I have never rooted so much for someone in my life. I don't even know you, but I feel like I do after watching so many of your videos. I hope your side effects ease off. All the best to you.
Classical Music11 Well said! We feel the same in our family towards this guy! Come on, Dan, keep fighting! 💪🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💪🏻
Classical Music11
HERE! HERE! Spot on...Dan you are so loved and cared for, keep that love close to your beautiful heart and amazing soul, and also... Play that bloody gig, Dude!🤘TaTa for now!!!! ❤️👍🙏✊🇺🇸
Classical music 11 of course you know dan,you are part of dans army xxxx
Saaaaaaame. Both Dan and Emily Hayward. I don't know what drew me to their channels, but something did and I've become so invested now, I'm going to be so sad if they both don't pull through this.
Classical Music11 Ian the same! I get so happy when I see a blog
You the man, Dan. Chemo is so toxic, it has to be. I was on the stuff for 18 months. It wasn't pretty. Soldier on. You've got a lot of people with you.
It's less toxic than thoughts and prayers at least.
Chris Doucette, It was awful when I went through it as well. Not fun stuff; however, you just have to deal with it. It stinks, but that's what you've got to do! I don't know what else to say!
Sending lots of love and support your way Dan! 🇺🇸❤️🇬🇧
Soooooooo sad....
Dan I am so sorry.. We all are pulling for you and care deeply.. Just be careful for you immune system and going outdoors..
we all rooting for you Dan xx
That impression you gave...lol! Your personality still shines through, amazing as it is!! Sending more strength and love! ❤️❤️❤️
It isn't fair. Stay strong. Don't stress.
You we’re in my dream last night and so was Becca. She was wearing her dress and you came back just to see her... it was so realistic and it is staying on my mind today.... i hope you are at peace angel 🙏
So much love and prayers from South Carolina ~ I've never followed anyone with cancer and you are my superHERO .. With all my heart and soul I pray for your healing. Your so amazing ! Muahhh
Love you Dan, yes I can sympathise with your wanting to feel good for one day so I hope it’s Friday for your brother’s gig and you enjoy. Have got the subscription and tapped the bell for your parents videos. Sleep well, here’s hoping you have a restful night 😘😘😘😘
Chris Trinder, AMEN!! Nice comment!! I agree 100%!!!
Stay in the game! Fight! You can shock the world man!
yayaya mate give her the old shokka treatment
Describing what you’re going through is not moaning! And we really appreciate all the details as it helps us understand what you are going through. You are doing a great job! We are praying for you! Be blessed in Jesus Name !🙏🏻
Dan...wishing you the best from Virginia USA. You are loved my friend.
I really feel for you Dan i only had chemotherapy for 6 hours and it nearly killed me so I stopped all the treatment , but that's my choice and that's 2 years ago and I never looked back but I wish you all the best Dan and keep fighting xx
carol whitham, I know, it IS miserable isn't it?! I don't think I could do it again, but that's me. (Mine was 6 months, fetal position in bed. No going out anywhere for me....barely could make it to the bathroom.) Good for you that you've held your own since then!! All the best being sent to Dan during this difficult time. Hope he can really enjoy his outing!! :)
carol whitham what other option are there
chemo is really stupid. is literally poison. no wonder why people die so fast after chemo treatments.
HUGE HUGS again from the USA. I just had a Cancer scare and it came back ok. I do not appreciate life as much as everyone else does, so if I was told I had Terminal Cancer I would only ask for pain medication to get me to the last day and nothing else. I do not really enjoy life. You must really enjoy life and I wish I was just like you because you are freaking incredible. WE LOVE YOU HERE IN THE STATES..
God, I love you!!!! 😉...you encourage me, uplift me and make me smile every time I watch ur vids. I smile out of admiration for your amazing spirit and tenacity in fighting this rotten plague called cancer. I pray ur scan shows smaller tumors, I hope ur side effects lesson and b sure to wear ur mask! Oh, how I hated wearing those. But the low wbc counts leave one so vulnerable to infections. Take no risks. Enjoy Nine Inch Nails....so jealous!!! Be well my friend. You truly are my inspiration. As always, much love from the Big Apple ❤️🗽❤️
I've gotten mouth ulcers thanks to chemotherapy drugs, nausea, a bit of hair loss... Its a lot but were doing it because we want to live and live happy! Love You XxXxXxXx xXxXxX XxXxXxX
GirlyGirl Hippy Thank you 💚
What a nice way to express how life and happiness are so precious. 💝💝💝
Lots of love from Arizona!
I’m in Arizona too!
Sarah Shepard me too!
Another Arizonan here! We send you tons of love.💞
One more!!!!
Me too!
No words to express, your strength ,determination...love to you Mom and Dad....subscribe
Hope you feel better Dan, love you!
I wish I could help, hold your head while you puke... your just really struggling and someone should be there to comfort you somehow. Stay strong!
Aloha friend!
I’m sorry you’re having such massively bad side effects.☹️ I know it takes a whole lot of strength for you to still update us. It’s really appreciated! You’re a truly awesome guy, to be so transparent in showing us your true journey, to educate others. I will definitely be watching your mom and dad’s vlog! Love, hugs and prayers from Oahu!💚🌈💜🌈❤️
so great to see you Dan :)
RIP Dan . This is so unfair you only had three months left at this point . Life sucks
Yes please keep the bucket at hand and adult briefs. Ive had 4 rounds of Carboplatin and 12 rounds Taxol. (5 months) and still recovering 2 years on. Take the Zophran and antianxiety every 3 hours round the clock. And conservative energy. Don't stress or tax the body. Good vibes. Rest well.
Lorrie Dawn hope you make a full recovery Lorrie xxx
Come on admit it your pretending to be on big brother hehehehe💞💞💞
I just want to hug him bless him, he is so funny so when he's looking bad its such a sad sight
Tracy Warner Lol, yes, the diary room lol...I only noticed when you mentioned it!
Sending lots of love and support you from Indonesia 🇮🇩
Fighting like a Boss.
Dan, you're such an amazing young man and despite your struggles that you've got a lot of love and support from most people who's been watching you and your journey. Wishing to give you a hug. Prayers your way, dude
Just keep warm and be sure to keep your immune system up. Protect yourself from any nasties.
Prayers ty For the updates
Elizabeth Moon prayers won't help. Science will.
Dear Dan, feel so much for you, do you think palliative care would be better would be better for you than all the sickness you have at the moment. Quality of life rather than quantity of life?
Thank you for the honest update. Your candid conversations are important for people who don't know the real effects of chemotherapy. It's certainly not roses and champagne. Much love and prayers going up for you.
Dan....thanks for your update. So sorry you are having such terrible side effects from the chemo. Just know you are in my daily thoughts and prayers. Can’t wait to see your parents first video. I think of them so much. Love you 🌸🌼
My volume is turned right up but your vlog seemed quiet! Sorry you're going through this Dan. Chemo is a poison so it's no wonder you're experiencing so many side effects. I hope it works for you.
Alison Ryley noticed that too
Alison Ryley Use captions upper right hand of screen....dotted little lines/many options including captions.
I found it quiet too
I just put headphones in to hear it better
I can't hear unless in max volume either.
I can hardly hear him either..
Hey dan , im so sorry your finding your chemo so rough 🙁 please keep an eye on your sickness , if its so forcefull and very frequent it could tear your oesophagus ( im a nurse practitioner and work in palliative care) im glad your going to hospital when needed but im so sorry your even going through this , my heart goes out to you but i just wanted to say i think you have amazing courage and an amazing attitude , in late 2016 i myself was diagnosed with bladder cancer , so from a person who has been there with how rough the treatment makes u feel i think your doing amazing , all the research and documentation of how your doing will im sure go on to help so many others . You are truly a very brave soul and i think your parents are very proud of you , much love xx
Hello handsome...Cannot imagine what your going through. Look forward to seeing your mum and dad's vlog.
are you gonna plumb that bum?
I know how bad the chemo sickness can be, as I went through it with my dad. It's absolutely awful! 🤢
His potassium levels kept dropping (which can cause heart problems). I wasn't warned that could be a problem, and I got him into hospital quickly (thankfully!)
Hope the sickness gets better for you.
Sending you healing vibes and positive thoughts from Scotland 💖
I can tell you're quite sick and I wish you weren't, but since you are, I LOVE your positive attitude throughout all you go through and you manage to be positive and have a little humor! We love you!
I've never seen anyone going through chemo look SO GOOD, and I've seen a few! Great genes!!!
Keep looking UP!!!!
Dan, theough out your illness, you didn't lose your facial, head and body hair. You were the most handsome patient I ever knoew. I think of you everyday!!!!!! Love, Marvine :--)
I really admire your will - it's incredibly strong and your commitment to your channel is awe inspiring. Side effects from chemo really, really suck. So, so sorry you are going through this at the moment. Also, back to back medical appointments are stressful in themself, cos you have to psych yourself up to go, even if you feel like sh*t. Good luck with the scan and I hope you have a great time at the gig and are able to conserve your energy for that one. All the best
dude... why you go for chemo? dont you know its just helps in 2,3% of cancer cases... most die within 5 years.... there are many alternatives without any side effects...
Man you are strong, stronger than you think. Much love from Saint-Petersburg, Russia
Hi Dan. I haven’t heard you mention the name of the pain medication you are taking. I tried all sorts of pills. The last one I tried was morphine. Boy did that screw me up. Then my doctor suggested a fentanyl patch. That has proven to be effective, though I still have breakout pain. I wear the patch all the time, changing it every 3rd day. Just thought I’d mention it in case you are still having a lot of pain. Based on what you said I think you are experiencing a lot of pain. Dan, you are one of the loveliest and bravest people I have ever seen!! My heart aches seeing you like this. Please know you have oodles of people praying and rooting for you.
😘😘😘 always great vids you are just too handsome 😍 so far away tho lol. Hope you have a wonderful day 💕💕 as always in my prayers bless your heart ❤️
Dan said he had recorded a bunch of stuff to be shown after his death. I'm curious if we'll ever see any of that?
No, his brother said at his celebration of life that he didn't end up recording anything for after his death so he could "spend more time doing the things he loved"
To be fair you do look like you need to rest.
I hope the results from the scan will be good x
Oh, Dan, I am sorry it's hitting you so hard - let's hope it's clobbering the tumours even harder! We're all thinking about you and cheering you on. Nul illegitime carborandum (and I bet I've spelt that wrong ;) )
I wish there was a way to help you? Do you accept fan mail? Small things may help in some sort of way. Letters or gifts or snacks just to make things easier on you and your family. If so let us know :) Praying for you! God bless!
So wish this chemo wasn’t making you so sick pal 😔 rest rest and more rest. You are such a strong person. Respect xxxx
he's the only guy on chemo whos not losing his hair
imee andrade it’s due to the type of chemo he’s on only half of chemos make you lose hair some like long term one I’m on only thin your hair out. He looks great it’s just so sad he’s feeling so poorly isn’t it? What a lovely guy x
Diana Murray i don't know.i have a feeling he's does'nt really have a cancer.he looks healthy.most people who has cancer like my cousin which has the same disease as him is thin and bald and very weak
imee andrade no not at all!!!! This is not the case I can assure you! Dan has filmed post op wounds/scars after surgery as well as filming during chemo in the royal mardsen hospital so it’s outrageous what your saying. I’ve been on chemo for 2 years as part of ongoing really severe arthritis treatment my hair has thinned not fallen out and I look healthy even although I feel sick and very tired after injection every week. I assure you this man is genuine
Diana Murray ok if u say so! he just looks so healthy to be sick
God bless him, he's a brave man. Good luck, my friend. May God heal your wounds.
Our prayers are with you.
maggie magana at least spell it right
Nookie Nookie fuck off
Everything Adam fuck OFF
So you both are the troll's that Dan's talking about. You both are prosthetic to sit there and poke fun of me when this man is dealing with cancer and you want to come after me you want to be a Fucking teacher then go to fucking school and be a fucking teacher and correct their work other than that go FUCK OFF.
Dan or anyone else can answer this question, but how long can chemo prolong his life? I ask because I wonder if it’s worth it to go through so much sickness from chemo, rather than move forward and live life to the fullest with the time left, without the horrific symptoms chemo gives every day ya know. I don’t know, I’m new to the channel, but man my heart breaks for him and his family. I admire the determination and the purpose behind documenting it all, boy do I, it’s just hard to watch someone that seems like a genuinely good human being go through this. 😞
Angela Crevier It's different for every person. Sometimes chemo works really well and other times it may have no effect at all. His doctors will run tests to determine this. He said in previous videos that the doctors predicted two weeks of him still feeling ok before his health declined dramatically. That's when he started chemo as his last option.
He obviously feels that it's worth it for him
Ruby Jean Oh ok that makes sense. And I totally understand trying every possible option, it’s just so sad to see him suffering through chemo when I’m getting the impression it’s not working for his particular cancer. 😞 I hope by some miracle this chemo works for him because he’s a good soul, with the most positive but real outlook on life, he deserves to live through this.
Angela Crevier Unfortunately his cancer is extremely aggressive and terminal. Fingers crossed this buys him some time :) He's a great guy.
What an awful experience you are going through :(. I so hope that you will be able to experience a day soon when you don't feel so terrible. Listening to your story has made me realize what a blessing it is to be in fairly good health - a blessing that most of us don't understand until we don't have it anymore. I wish there was a way to share some of that health with you!!
Oh honey man. Good thoughts to you.
🙏😘💕💕💕💕💕
I am so sorry this is being so difficult. I am praying for you.
Sending prayers your way !
Nice setup
I am sorry Dan! That is why I mentioned quality, over quantity. My Mom went through chemo, as-well-as my late mother-in-law. My Mom survived thank God, but my mother-in-law only a few months, & she was on chemo as well. I also worked for a Hospice, and we stressed quality of a person's life.
I know it is not fun being sick all of the time.
I couldn't put myself through it either but each to their own.
You are so right about quality over quantity. When my mother-in-law was told that she was terminal I begged her to contact Hospice. Her experience with them was so much better than other relatives who chose dying in hospital. Hospice afforded her better pain relief and control over side effects. Also, the family counseling and practical help was excellent. Also, I am so glad that I live in Vermont. It is one of a handful of states that has a Right to Life law. This enables someone who is terminal the choice to end their life once their quality of life has severely degraded. This is the route I will choose if I am facing cancer or any other illness that involves intense end-of-life pain and suffering. Another issue that crops up so often is the expectation that others have that everyone needs to fight when they are in a terminal situation. I had a girlfriend with breast cancer who accepted she was terminal and planned her funeral and said goodbye to everyone. She got so much flack for not "fighting." Not everyone is a warrior.
Timeflyer2 I'm sure your comments are meant well but this is Dan's own personal decision. He needs our support not suggestions of what to do or not do. It's his life.
Jan Warriner : I was in no way suggesting anything for Dan. I was responding to History Lover's comments with examples of how things have played out in my own experiences and my how I would handle things for myself. This was a side discussion. I am 66-years-old and would not expect that someone young as Dan should emulate someone of my age. If I have offended anyone, I deeply apologize.
Timeflyer2 Glad you understood my concern. Dan may read each and every side comment too. I'm older than you but having had the experience with my mother when she was age 60 and caring for her thru her terminal illness I learned that sometimes the best thing to say is nothing at all. We are all going to die and someone young like Dan I feel just needs our loving support. No mention of the future or what our opinion/experience is. Only today, which is all any of us really have. I knew you meant well but...its psychological.
Jesus help him PLEASE!!! Begging You!!!!!!!
The fatigue is so much a part of this. I am more concerned about the vomiting and diarrhea. Try phenergan or Compazine suppositories to help.
I'm glad you're living out loud despite the problems you're having with the chemo, Dan. Good on you! I'd be in bed sleeping all day...pretty sure! Love from New York city! 🌹
RIP XOXO
I just wanna come take care of you. 😢 my heart just breaks.
Dan I just want you to know how much love and support you have and that we are all praying so hard for you to come out on top because we know that you can do this
sending healing vibes! Feel better soon
megz65, Me too! :)
God Bless you Dan Bless your parents and your family. Sleep in you need to rest. Hugs.
How long does the chemo effects last?
Wish I seen his videos before he passed away 😢. He is very inspiring
So they have home health in the UK like we do in the states? I'm not sure why you dont have a permanent port in. If you did, you could get antiemetics and fluids through your port everyday, at home. Plus you wouldn't need iv sticks for your chemo everytime. Both would help a lot.
Melissa Johnson We do have home health in the United Kingdom but there are a lot of things which change and there’s lots of Choices, also greetings from the uk!
Guiny I hope he brings it up to his doctors. With vomiting like he has some fluids would do him some good. It could also give him more options for meds to help the nausea and vomiting. ❤
Melissa Johnson maybe he doesnt want one
I did wonder about a picc line or port myself. I have not been a nurse in England for so long I think in American and then return to England and nursing there. There are some differences. Especially wondering whether the insurance is going to cover it or not!
Samantha Speaks I don't think that anyone that will be needing to be stuck by needles multiple times over a long period of time would not chose to have a have a permanent port put in, if they are given the option. I've noticed on several other youtubers documenting their cancer, that are from the UK, so not have ports placed either. So I'm assuming it's just the way it's done there. Probably because it does require monitoring and maintenance and possibly the NHS see's it as an unnecessary expense. I'm not drowning the NHS, just wondering why. Here in the states, if you're expected to be hospitalized for more than a few days and will be needing iv medications and multiple blood draws, they will give you the option to have a PICC line placed because it eliminates needle sticks.
❤️
❤❤❤
Sending late night greeting from Prague :)
If I saw him on the street, I'd NEVER guess what he's going through.
On the outside he looks handsome, healthy and normal.
On the inside it's a different story.
Sending all the luck and love in the world man.
Please stay on the “alternative” medicines Dan 🙏
In some way we can all relate to feeling stuck and fed up with the current situation. It can be health, unemployment, divorce, death of a loved one, fighting for your life,...But even at your hardest moments you, Dan are still positive and want to LIVE. Sometimes is hard for me to live, but you are my guide that you never give up, no matter how hard it is. You always find light in the darkness. Take care handsome.
So true! ☮
God bless. I had stage 3 Lymphoma in 2011 and lost all my hair by my second round of chemo.
Why do you still have your hair! Thank God my head wasn't shaped like a jelly bean.
Dude, seriously, LAUGH about anything you can. Much love to you and your family.
Get some rest love. Sending you love, hugs positive energy.
Dan. I’ve said this so many times, you are simply amazing 😉
Taking the time to sit down and chat about details of your health when you are clearly feeling sick. Always thinking of others, and ensuring you share and document your experiences with your battle with cancer.
This independent vlog for your parents is such a brilliant idea, as is the diary vlog chair setup for yourself.
Please never feel you need to spend a lot of time editing and location wise for us. We just want to check in with you and see how you are, we don’t expect bells and whistles 😘😘😘
I ask The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful, The King, The Most Holy, The Ultimate Provider of Peace, The Guardian of Faith, The Preserver, The Almighty, The Compeller, The Dominant one, The Creator, The Maker, The Fashioner of Forms, The Ever-Forgiving, The All Subduer, The Bestower, The Sustainer to remove all cancer cells
It’s not nice that you are suffering the side effects of chemotherapy. Try eating ginger biscuits. Apparently they work for morning sickness. And nausea in general. Some thing too do with the ginger. Where are your mum and dads v logs going ? Your website, on here ? Or have they started their own RUclips channels ? You need to rest. And keep yourself hydrated..
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍♥️💋
❤️❤️❤️🍀
Feel for you brother; I can’t imagine what you’re going through. Hang in there.
Still the most handsome Englishman ever! Stay strong. Watching your channel gives me strength. I am Suicidal from time to time due to PTSD. Watching you gives me hope and hope for you as well. You are such a strong individual.
Hi Dan Please don't feel like you have to vlog every day when you're not up to it We all understand Take care of yourself first We're not going anywhere

All the best Dan keep trying. I have lung cancer and had chemo and radiation in January-February. I still feel terrible and my feet tingle so bad they hurt. Now I am on immunotherapy (Durvalumab) every fortnight for twelve months. All the best mate am thinking of you. Love from Australia😎
Dear Sir, I am sorry you have to go through this crappy disease.
Have you looked into natural approaches? If it were me, I would IMMEDIATELY start on a Ketogenic Diet, Intermittent Fasting 18/6 protocol with lots of vegetable juices. ALL THE BEST TO YOU
Wow 91K way to go I remember when it was 2K & under! Lol IV anti-sickness might be better for you!? I throw up every day and can barely eat last 4 years and severe fatigue & weakness is my worst symptom.. so I feel you.. We’re all behind you! Adore your Mum & Dad! I’m on my own through this journey.. Much Love #SuperDan #Warrior ❤️🌈❤️ xxxx
Hey bro, keep up. Just saw your video with diagnostic result. You are looking really not bad even though you have this beast inside. Sending you rays of luck, my sincere wishes for you to get better. I know what it is from another side, my dad passed away 7 days ago with stomach cancer... He dropped 40 kilograms in 5 month and became skinny as bones, while this christmas he was really big guy. So as I see your face I have hope you gonna make it! Good luck and don't give up!
I will pray for you.....
You are a hero Dan and a warrior🏅😘❤️ we love you🌹❤️💖💗💜💋💪🏻Your so strong My heart is with you💙💜💗❤️👍🏻You are the best ta ta bye bye ✋🏻
Hey, Dan good afternoon, you are dealing with so much I am sorry honey wish there was a easier way to get through all that!!!! You rock no doubt about that you are doing your best with all this horriblness. Thanks for updates on you and mum and pops... I found your mom's Instagram as well by chance which was strange because I was looking at some other things and her name came up so I thought way cool since I think your Mum is awesome.. I lost mine this last October and your Mum has her personality so it's my mum but Your Mum. 😊 Hugs and Love, God Bless you Teresa, Alaska
