This ad needs to win an award.
god bless you and your late father. I lost my dad last june. Macmillan nurses where amazing taking a lot of the stress away from our family at this sad time' we will always be grateful to Macmillan nurses for their help.
I start to cry every time I watch this ad..It's so moving
The Macmillan nurses were wonderful helping both my mum and the family when she had cancer. Sadly she died on 16th December but Macmillan were there for us, supporting us. thank you.
powerful advert makes me cry everytime when I see the look on their faces as they fall, and so beautiful when someone is there to catch them
This advert is unbelievably powerful, can't wait to raise money doing the marathon for this fantastic charity
I like the actress playing the nurse at 1.25 . Such a caring individual and yet extremely strong and supportive at the same time. In a few seconds she extolls all the greatest virtues of nursing and I applaud this fine lady for that.
this ad is exactly how I am feeling 8wks after being diagnosed - thank you Macmillan for your support
My dear dad died of lung cancer ..... 10years ago this June ..... the support of the nurses sitting with him during the night in his own home to allow my sister and mum some rest will never be forgotten
I cried when I saw this ad it really hits the spot . My mum was diagoned with Breast cancer last year and 2 weeks ago my husband was told he has Skin Cancer . We have been put in touch with a lovely Macmillan nurse called Veronica and we are hopefull he will be ok x
Still the most powerfull cancer advert ive seen! The look on there faces when it hits home and the music together chokes me up!
the Macmillan nurse was absolute fantastic looking out for my mother in law Joan, when she was diagnosed with cancer in late October 2012. And she stayed with Joan and the family throughout the following 3 months still Joan's death. Macmillan do a great job, and this ad is incredibly powerful. Hope you get a lot more support and cash as a result
Macmillan are amazing and were a and still are a great support from the moment my daughter was diagnosed with cancer when she was 3 months old. 4 years later and still fighting they continue to be a HUGE support for us xx
Everyone should feel like that, but so few of us do. I have lived with Metastatic Breast Cancer for over 5 years and I feel so alone most of the time.
Thank you, I'm glad our campaign moved you.
As the daughter of a cancer sufferer, this really hits home, fabulous ad and so so true
my lovely sis passed away (13/03/2012) !!!! do anything 2 bring her back!!!WISH I COULD WIN LOTTERY would donate everything to this charityx
You are so right James. With a lady like that supporting you life would be that much easier.
my dad died of cancer at the age of 49, it was cancer of the bowl, without mac millian nurses and the hospice in chester my dads final days would have been awful, as it is they made him feel whole they was there for him night and day, they do a great job, if every one donated just £2.00 a month they would be able to help more people, 1 in 3 of us will get cancer, 1 in 3, so may be your donation one day will also help them to help and support you or your family member.
another brilliant advert made me shiver from head to toe .
very moving - and is so true to life for many people. I always go with my husband when he sees the specialists, so that I can be sure I hear what is said, as he often does not hold the information. For those without family or friends' support thank goodness for Macmillan staff. For us carers thank God for Macmillan.
I felt just like that when I received my diagnosis, but I was fortunate that I had my partner to explain what the consultant had said. Ever since he's been my rock, and I can't imagine what it would have been like had he not been a part of my life. I know what it's like to live alone - I did for three years, but he was there when my 'friends' drifted out of my life. Macmillan do an incredible job of being there, even answering my 'silly' questions! No one needs to be alone with that fear.
This makes me cry as a couple of months before christmas 2013 we were told my mum had lung cancer . She had radiotherapy for it and in may we got told it had worked. #CancerSurvivingMum
Very good ad. Thats just how you feel when told.
powerful, saw it for the first time Wednesday evening (2 days ago) and cried on and off for the rest of the evening whenever I thought about it
This is a very powerful ad. To answer the question that has been asked a couple times previously, the song is "Where Snowbirds Have Flown" from the band A Silent Film out of Oxford. They are an amazing group of guys who believe very strongly in this cause as cancer has affected us all in some way.
When I was told I had Cancer it felt like someone had pressed the fast forward button on my life. This is advert captures that feeling and how blessed we are to be able to rely on MacMillan Cancer Support - thank you x
This made me cry watching it, The ad is a brilliant representation in story and visuals that for me truly captures the emotions and confusion that can happen when receiving such a diagnosis.. and its subsequent impacts on both the patient and those around them. Well done Macmillan and a massive thank you for the wonderful work you do and continue to do for us all...x
I was at work when i got a call from a mac millan nurse called me and said my dad died i dropped the phone in shock i felt alone.Wishing he got treatment sooner after that day to now i have a void in my heart with the help i received from nurses and my fiance il slowly crawling back to reality
Makes me cry every time I see it. The doctors appointment and the piano. Powerful stuff.
Great advert! That's exactly how we all felt when Joyce was told she had pancreatic cancer, and Macmillan was there to help us.
I just saw this for the first time and it made me cry. What a powerful, well-made ad.
A truly touching commercial. Brilliantly well done. A Silent Film's Snowbirds was a great choice as well.
My sister passed away just over 4 years ago when I was 19. The support that she received from Macmillan was incredibly immense. I am ever so grateful for everything that Macmillan did for not just her but my family as well. I want to do some fund raising this year for both Macmillan & Bowel Cancer UK. Thank you for being here Macmillan x
I exactly feel the same way as you do. I first saw this ad on a Supersonic Rewards page included in a browser game I'm currently playing. I usually don't view advertisement videos in its entirety but this video is an exception. I even came here and searched for this ad just to check out the comments section and read what others think. Well, I'm not alone to say that this advert really touched my heart.
This ad is so thought through and so touching!
Fab advert I had goose bumps and chills
This advert gets me every single time, so moving. Amazing at getting the message across
Saw this yesterday and I cried my eyes out! Had me thinking of my Nan.
You are the strongest person, and it's important you find that with cancer. I can't deny the support I eventually got from my partner, and also from the online Mac straight off. But you are going to be dealing with this on your terms with your med pros.
Gosh, This made me cry, Well done MacM, a very honest and moving ad. Thankyou for your continued support. x
A very moving & impressive advert. I've made a donation.
You've put into words exactly what I wanted to say. Even in a few frames she manages to give a powerful image.
This is a beautiful advert.
Hi, I was dianosed with cancer in November 12 and this was exactly how I felt with hearing my dianosis. I am a 44 year old mans man and this advert had me sobbing like a baby. So powerful and moving.
Oh God, it's brilliant. I wept.
Brought me tears.
Huh, very short and and straight to point. Excellent, very good...
Thank you for your donation.
3 years ago my dad was diagnosed with terminal cancer a week before Christmas, he very sadly died a couple months later at the age of 41. Very powerful, moving ad, really hits home :(
This advert needs to win an award. The first time I saw this I was nearly in tears! Very very powerful!
This advert makes me cry every time I watch it - the advert is incredibly powerful and incredibly true. I remember feeling like this when I found out about my godmother... I hope she will be okay. :(
This is exactly how I felt when I had my news, like falling down but manny arms around me before I hit the floor. Brilliant, Brilliant! Who came up with the ad?
The track is a re-arrangement of a beautiful song by the British band, A Silent Film. The track is called Snowbirds.
This is the most moving ad I've ever seen! It still gives me goosebumps after watching it a few times
Thank you for all your kind words Patsy and for your support too.
Always makes me cry. Anytime I hear that song no matter where I am.
Few times have I been so moved,
Anyone who is diagnosed with this horrible shit yet can still smile is a fucking hero, I watched my grand dad get the life sucked out of him by this horrible shit, I would kill any man on the planet for him back! All the best pal!
This makes me cry every time i see this advert, so emotional
Such a powerful advert.
So tough watching this. I am glad I have picked Radiography (Radiotherapy and Oncology) at university. Watching this inspires me even more to study hard and help treat those with cancer!
Fantastic , thank you for everything you do.
Wow. Have me a chill. Powerful
Thank you Leon
A very touching video. The disease doesn't discriminate and doesn't hit only those that seem to be "good candidates". Cancer is indeed not tough on the patients, but on the loved ones as well.
The song is by "a silent film" its called - 'where snowbirds have flown'
Makes me cry
Thank you
Oh my gosh... I actually cried!
The song is called Snowbirds - Silent Film ...There is an live version on RUclips...truly a beautiful song!
Powerful yeah but it is still sad that in some areas i went in yesterday, representing Macmillan Cancer Support to get more people involved in caring and supporting the unfortunate one weren't interested at all. The most repeated answer i got yesterday was 'not interested'. I came home without a sign up and watched the ad again asking myself what should we do more to make people aware about the Practical, Emotional and Financial Support we the Macmillan Cancer Support offer to not only the patients but their family also.
I have known and lost at least 5 people that have died with cancer in the last 4 years.... The youngest was 36. I have attended more funerals than weddings and christenings. I almost feel like i'm waiting for my turn..... :(
This is beautiful.
my dad has bowel cancer and im really broken inside its very powerful
Same here, exactly the same here...stay strong, your not alone
Gives me such Goosebumps! :(
Highly emotive. Made me cry and think of my loved ones. I am so proud to be part of the MacMillan team and will continue to do all that I can to promote theatre aware ness and support. Together we can beat beat cancer. Xx
Very true this advert.
It's a rearrangement of Snowbirds by A Silent Film.
That is beautiful.
I find it amazing we are still no closer to a cure for this terrible illness after all the money that has been poured into different charity organisations, even more amazing was the fact the an ex Royal Marine was on the Cancer ward the same time as myself and was told they'd made a mistake and found he had lung Cancer.
Also I've donated £5 .... I would donate more but I can only save £5 from my lunch money :-) .... Carry on saving lives!
Make me cry
Very powerful ad.
Does anyone know the name of the music?
Pleasse defeat cancer sooner i want my nana to be cured from breast cancer

Please feel freeto give them a call if you'd like to. Take care, Becky
I can't post it for some reason, but if you search for "a silent film snowbirds" through youtube it comes up.
You guys should really see about doing something with the song from this advert. I'm sure lots of people would buy it if it was available.
Have a dear friend with small cell lung Cancer, been told it's aggressive and could spread to other parts of her body, Thought there would have been a cure out now but all they can do is slow it down with Chemo and Radiology. What happens with all the money donated to Charity if we still haven't found a cure for this terrible illness yet and why is it some drugs you can only get privately? She is Heart broken that she is going to die slowly and her life has turned out like this. So sad for her.
Shout out to the composer and cinematographer.
This hits my emotional spot...and i'm a person who doesn't feel emotions much! - also what song is this?
Yet people bang on about how much their tooth hurts why people fight cancer and don't complain.
THE FEELS!!! ERRYTIME!!!
Tell me when you find out too please!
Wow x
I was exactly the same when told , actually I laughed , until it sank in .
Its hard ,especially when nosey people ask stupid questions .
Catch those that fall as someone may have to catch you someday.
This advertisement is so powerful, even with to song :'( what's the name of this song?
RIP grandpa.....
How are things with you now?
Every time:-(
I'm sorry to hear about your husband and that you felt unsupported, could you please let us know more so we can investigate further. Could you please email community @ macmillan . org . uk? (Without the spaces)
