. God bless.
Bless you 💜 Big hugs x
What a great idea it really is, good for your lovely mum and dad as well something to focus on, get their own feelings out and help others. You are all genuine, lovely people, thank you for sharing your journey xxx
It's the Internet, and every idiot feels they're entitled to have their say. Don't worry about the naysayers and trolls, they're simply not important. Just as you'll likely walk passed half a dozen morons when walking down the street, you'll also walk by some good people too.
I've been around depression for a long time, and people with depression are the same as yourself in a way. When you talk with someone who is struggling, they'll convince you they're okay, tell you all the right things. It's a natural reflex, no-one wants to make someone else feel bad. In reality, there can be huge struggles going on. It's not a matter of being dishonest, it's just what people do to get through difficult days.
FIght the good fight on your own terms!
I can't believe that anyone would send you hate messages you were such a hero RIp Dan
Your honesty will help others. Very well done - even people with chronic illness (myself) are not believed. I had cancer twice last year and three times in total. I can imagine how difficult this is for you and your family. Sending love and compassion.
I am looking forward to hearing your families thoughts. I think it will help a lot of people. Most of my cancer experience comes from family having it when I was a child. My dad passed from cancer when I was 12. I am interested in the perspective from an adult. Xoxo
Dan, your strength and courage to share your experience through your eyes and your family is amazing and selfless. You are bringing the reality of the effects of cancer to the world and a stronger meaning of who and what is important in your life. Thank you for being so candid about your cancer and especially who you are. I feel indebted to be able to watch on. xo
Dan you are loved by so many I'm sending prayers of healing ❤💛
Dan, thankyou for let us be part of this journey with you. You are such an inspiration and a fighter...keep fighting everyday!!xx
Dan....You are the definition of a Hero.....a young man facing a terrible disease with grace and humor.....You are truly priceless in the best way.....all Human beings should strive to be the same....Sadly not all can reach that goal....No one should ever show hate to a dear soul that has the courage to show us his life and let us in.....to help us learn how we all need to act and be in the face of mortality.....I hope and pray that you live a long life filled with love and joy.....but know now that you have tremendous love surrounding you.....Bless you Dan....Sara
You’re a true warrior, most people in your situation would have given up on everything by now. You can be proud of your attitude, think about the things you can change not your circumstances.
Fight, Dan. I know you are already but keep on fighting.
I am inspired by each and every one of your videos! Prayers being sent your way from Dallas Texas!
Warrior!! You rock! 💪💪💪
Brave handsome man... God bless...x
Keep fighting ❤️
Bless you! I'm so sorry you get abuse on your channel. That's awful. Your so kind, funny and such a strong man. Your doing the whole world a massive thing by sharing your story! Let your parents share all they want!! We will be here to listen and support! 💕
Keep fighting, just keep telling yourself that nothing can get in your way, be the strongest you can be. That’s the real cure 💪🏼💪🏼
Dan, because of your videos I had a strange sore on my ear checked out and turned out to be melanoma. Doc said could have easily spread had I held off on checkup. So in a way you saved my life. Thank you bro,and if anybody out there has any doubts about unusual symptoms do not delay!! Get it checked out like yesterday. If you can get these things checked out early there’s a good chance you’ll be cured.
Thank you ..for all you are putting into getting this out there xxxx bless
I’ve had a high risk encounter with skin cancer. I had an obvious tumor on my left side by my elbow since I was born. It’s changed colors from dark red to skin color to brown. They did biopsies and said it wasn’t much more than a birth mark but my sophomore year it went bad, it became black and it was bleeding and hurting to the touch. I went to the doctor and they immediately set me up with a dermatologist who removed it and any surrounding area that was effected. It grew into a malignant tumor with a blood flow. I was told that it could have spread to other parts of my body and I could have mire skin tumors appear. I did regular body checks weekly for anything new and I had scans done to make sure there wasn’t anything internal that it spread to. I did that for 3 years and with nothing appearing so they told me I should be good but to always keep an eye out. They told me that I have a high risk of having severe melanoma later in life. It’s terrifying what mental state that puts you in, fear and anxiety were a big part of my life for those 3 years. I know he isn’t here to read this but I wanted to share my experience. Rest easy, you’re in our thoughts
Your stronger then any person I know. Your smashing out content even when your so ill. Really proud of you brother.
Dan, the name of your parents' channel is perfect. Thank you, and please thank them. All too often, the caregivers are forgotten in the face of cancer. That your parents are willing to share their experience will help so many people.
Stay strong Dan! We love you man!
Dear, dear Dan,
Thank you for sharing such a difficult journey with all of us! We as followers have grown, not like the cancer in a dark way, we have grown in Love and Prayers for you! You have brought people together for the good. There are always gonna be haters. Karma will get those folks. Just know there are so many more people all over the world that are pulling for you and pray for the cancer to go! You are a champion! We all Care! Colorado,U.S.A. 🇺🇸
I wish i could just hold you. I have a story myself, invisible illness is harder when there are ignorance in the world. Nobody knows really. I wish i could just hug you and hold you. Know what i mean?
annette l.t. aka:the lunchlady invisible illnesses are the worst. Like you I also suffer from one and it drives me crazy when people say I’m not ill just because I don’t look it.
Michael Olenyn i know exactly what you mean. ❤❤❤
annette l.t. aka:the lunchlady Same here. On days I have to leave the house it’s worse because I fuss with my hair & do a little makeup. People can be rude, like “how dare you take a handicap spot!” Even the med assistants fall in that trap “you’re looking so much better!”....then they do vitals & review med list. It’s better to not be acknowledged some days
I know how all of you feel.
Michael Olenyn (hugs)
Dan You have showed me what a real Hero and fighter really are. You have showed so many love, and what an Inspiration towards many of us. Dan you have Showed that you can still be strong, in the worst of all storms. We will alway's you !
Stay strong Dan. Sending gentle hugs all the way from Kent UK x ❤
You're probably not far from him. I'm from Essex UK, so nor am I.
Dan, i just want you to know that you’ve been such an inspiration to me through your videos, because YOU ARE SUCH A FIGHTER & a CHAMP! 💜 you are so strong for sharing your journey and experience with the world, God bless you always! 🌸
Dan, you have chosen to document the hardest time in your life. You have reached the hearts of many. Your courage and strength has spread to the ends of the earth and back. Not only are you a brilliant creator, but you are the one thing that keeps many facing the same devistation, PEACE.
You are a brave strong young man and I appreciate all that your doing. I went threw this with my brother and it is very hard on the family. Keeping a sense of humor is so important. Keep doing what your doing Dan!! Your the best!! Stay strong!
How could we ever forget those beautiful eyes missing you Dan
I know about 'you don't look sick' i know and that makes me sad! 😔 This people are ... Thanks a lot for this video. Thanks! ❤❤❤🤗🤗🤗 Many love and hugs for you, you are strong and a great man!
