    I love that you took a negative situation and turned into something extremely positive. More specifically, you shaved all your hair off, and said "wait, I can be Dr.Eggman for my kids!" and that's one of the most badass things I've ever seen. Thank you for being exactly who you are.
    (Also you've helped to inspire me to take on puppet making and other fun things like that, so thank you for that as well

    Keep up the fight Adam, you are doing great. My mom is a cancer survivor and her advice is to always have the best attitude towards it and act like you are not sick at all. I was just a child when that happened, and now at 35 I am so glad she fought like she did.

    Adam I just recently found your channel and love it. I am a special needs teacher and use puppets in my class even though I have been told my students are too old for puppets. I teach middle school students who are mostly non verbal. I want you to know that your puppet videos are amazing and they will inspire future generations to love puppetry. I’m sorry about your cancer but you have been so strong and an inspiration to all of us. I will be praying for you Adam. I’m not sure if you believe in God but please draw near to God and He will draw near to you. I lost both of my parents to cancer and Jesus helped me through those rough days. The YouVersion Bible app is great. Thanks for your time. I am praying for your quick recovery so we can see more incredible puppet videos from you. Thanks

    You are doing fantastic! Your attitude, humor and just overall positive vibes is making a big difference...and not just for you. There are people out there who have been diagnosed with cancer who are scared, depressed, given up... Your video would be a very big inspiration for those who are having a rough go of it. Keep them coming!

    Hi Adam. I have lung cancer and am in my 25th year of living with it. 90% of the challenge is in your head so keep positive and you’ll do great. Thanks for sharing this highly personal experience with the world. There is so much fear associated with a cancer diagnosis and it’s been my aim to try and make the whole thing less scary. I have been very lucky in that my lung cancer isn’t very aggressive but my husband passed from a very aggressive form of kidney cancer so I’ve seen that side of it too. I hope your treatment is 100% successful and you continue to be a great role model to anyone faced with this awful disease. Also thank you for sharing all your puppet building ideas. I hope to make my first Snoof next week! Take care Adam! ❤️❤️

I also wanna thank you for bringing me into the world of puppetry yet again in 2019 when I found your videos. You Helped me discover the world of improv through puppetry as well as learning to make friends which was always hard for me to do through Improv. Nobody deserves cancer not even you. You can kick cancers butt. You got this Adam.

    New to your channel. Oddly enough, i had my own (but different) cancer journey. I had hair loss with the first round of chemo treatment in Feb 2022. As a female, I didn't have the confidence to go into daily living without at least a wig on. I had 99% hair loss and was scared to look at myself in the mirror. I finally said goodbye to the wigs when my daughter had her 1st birthday and now get compliments on my hair that's all grown in. Haven't trimmed it for hair growth since September 2022 and finished 5 weeks of radiation treatments by early Aug with internal overnight radiation in Sept 2022!
    Been NED since Dec 2022! You got this Adam! ❤

    Just as a seasoned teacher nurtures the talents of their students, your journey has been an invaluable source of inspiration.
    Through your own experiences and triumphs over brain cancer, you have become a living example of the power of puppetry and performing arts. Like a master puppeteer, you have skillfully maneuvered adversity, transcending mere entertainment and touching hearts and souls with profound messages of strength and resilience.
    As a fellow teacher, I have been deeply moved by your dedication to nurturing the creative potential in others. Your willingness to share your expertise, despite your challenges, is a testament to your selflessness and the profound impact you have on those fortunate enough to learn from you.
    Your artistry has touched my life and inspired me to become a better teacher and puppeteer. Your channel has taught me that puppetry is not just about manipulating a puppet and creating characters; it is a transformative art that can heal, educate, and bring joy to both performer and the audience.
    Your talent, resilience, and unwavering dedication have shaped the artist and educator I aspire to become. May your journey captivate hearts and inspire countless others, just as they have touched mine.

    Thank you for sharing your store! I too have a brain tumor (grade 2 Astrocytoma IDH1 mutation) and found out by having a grand mal seizure. I love your positivity, and believe that truly helps this fight. I found out about mine in 2011 when I was 22yrs old. I’ve had 3 brain surgeries, chemo, radiation and I’m now on a new type of chemo treatment. However I’m still living life, enjoying it and raising my son ❤
    I hope to hear more! And if you ever have questions or want to talk I’m here and happy to help!

    Hola. Disculpa por escribir en español. Por favor traduce.
    Come guanábana, hierve las hojas del árbol de guanábana: 7 hojas en un litro de agua( hierve primero el agua sola, cuando esté en hervor fuerte ponle las hojas 5 minutos), tomate esa té durante el fía.
    Durante 7-15 días toma jugo verde, en ayunas. Ingredientes:
    Una penca de nopal del tamaño de tu mano.
    7-10 ramas de perejil
    2 rebanadas de piña
    Medio pepino
    Lo metes en la licuadora con agua 250 a 300 mililitros.
    Toma lo sin volar, purificará tu sangre.
    Pronta recuperación.
