- A few new developments!
Here are the bullet points:
- Had first 2 appointments to see if I qualify for an early phase trial of a new immunotherapy drug
- I qualified for THREE trials!
- And I got in to the best one :)
- Energy levels are a little low, but otherwise feeling pretty good
Thank you for all of your prayers and suggestions and hugs. I feel all of them! I wish I could reply to each of you individually, but know that I read all of your comments. Much love from me to you!! :)
My next door neighbor , who had lung cancer, and all other treatments failed, got on the immunotherapy and it cured her cancer. Several years after she was to be dead, she is cancer free and doing great.
Maybe miracles can happen. So far been told I have one year to live if I don't have treatment. Chemo sounds horrendous. They say it can't be cured so no hope for me.
Which immunotherapy?
it is a shame they don't offer these options in the beginning while you are still strong. BUT NOOO, they poison you with what they know will most of the time NOT WORKdefinitely
If stage 3 or 4 no way dude
it is possible my dad had stage 4 lung cancer non small type..
he had surgery but there was some tumor left it was to risky to take it all out he did chemotherapy with immunotherapy(keytruda)
he did that for 3 months every 3 weeks after that he went for scan and the tumor died no sign of cancer doctor call it miracle they dont undrestand how this happend..so trust me everything is possible ...its already nearly 1 year in remission
Dan. Went through this 5 1/2 years ago. Squamous cell carcinoma. Metastasized to my lung. Had immune therapy (nivolumab, aka Keytruda) in combination with a lot of radiation. Obviously lived to tell the tale, against the odds. Wishing you a quick recovery and a long healthy life. Pulling for you. Pulling for you. Pulling for you
My husband is struggling with same. Nivolumab did not work
Hey, was it Nivolumab/Opdivo or Pembrolizumab/Keytruda? They are both PD1 immune checkpoint therapies but Opdivo is usually given to non-solid tumour related cancers whereas Keytruda is given to patients with solid tumors. I guess it was Keytruda?
Great to hear about your recovery from metastatic disease. Are you still on treatment or has your immune defence taught itself how to recognise the cancer? In that case, you've had a complete response to the treatment. That's amazing as well as inspiring:)
so so happy for you man. my dad had keytruda, but unfortunately it didn't help much for his bone metastasis. they told us it's not as effective for hard tissues such as bone.
My father battled Mesothelioma (asbestos cancer) and was given 8 months. After chemo failed, they gave him Keytruda (AKA: Pembrolizumab) and eventually led to no evidence of disease. That was about 7 years ago. Still cancer free. Immunotherapy is going to continue to evolve and improve for most cancers.
I have a feeling Dr.Dan will be saying he has 2 months left 10 years from now! Keep shining we love ya!
I hope and pray you’re right!!!🤞🙏❤
If he keeps agreeing with that, that's speaking negativity and he agrees with it.
Sending much love and prayers to you
I completely identify with what you are saying about not giving up. I was diagnosed with HIV in 1986. I was wasting away and dying slowly in 1995 and the new meds (cocktails) became available in 1996 and here I am thriving with great health in 2023! Backpacking and learning jazz piano playing…having a good time! I hope the new treatment will help you. Don’t give up!
That is amazing!!! So happy for you.
@@kathleenmcbride1471 Thank you!
I’m happy to hear this. These drugs were not available for my brother. He died in 1990
Love that, and so happy for you. Continued good health and God Bless you 🙏🙏🙏
God Bless you!! May God heal you!!
You look great, I had stage 4 esophageal cancer. I went for chemotherapy and radiation for 23 days straight. I had surgery on July 20th and am now cancer free. I'm doing 6 treatments of immunotherapy now. Stay positive
I'm so happy for you! What a story
@@flyingwaffle123 Fantastic. May you forever be free of that horrid disease!
🙏🙏🙏
God Bless you! My husband was diagnosed with kidney and liver cancer 4 years ago so we are on this journey as well. Scans every 3 months but so far no new tumors. Life is precious. Stay strong!
Praying for you. Look forward to your story
Dan, I hope you have a wonderful treatment and that in December we can celebrate that you are free or at least in the right path to be cancer-free.
I have everyone in my church praying for you. That’s 2.5 thousand Australians praying and cheering you on 🙏 👏 you got this mate 💪🏼
Wow. that's awesome!
How sweet of you!
This is amazing. I’ve always been a lover of all things Aussie, even though I’m Cuban-American. Thank you for praying for a wonderful man!
@@lIlIIIIIIIlIl You're right. It only takes 1 person with faith to pray for healing. No big hooha service required.
@@lIlIIIIIIIlIl there is no numbers game. I only mentioned the number so Dan would know how many people care about him
I wish we'd hear from you Dr. Dan with another up date or even just a hello and check in. You are in our prayers. Love and good mojo back at you.
How is Dr Dan doing now with this immuno therapy? We are anxiously waiting to hear the updates from Dr Dan.
My mother was diagnosed with kidney cancer at 61 yrs old and given only a 35% chance of survival. She lived to a ripe old age of 82 and was told she was a miracle. No reason you can’t also get your miracle. Wishing you many more decades here with us…
pancreatic cancer is a little bit different. Most of the time, there is only 1% chance of survival
Dan, I am facing a terminal dx too, it’s in my liver, bones and small lung nodules. I sure hope you exceed our “expiration” dates, love your channel. Hang in there bro, we are all praying for you. Plz have them check out that cough.
Wishing you the best too and bless you for your encouragement to Dr D.
A moment of love from a stranger. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@techshabby0001 thank you, you made my day!
@@riteoncourse thank you from my heart
My gym buddy 3 years ago had a big lump under her arm, it was melanoma, they couldn't find the primary, luckily she had a specialist that got her on immunotherapy , she gets scans every 3 months , and no signs of it recurring, it is the best treatment, some side effects, but compared to chemo , nothing
Melanoma stage 3b is pretty bad , but she is going good
I wish you every bit of healing with this, you are only young, lots of life to live, your attitude is awesome
Keep positive always, healing from Australia
He tweeted on Twitter (X) on Nov 17, posted a picture, was looking great!
Why there and not here?
Dan, if you have the energy, let us know how things are going for you. We all are hoping for you to be strong as only you can be.
❤ would love to hear good news for him😊
I’ve read that immunotherapy can be brutal because while it stimulates the immune system to attack the cancer, it produces life-threatening side effects. It can produce startlingly good results though.
@@DJ-bj8ku yes, it creates a autoimmune disease of sorts, by eliminating the constrains on t cells, they start to attack healthy cells too, we need to use AI to improve these medications and for this, we need more funding
I have been severely depressed for awhile now, and hearing your perspective on life and the positivity you exude despite grappling with a bleak prognosis… you really inspire me Dan.
I try not to get down on myself or fall prey to the urge to self-attack for feeling depressed despite living a relatively good life, but your attitude does encourage me to try and find the good in my existence and to seek to cultivate a real, meaningful and enduring sense of hope for my future and the potential that it may hold.
Thank you for being you, and for touching the lives of so many strangers just like me… your words mean more than you might ever know.
I too suffer with debilitating depression, along with health problems. 😢 Anyone outside looking in, would not understand why I should be so depressed. I totally agree with you. Dan is an inspiration!
I'm so glad that you're feeling well! My friend Janie had cancer that had metastasized all over her body. Doctors gave her 2 to 6 months to live but she lived almost 4 years! In fact, she outlived her husband and sister. Keep up that positive attitude. I'm sure that's what kept Janie with us for so long. Lots of prayers going your way!
Hoping this happens for my sister. Glioblastoma dx late June. Rad and oral chemo. She doesn’t qualify for any trials. So hard. Recently widowed, no children.
I hope you are all right Doc. So worried about you, it’s been weeks since you made video. You are a fighter and if there are higher forces please send to our Doc love, light and renew his every cell with a new healthy ones.
Your story is helping so many people. It's November 19 and I am sending an ocean of prayers your way! 🙏🌺
So darn strange, you look amazing! I would never guess you have cancer, much less be terminal. Hang in there, miracles do happen!
Thanks, that's what I'm shooing for lol -- to be the healthiest-looking cancer patient out there! Hopefully that helps my chances :)
@@DrDanSays The thing is...we're ALL "terminal"..! Good luck on your efforts to "kick the can down the road"...I'm rooting for you!
@@DrDanSayswhy dont you just "Break Bad" and CRUSH YOUR ENEMIES?!!
Or do something COOLloke a "Rich Russell" Skyking type deal
You got this, I can feel it. You're too damn healthy to succumb to it. Prayers sent !
Mindset
See. This is what I mean. It’s not mindset. It’s SCIENCE and extremely aggressive treatment.
@@Bruised-Not-Broken what do you mean"see"?
I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Non Small Cell Adenoca Lung cancer June 2017. Started Keytruda February 2018 because Chemo did not work. Stopped Keytruda September 2022 because insurance would no longer cover the cost because I had been showing no sign of disease for over a year.
I thank God for my miracle and giving man the wisdom to develop the drug Keytruda.
This Earthly journey is but brief for all of us, just for some more brief than for others. None of us should fear death. Is it any different than going to bed at night and then waking up in the morning? Close your eyes one minute and open them the next to a different reality. We so trust waking up. We trust waking up to the same reality? But everything changes. Could dying be a different way to live? Dying is a different way to live. Nothing’s ever really dead if you look at it right. Much love & light to you, sweet man.
I was reading an article about the English singer Chris Rea. He was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer at the age of 33. He's now 72. I hope you have the same outcome, you're a good decent human being, who deserves a long life.
Interesting that you should mention Chris Rea. He is one of my favorites and I have been thinking of him the last couple of days. I saw him in Germany in the 80s and it was an amazing . I had not heard that he had pancreatic cancer. I am sending prayers to him and Dr. Dan from NC.
@@allthebest744 Please look at my cancer rocks please look at fenbendazole. My wife had stage 4 CC no chemo please stop with the doctors we are 28 in the world with cancer research
In which stage he diagnosed
Hi Dr Dan ❤i just want to say we all love you more then words can say. God Bless you. Your in my prayers every day 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😇😇😇🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😇😇😝
Hello 👋 Beautiful Lady 🌹..How are you and the weather condition like ?
Still praying for you daily. Please let us know you're ok Dan 👍 ❤
Do you know is he on other social media? Sure hope he is doing as well as can be hoped for.
@@jillglass4914 No he has not posted anything his treatment was supposed to start 2 days ago his Cough is worrisome hope he is doing ok!
@@jillglass4914 I don't know. I don't follow any other social media?
He hasn't posted on Ig. I've been checking there as well.
Yes, he posted on X a few days ago
Dan, I have added you to our prayer list at church. Stay strong.
The best treat on Halloween is to hear Dr. Dan so upbeat, looking good and feeling well. I admire your positivity and great attitude!
The strength of this man is beyond belief.
Hope he posts, it's been 2 weeks
Hello Dr. I used to live in Austin back in 2015-2018, spent 15+ years in Houston area also. ATX such a great town. I lived off Riverside and Congress. Miss my P Terry’s, Blacks BBQ, the Lake and so much more. What does this reminiscing have to do with your current situation? Nothing other than a stranger sharing good ole memories of somewhere in Texas with a doctor who I consider my friend and family. Wishing you continued courage that YOU have shown ALL of US!
Wow you are 100% correct. I have patients that i try to explain this to. Even if there's about a 2% chance of survival, why can't YOU be that 2%... praying for you constantly. Do you have family that is there for you and supporting you? Wife, children, parents, siblings etc? You're such a giving person i hope you are being given love and support by people all around, and a hug. Hugs heal us. Don't forget to hug those around you that you love!
My brother is fighting Bowel / liver cancer . You are a inspiration to us . Thank you for sharing your story 🇬🇧
Ive never rooted for a stranger as hard as im rooting for you. I found your channel by chance and now im locked in and often wondering how youre doing. I believe you will be the acception and be cancer free.
I was diagnosed with cancer earlier this year. Your optimism has been so helpful to me. Good luck with the new treatment. Dont give up!
My prayer is that you get a miracle!!!!! You deserve it.❤️
-Kim🙋♀️
My identical twin brother has Stage IV colorectal cancer. Been following your journey closely. Excited for your immunotherapy! Be well.
Kind thoughts to you and your brother. I have twin sons❤❤
My husband is battling Stage IV colorectal cancer also. My thought are with your family. It is very hereditary - please get yourself checked regularly.
@@lynnmahan154,
Thank you...
@@tinahauser8864,
I know that this is very hereditary so despite the every 5 year recommendation, I request a colonoscopy every single year.
@@beverly9,
That’s a fair question that I wish I had an answer for. I’m not sure why I was spared but he says he had no symptoms till the end and when he got checked out, it was Stage IV.
Happy birthday, Dr. Dan, I believe you said nov 18th is your bday.
Please, we have all been worried, your last post, though you were your perky happy self. But the news didn't sound some of it good. So please can you or someone close to you tell us how you are. Hoping your birthday brings many dreams and wishes come true. Prayers for you always. Your little cough, I'm hoping, was allergies like you thought. Hope you started the trial?
Please, yes, keep that positive way you have. Please get back to us . Even a short update would be great! Hope to hear soon.
This beautiful man is going to outlive all of his viewers and fans 😂😂!!!
I’m so glad you are feeling good. Thank you for allowing us to go with you on this journey. God Bless you! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
And thank you for being so wonderful and supportive!
Dr. Dan you look and sound amazing! I pray the immunotherapy treatment works for you and that you have decades to enjoy life! 😚
Today is Nov.12 2023, really worried about how you are doing, hope you are doing OK??!! Hang in there!
20th. Sigh
Happy birthday, Dan. Hope you had a huge piece of birthday cake-cancer cells be damned.
I'm still lifting you up and praying for you. I do hope this immunotherapy works. Good to see you looking so good.
You look great! It’s hard to comprehend you could be in your last weeks or months. I think you’ll surprise your docs! Hang in there! 🎃
I just have to say what a wonderful man you are. Your optimism is infectious and much needed in this world. Praying that God's plan for you is a lengthy stay with us and what you are experiencing is just a bad bad bump in your life's journey. Happy Birthday and the 15th will be here soon.
I hope you are feeling OK Dr Dan. You are in my thoughts.
❤ Daniel, you DO have an ocean of prayers flying in to you from out here! Every day is a blessing. You have many, many, more to come. We send blessings from Oregon. ❤
My Friend, I've only just recently become aware of your channel and your situation.
I'm sure that all of us out here are keeping you in our prayers.
My high school sweetheart was diagnosed with lung cancer metastatic to his brain, spine, lymph system, liver and spleen. His doctor told him that he had 2 months to live. He was given chemo at Mt. Sinai in NYC followed by immunotherapy with Ketruda. He has completed immunotherapy after 2 years on Ketruda and there is now no sign of cancer. Immunotherapy is even making the oncologists re-think the traditional outlook on cancer. My friend is feeling great and at 82 years old, he's still enjoying riding his Harley, fishing and all of his favorite activities. He feels better than I do with my 2 autoimmune diseases. I hope you have excellent results!
Dan, I’m 72 and recently diagnosed with merkel cell carcinoma. A very aggressive cancer. I’m a retired oncology nurse. Your talks are very encouraging. Everything you say is so right and important. One thing you need to think about is the Lord. Believe on the Lord Jesus and thou shalt be saved. My wife and I will be praying for you and thank you so much for your you tube talks. Love you man!! 💙🙏
No, man, he *doesn’t* need to think about the Lord. You can if it works for you but as he’s said in previous videos, he doesn’t believe in some spooky father figure up in the sky.
@@DJ-bj8ku :O Really?
@@sl4983 Really
@@DJ-bj8kuDo you have to get so aggressive when Christianity is brought up in conversation?
I'm in total agreement with the comment about getting right with God. None of us knows when we will die, but God knows. He's not some father figure in the sky. He's the eternal creator of all things. Where we go after we die is a choice each of us makes while we're still alive. Scripture says, "It is appointed to man once to die and then the judgment." Repentance means to turn away from sin. Lying, stealing, lust, fornication, adultery, etc. We're all sinners. But if we sincerely repent and trust in Jesus Christ for our eternal salvation, we will be assured of our final destination, heaven with the Lord. If we reject God's free offer of salvation through the redemptive work of Christ on the cross, our eternity is in hell. Be careful, be wise, don't waste time because it's very short. And once you breathe your last, there's no going back.
Thanks for checking in 😊 you are incredible how you handle your situation- a real role model ❤ all the best 🙏
I know you'll beat this Dr. Dan!! Keep being the positive and amazing person that you are!!
Hello, is there any way to get an update on Dr. Dan??? We have been praying for him since we learned of his condition. We love Dr. Dan, we all hope he has peace of mind and we appreciate him for allowing us into his life. His faith, courage and positive outlook on life has really changed our perspective on life and what is truly important . We will never be the same, we are better people for knowing Dr. Dan. God Bless you Dr. Dan!!!
I am praying that we get some positive news soon.
@@JDCUSAor anything?
I'm trying to find out too.
Praying for you Sir. Your attitude and physical preparedness are extraordinary. Many people are praying for you. Be as ready spiritually as you are mentally and physically. Now is the time.
I'm one who's been praying for you Dr. Dan. I've been on my own journey with ovarian cancer and unlike you I've not handled it well mentally. You're such an inspiration to me with your positive attitude and you look great! Cancer is so hard not just physically but emotionally as I've battled extreme anxiety and depression which I take many drugs for. You are the strongest person I've seen fighting this and I pray the immunotherapy destroys all the cancer cells. Blessings to you!
My best friend has ovarian cancer.... I had anal cancer myself. I understand the anxiety and depression. Have you practiced mindfulness strategies at all? Also, my friend has gotten very good results with immunotherapy after a hipec surgery which almost killed her. I just had my annual CT scan yesterday and await results. So far, 3 years no cancer. I wish you the best! Stay busy, exercise if and when you can and engage with friends and family as much as possible. Kind thoughts to you. ❤
@@lynnmahan154 Blessings to you and your friend. I also had the hipec surgery last year--a tough surgery for sure! I asked my onc about immunotherapy and he told me it's not effective on ovarian cancer? I also am having next CT scan on Friday so am a bundle of nerves over that.
I was diagnosed with breast cancer and I completely fell apart. I got hooked on Ativan (here, take one of these before chemo!) and I started drinking, which I never had done before. I had a sh*tty attitude. My kids were 6 and 4. That was 31 years ago - despite basically trying to kill myself before the cancer could, I survived. Every scan terrified me. I know how you feel and you have every reason to - cancer sucks. But pls just hang in there and keep me posted. I care. Much love from NYC
Breast cancer fighter here. I can tell you the anxiety that comes with a cancer diagnosis is extreme. I must practice mindfulness 10 times a day just to try and remain in the moment and not spiral and even that barely works some days. Dr. Dan is an inspiration. Thinking positively for you and Dr. Dan.
@@kate-ot5lv❤
Dr Dan I just want to let you know how much of an inspiration you are to me. I am about a month and a half into my own battle with stage 3 colorectal cancer and i am living my best life ever!! Watching your videos has taught me so much and your positivity is so contagious!!! My faith in my savior Jesus Christ, my family, and your videos keep me stronger than i have ever been in my life. I pray for you everyday for your healing and complete recovery!! You deserve all of life’s rewards and i will never stop praying for you!!! You have touched my life more than you will ever know!!!
Prayers and good luck to you too. Please keep us posted 🙏🙏🙏
I just completed my third round of folfoxiri. I fasted for 48hrs before each round and have had zero side effects thus far. I researched fasting before chemo and apparently when you fast before chemo it protects your healthy cells and makes the cancer cells sensitive to the chemo. After two rounds they did a cea blood test that measures tumor activity in your body. When i was diagnosed my cea was 35 and after two rounds it dropped to 8!!!!! Im getting very close to the normal cea level!! Ive stayed positive like dr dan, and the power of prayer, faith, and fasting is getting me through this!!!
God bless you my friend .....U will beat this 🙏👌👍
I’m so looking forward to your birthday update video where we celebrate you and your first Trial experience! You’re as sharp as ever, and looking strong and vibrant! Cheers to a successful trial! So thankful to hear you’re feeling well. Know that we’re going to continue to blanket you with love, prayers and good healing vibes. ❤
Dan, your positivity is inspiring and a blessing to us who’ve watched you fiercely and fearlessly battle for your precious life especially this past year. I don’t usually comment, but just wanted to let you know I’m rooting and praying for your success and victory, and many more happy healthy decades of life ❤
I made an appointment last Wednesday with Dr Bockman for December 6th so he must be doing okay
So good to hear that!!
You are killing the fear of death in many, thank you for that job and well done! 🎆
Hi Dan please share updates good or not so good , we all love and pray for you , please don’t feel you should only share when your feeling upbeat , we are here for you regardless ❤️🙏🏻
Dr. Dan, I know several people who were told they had months to live and they all lived for many years. Only God knows. Live each day one at a time and live it well. Sending you prayers & positive thoughts.
Praying to Lord Jesus to heal you sir!
I can't imagine pulling for someone harder than I am you, Dr. Dan. Everything about you is inspiring. I believe you're going to beat the odds. You're doing everything right and you've got the perfect attitude. Keep living your life. ❤
Dr Dan - i am a young stage 4 colon cancer patient myself , i so understand what you are going through. ( i was diagnosed stage 4 in 2019 ). Its amazing what they are doing with treatments now - i will include you in my prayers. God is good!
How r you now?are you cancer free
Please pray for my husband who is just diagnosed colon cancer stage 4 just 39 he is
Dan, you definitely can be one who beats the odds. My neighbor had stage 4 breast cancer and that was 17 years ago and she is now 80 years old and doing great. Love your positive attitude....
Praying for you❤😊 I agree with working through cancer treatment if you can. My dad begged me to keep working while I fought breast cancer, he was right. You are a blessing. 🙏😢🎃
R u in remission now
All my prayers.
You look great.
Your positivity is contagious 😊
I hope to God you are still here. I just learned of your existence 11.14.2023. And just found out your birthday is 11.18.23. I hope you meet your goal. Again, I’m posting while watching your video. I’m going to check back on the 18th, in hope that you post. 🕊️❤
Saying a prayer for you as I type this. I have faith you will overcome this. God bless.
Someone has to be that 18%, I pray it will be you❤
I’m going through treatment now for male breast cancer. I’ve never looked or felt so good yet deathly ill. Your irony is very relatable. Hugs!
What were your symptoms?
Symptoms to watch out for: solid lump, discharge from the nipple, inverted nipple and/or chest rash. Usually a combination of these symptoms are present. Risk factors are genetic, obesity, metabolic disorder, alcohol consumption, hormone imbalance, age (typically over 60) and/or exposure to radiation and environmental toxins.
Two Feathers please get the book by Susan Liberty Hall...the real solution
It works
Dr. Valter Longo out of Southern California University has seen great results using his fasting mimicing protocol in conjunction with traditional cancer treatments. I have been following his guidelines and have seen tremendous improvement in many layers of poor health. My heartfelt thoughts and prayers are with you always. I'm so thankful for your joyous spirit and the hope you've given me.
Dr. Dan, Thank God you're still standing strong! Stay positive and do your part in being healthy -- healthy foods, meditation, low stress levels, good sleep hygiene, walking in nature, water, green tea, black tea--minus any sweeteners. Healthy sunshine exposure. Consider watching TedTalk vodeo of Dr. William Li, who is a researcher and MD. He discusses cancer in detail and how to respond to it. Dr. Li has his own website. Super glad that you are entering immunotherapy trial.
We're just praying so hard for you. I've had cancer too. Bless your sweet heart. ❤
You are overdue for an update! Some of us out here in internet land are attached to you and rooting for you. I know it seems like a slender connection, but it's there.
Dr. Dan, you are the beacon of hope in the darkness of todays life style. You have given us reason to strive for. I pray for you. May God bless. 🤲
You are a rolemodel for everybody that is Voting through a rough time in life. You are one of the bravest people i have seen. I wish you all the best and hope that the immunotherapy is you‘re salvation. It was for my Grandma! The odds were against her but the immunotherapy turned it around completely. Now 10 Years later she is still cancer free and is living her best life.
Keep fighting, i wish you all the best! Greetings from Germany ❤️
Lots of prayers and love from Australia 🇦🇺
Dr. Dan, you look wonderful. I'm so glad you do feel good. We are praying and praying for you. We need you so very much.💙💙
I could sit and listen to your videos for hours, and i see I'm not the only one! Lots of prayers sent your way!
Dan, you have a great attitude, keep it up. Your journey is one we are all watching and praying for but remember, God will bring you through any trial but He will decide what is the best for you. God bless.
You are now on my prayer list. Have hope ❤
Dr Dan, you rock 🪨 🎸 you're going through your own health struggles but here you are helping other's I pray for you, I think of you along with other's who have cancer here on CZcams, you're amazing and yes renew everything in faith that it's going to happen that you'll be here ❤️ ❤

Dan, my name is Brendan. I lost my Dad, at the age of 18 to cancer; this year I lost my Mom to cancer. The way you are handling this is AMAZING! You will reach this goal. I am praying for you. I wish you were my Dr! My mom went back onto chemo and I think it took months off of her life; I wish we would have just kept on immunotherapy.
Your Oncologist was mine when I was back in Texas... I love her! So glad you are doing the Trial!!! What are you doing now instead of Keto? Thank you so much for the update. The proper mindset is so important... continue working on your mind, good job! God bless you; I am praying for you! Please keep us updated!

Praying for you...from this retired RN.
I pray that you had a good birthday and that you are doing well. I will Continue praying that immunotherapy will work for you. You have become such an inspiration to me to keep having hope since I lost my partner Tim this summer. Please understand that so many people are inspired by your kindness, strength and tenacity including me.
Hi Dr. Says, I paused this video and said a prayer for you that this new drug work for you, especially since you are pretty young and healthy overall. 😍😍😍😍😍😍🙏🙏🙏🙏
You’re such an inspiration Dan. I commend you for staying so positive about what you’re going through. My prayers are with you on this journey ❤🙏🏻…
I think it is your 55th Birthday 11-18. Best wishes from my family for your birthday. I hope the ultimate, as you say, "Bridge over a rough patch" enters your life with boundless restorative energy. I have a gut feeling it will. I hope your Holidays are wonderful. I just discovered your channel today. I really appreciate your attitude and perspective and obvious love for your fellow man. You were level headed and handing out good advice in the Spring of 2020.
From one November 18th Birthday Boy to another, Happy Birthday. I hope you have a wonderful day. I'm thinking about you.
Dude. We are listening!!!
Keep posting!!!
Prove these people wrong!!!
Praying for you, thanks you for sharing your vulnerability and the strength your demonstrating is beautiful.
I love your spirit! I have stage 4 colon cancer as well. My first chemo is tomorrow. We will have to keep fighting Dr Dan. Glad I see this video as I was wondering since the last video. Stay faithful and keep on fighting. You are in my prayers.
I had a lumpectomy, radiation, and now on Tamoxifen for breast cancer. I never even needed Tylenol after surgery. No pain whatsoever. Radiation was a piece of cake. Tamoxifen 5 months and doing great. I say this because my positive attitude helped tremendously. Your positivity and great energy will help to heal you fast. You will do well. You will kick cancer’s a$$! Best wishes to you!
Good luck, Man. You are helping all of us. We all face certain death at some point.
I do not know you but since I watched your first video I think about you almost daily and pray for you often. Praying for the future and that trials go well.
Dr, Dan as one November 18th birthday boy to another I'm sending you my very best wishes and hoping that both of us have many more November 18s to look forward to.

Hi Dan, your story resonates with me too. I was diagnosed in 2021 with bladder cancer and it profoundly changed the way I look at things. I too used to feel incomplete. However, now I appreciate the small things and I see the beauty in them, like the birds and animals just going about their lives. As you rightly pointed out, cancer strips away the superficial. I have 6 graduate and post-graduate qualifications and recently I looked at them and wondered why I thought they were so important. They aren't. I gathered them all up and threw them in a box. That isn't me anymore. There are so many other dimensions to my life that have changed. I'm simpler and softer, and I define success very differently. I feel emotion a lot easier which was never easy for me. As you pointed out, I now seek authenticity. I am currently NED and live from scan to scan. I wish you all the best.
God bless you. You have an ocean of prayers around you. Don't worry about the likes. 👍 The best thing that you are doing for yourself is doing what you love. Helping others w their physical pains is part of your soul and that's a beautiful thing. I'm so happy that you continue to have the energy to do the work you do, it's good therapy for you too!! ❤
