He passed as I was finishing up my cancer treatment today. He gave me courage. RIP good man.
SadowickProduction Keep fighting, I know it's hard. ❤️
Keep going 💜
Best to you and hoping for a healthy life from this point on!!!
In 2012 I was dx with stage 3c ovarian cancer(late stage)and I'm ok now but every year I have to get a blood test called a CA-125(short for cancer antigen)and the goal is essentially to keep it under 35. Awesome you finished up your chemo!
Stay strong! You got this!!❤️
I'm stopping smoking, something I never thought I could or would do, because of Dan. #restbrother
A Walk In The Mind of M. T. Wood I really hope you succeed, I know from experience how hard it can be but I haven’t smoked in 37 yrs now. Keep going👍
I wish you the best of luck my man!
Awesome! I really wish you the best and hope you get rid of it!
Power to you brother and r.i.p Dan the warrior Man .
Count me in too.
Quitting smoking
Wish me luck.
YT’s algorithm sucks. With that said, I was able to discover a great man and his great family. What an inspiration he was and they are.
Same. What a lovely man. What a wonderful family. Beautiful people. Xxx god bless
I'm not crying. You are.

Calm The Fucc Down YT Didnt Have To Show You The Vid At All And You Would Have Went On With Ur Life Not Knowing Anything About Dude
You said it right man! After 4 years I've got one of Dan's other video's recommended by CZcams, the one where he just came out of the hospital with bad news, which got to me pretty hard and now I ended up here...WHY? I didn't know the man at all. But just by watching 2 video's I got to know a very kind person who deserved to live life to the max! And now....after 4 years....RIP Dan† Bless you all!
Still affecting people in 2024! Prayers sent, thank you Dan! Rest easy brother. 🙏
Very true👍.xxxxx
Terrible, very open and honest .
So heartbreaking 💔
For everyone saying they don’t even seem upset it’s because you prepare for this throughout his journey and you grieve when it gets terminal
Also it literally happened that day. They are still processing
The brother on the far left looks completely distraught and heartbroken. Only people who can't see their oain are sociopathic idiots.
hes also not suffering anymore
It seems to be when someone has a terminal illness, much (not all of course) of the grieving happens when the person is still alive. And if someone is suffering badly near the end, it can even feel as a relief.
@@veritybritcliffe1391 That is THE most accurate comment. ive been through my dads death, i was 22, my dad died due to gastric cancer and the day of his death was so surreal and so unimaginable.. it almost felt like a relief really. then the next day came and all of the funerral arrangememts. It hits you like ton of bricks. Incredible hoplesness. Fuck cancer..
Lost for words quite honestly. Poor Becky looked beyond in shock the wee darling. So glad you have each other. What a beautiful family. Dan you will be missed but we will all meet up again. Xxxx
I feel the same - just couldn't have put it into those beautiful words. Thank you. X
I noticed that too. I really feel for all of them, but she looks destroyed. Poor girl. I wish I could hug her through the screen.
3 and a half years have passed since we lost this absolute gem of a gent, and his spirit still lives strong. An absolute legend taken to soon. Rest in Paradise Dan.
@@George_Clooneytuneswe will see him on the other side. When Jesus was dying on the cross he said to the theif that he would see him in paradise that same day. If laws of physics exist and have to in order for the universe to exist then the universe is infact governed by law designed by an intelligent being that has to be above or outside of it in order to architect it. Thats not something that happens because of random happenstance. A law of physics is that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Us as mortal humans didnt invent this law. Isaac newton discovered it because he figured out god was real. Thats how we know space is infinate because the universe is governed by law from a way higher entitiy who was in jesus christ. If an infinite nothing exists the equal and opposite would automatically have to happen at the same time so the moment infinity was created the big bang started because finite cant exist unless it has infinite to exist within because of the law oh physics it becomes a sybiotoc existence governed by law for the universe to even be able to exist at all. the universe is governed by laws designed by a higher power all creator who was and was in jesus christ like white on rice or yellow in gold. Or flavor to bbq. Sustinance to our mortal souls to give us hope because this mortal world is not meant to be easy you dont become strong by having life easy. So if laws of physics proving the universe is governed by laws which can only come from a source of extreme intelligence that is a real 1 only god that means there is life after death. Death seems so permanent but its because we look at the world scientifically and we say we do not know how to come back from the dead. We dont, but Jesus does. So if he is the way we actually do know how. The guy is saving us all he came from nazereth walked around gaillilee he lived in capurnom. He was telling the jews to stop worshipping judaism and to only follow hik instead. trying to get them to follow him the romans and jews didnt like that. King herod of babylon tried to take him out as a baby and babylon fell and rome fell after they ordered his crucifiction because the jews kepy yellin for them to execute him and stuff. They say him as like a subverter a nobody criminal. He wasnt.
He said to the theif he would see him in paradise the same day. Everyone talks about when jesus turned water into wine but they dont really talk about when they fed him soured wine on the cross as his last drink and when the roman guard stabbed him to make sure he was dead water came out. Jesus put a mans cut off ear back on. You die very sick in this mortal world but the day you die can be the day you enter into the eternity because Jesus Christ is the only true doorway you will have to go through him or go to hell eventually every knee will bow so get right now!!! Jesus wasnt a catholic or a jew he was the eternal creator of the universe. If the universe is governed by laws that arent made by mortal humans they have to be made by imortal ones. The invisible all knowing eternal part of god needs a physical part because every action required an equal but opposite reaction. Its 1 god jesus is the right hand of the 1 god. That 1 god didnt do all this just for it to amount to nothing in the end. If we have a natural world we are living in that means there is an equal but opposite reaction that has to happen meaning we know there has to be an unnatural world we cannot live in. Or as I refer to it as 4th dimential demonic entities, there is a battle between good and evil happening and thats what god put us here for. Some of us are fighting cancer some of is are fighting starvation some are fighting mental health some are fighting disabilities. We will all have to content and overcome the permanency of death by coming back from the dead but the only way to do it is to cross from the mortal realm we live in where the big bang happened into the immortal realm we know scientifically has to exist because equal bit opposite reactions. You cant have a mortal realm without an importal one that is directly intentionally symbiotic in their existance. You cant have light without dark. You cant have good without evil you cant have fast without slow left without right up without down. Happy without sad. You cant have an eternal life until youve had a short life that isnt eternal. Thats why jesus tells is to not stacl treasure here on eaeth where theif steal and moth corrupt but to stack treasure in heaven where there isnt corruption. So god limits how long our lives will last here becauss the faite of the eternal universe depends on us making it and crossing over from mortal to immortal via the only doorway that is jesis christ from 2024 years ago. Back in the beggining people like noah lived 900 years but today people are lucky to break 60 but because of more modern times we can get more people into their 70s 80s even 90s and some people few but some will live to 100 some documented to 110 120 sometimes in very very rare cases out of the billions of people a couple might arguably survive to 130-140 but at that point it gets harder to prove they could be 110 saying theyre 140. Some people are gone at 30 from terminal cancer or car accidents. Rest assured god is good. Do not be so sure you cannot ever see your loved ones again. Maybe not in this mortal non eternal life that is scientifically required to have to happen before you can have an immortal one. The death is a requirement its as nessessary as birth. The death is actually only permanent to the living on earth. To the one that died its as permanent as a nap. You go to sleep instantly wake up in the final judgement. It has to happen or the eternal life cant because the wages of sins is death so we all have a time to die but then judgement so its right back to living again. It has to happen. We see death as this terrible thing but it is a key marking point the end of mortal life but the beggining of immortal. So dont go to hell immortally you want to get into heaven immortally. You got 2 choices dont go trying to get into hell when you can get into heaven jesus is the only doorway. The one they crucified and he came back from the dead that the bible was assembled in order to document how he came how he lived how he went and whats happening concerning such matters. If there can be mortal humans that can die there mist be an equal but opposite chance for there to he immortal humans that cannot.
What a family , how they held it together filming this tribute so soon after their loss is unbelievable.
When your relative has a terminal condition, it's much easier to process their death than when it's sudden. You've been picturing and expecting that day for years, and you've been grieving them for years.
@@anyaw340 that's exactly it. Remember when he and his mom learned he wouldn't make it? They were much more saddened than the day he gone itself
It’s Becuase they were expecting it, also sometimes it takes a while for the real emotions to kick in.
@@anyaw340 Of course it isn't comparable to losing a son, brother, or husband, but as I felt my dog's heartbeat turn to a murmur and stop I felt an overwhelming sense of relief besides grief because I knew his suffering was over.
I'm crying. Just unbelievable. No other words.
Me too
Sobbing here
Also. We knew this time would arrive for him. Hoped, wished and prayed for more time for Dan.
His family are so strong in this video. Bless them all. When their hearts are breaking ❤️
Same here.💪💜dan u are like a little bro that lived in a differnt country. With caring word's and vloging memories. 😢
Fluxedo - ... You’re response it pitiful. Knock it off.
The giraffe should be named "Beacon" - a source of light or inspiration, someone or something that guides or gives hope to others. Because that is what Dan is.
The Curious Sapien yes! I agree ☝️ what a wonderful name!!
BACON
I like it !!!
Fab suggestion @the curious sapien
That is amazing
Dan crossed my mind tonight. I remember being crushed by how quickly his health deteriorated at the end. I hope he knows how many lives he touched. Gone too soon, but never forgotten.
I was sad to hear Becca already remarried. Of course life goes on, but I am quite upset there were no more follow ups. Feels like he's been erased from the history books. He deserved better.
@@George_Clooneytunes Grief has no time limit. They both knew he was going to die when they got married. There’s a really good chance that they discussed this beforehand.
@@George_Clooneytunes I'm 100% sure they discussed it beforehand.
I never saw his videos when he was alive... I only saw them today... Im so sorry for your loss... This has brought me to tears and I send you all my condolences
It's so clear to me where Dan got his strength from. You're an incredible family and Dan's legacy will live on. God bless you all. Peace and love xo
I second that they are a lovely family!
You put the words right into my mouth... ❤️
i'm crying. i didn't know him in person, but he's affected my life. i'll never forget Dan.
I Feel Like Ive Lost My Father.
I don’t cry often, this hit me differently
Same :( omg heartbreaking
Same...
I'm sorry for your loss = l only seen a few videos of Dan's and he was sick = IT was very hard to watch this illness take his young life = But I loved the way he handled it = IT is surely the tuffist test in one's life = Your family is Blessed to have great memories of Dan's life = And is a wonderful inspiration for others = God Bless you for sharing this with others and myself = Heart felt love to all of You...
I didn’t even know who he was 30 seconds ago but I’m already crying. RIP
An update i dreaded seeing, I’m heartbroken. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. A remarkable man. A remarkable life.
I remember the first video I seen from dans channel, the cancer has won video 5 months ago. In the video he explains how he was told to enjoy the next 2 weeks because of how fast he was declining, and look how far he come. It was only a week ago he was making videos as normal (although in pain) and was continuing to share his story. In that time he has gotten married and left a huge legacy. He made the most out of how long he had left and made it so far, I hope you have found peace now. Rest in peace xx
Same here, it was the "GAME OVER" video that I first saw him. Watched his every update and now he can be free of pain.
Dan, I can't believe it's been 5 years today since you passed. You touched so many lives and still do. I'm sure you're proud of Becca. She's a wonderful young woman who is coming into her own.
I don’t know why this has popped up in my feed years later but I am so sorry for your family’s lost. It’s apparent he lived his best life until he had to stop. I hope everyone is at peace now. Prayers for all of you!
Facts I’m not sure why I got recommended this but rip. Fuck cancer.
Same I just watched the video of him with the bad news then the video in hospice. Man how heartbreaking and cruel cancer is
Did you all know someone who died recently?
@@AnnoDominiMCMXCV yes.. my little brother died last september by cancer 😔 this was hard to watch.
Thank you so much for keeping us informed at this terrible time. We are sad but realise our grief is nothing to yours. Please do keep in touch if it helps you to do this; all Dan's family have become dear to us.
I am diagnosed with terminal cancer, and only found this channel yesterday. Watching Dan's videos has given me courage but has also helped me come to terms with my situation. My heart goes out to you, his lovely family.
peerkbh .. Hey man, just wanted to say stay strong brother. I know im just a random guy but i hope that my comment gives you courage and strength. Keep your family, friends and loved ones close and create a legacy that will last forever
Stay strong man. U can do it
Don't give in. Don't give up.
TheHanStudios it’s terrible because this comment section gets you so emotional. I see your comment from a day ago and we’re all unaware if peerkbh is still alive to this day.
I hope you’re doing fine, stay strong, you are loved.
His brother looks just like him
I know I thought it’s him
@@nooraqueen2716 no he doesn’t
@@XxS1l3nTxa1Mx she said *I thought* not I think u don't understand?
@@XxS1l3nTxa1Mx yes he does look like his brother !!!!!!
@@nooraqueen2716 they look like twins. So sad.
I just found this channel today and I can’t believe he’s gone. A beautiful soul. Rest In Peace.
Same here😭😭😭🤧🤧🤧
I Did 10 minutes and now im scrowling to all his comment sections on all his videos
same
This is heart breaking...but I think the giraffes name should be "ta ta" in the words of Dan
Yes
Talia K YES!!
Ta ta those were one of his last words with "See ya later" ....very inspirational Dan was to the world!
Yes! 🙂❤
Talia K i love you
I love this family. Instead of sitting there crying, they are thanking us and celebrating his life. He lived life the way you should live it. You never know how lucky you are until you hit rock bottom. Rest in peace.
But to celebrate his life is a great outlook and his life should be celebrated.
No parent should have to bury a child.
Rest in peace...
Dan will always help me with my depression and anxiety. He gives me strength when I’m feeling down.
I dreaded the day to viewing this video but I know that Dan is no longer suffering. Dan won simply because he lived his life, his way. He faced each day with courage, humor, strength, positivity and a zest for life, which has shown thousands of others that anything is possible...
To Dan's family and friends, I am sending my heartfelt sympathy to each of you. May God carry you in the days, months and years that follow. And may the memories you have with Dan, aid in comforting you throughout this difficult journey ...
Peace & strength to you all xxx
Amazing
I never suspected I would one day have tears in my eyes (and actually more than that) because of a stranger from the internet. What an incredible man that I ended up somehow feeling so connected with. Speechless and saddened
@@fisknedidilleren8503 what?
Me too.... I'm so sad
I just found this channel and Dan's story. What a remarkable, kind, handsome, intelligent, and compassionate man. Dan and the whole Thomas family, thank you for sharing your story. RIP Dan from Phoenix, Arizona, USA.
May God bless Dan's soul and all of you.
Omg! Dreaded this video but knew it was coming. He was so honorable and honest and open. Bless you and continue with his memory. Amen!
Damn Mann , he's not suffering anymore and he truly fought tooth and nail till the very end. The world can use more people like Dan ...rest in power sir
@Hey Big Rob Fitness Watch my fuarkin video just another form of Rest In Peace, they may be gone physically but the effect/impact they left behind can still hold power and change lives
Yeah he was a decent chap and be missed.
Very well.said Kenny 92!
Well said indeed.
@@capturedbyken2936 I've never heard it said that way but it's beautiful!
Dan is giving me strength to fight my own battle against cancer and terminal autoimmune disease. #dontgiveindontgiveup love you guys, you have my condolences and prayers in this difficult time. He was such a character and seemed like such a good hearted loving dude. Xoxo 💖💖💖
HOW ARE YOU DOING MY FRIEND
It's been 5 years and I am still thinking about Dan, much much love and support for the family.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I can't believe he's no longer with us, but I'm glad he's no longer in pain.
STILL WATCHING DANIEL xxx
My condolences ♡
"Ta ta ,bye bye"
R.I.P
I’m watching this in 2020. Such a tragedy for Dan and his family. I especially feel for his parents. I can’t imagine the devastation of losing a child.
RIP
Can’t believe I’ve only just seen this I feel broken as some of my family have unfortunately passed away from cancer and it affects millions Rip to a genuine and nice guy fly high with the angels rest in piece brother ❤️💫😇
This is the great mystery of life, that a beautiful, exuberant consciousness full of life and hope can end and not knowing where it goes. How can that be?
Your absolutely right, that's the hardest part I think when you lose someone, how can all of that mind and consciousness just cease to be, when their mind is still so vital, but the body is ravaged by cancer, all of their thoughts and knowledge just dissapears, I know that's why so many people want to do fund raising and things for charity in the name of the one they've lost, it keeps their memory and a spark of them alive for a little bit longer, you just don't want them to dissapear without a trace...
🦒🦒🦒 "Boosh"🦒🦒🦒
I loved hearing Dan say "boosh" when he was excited. I can still hear his voice in my head as I say it now. To represent Dan's awesomeness and ongoing enthusiasm I am suggesting it for the giraffe, and hopefully when you look at the giraffe you'll continue to hear his voice in its excitement too
Shannon Gantley Yes, Boosh is the perfect name for the giraffe!!!
YES!! brilliant name for the giraffe! 👍👍👍💖🦒
Great suggestion!
This brought me tears , my mom lost her fight against cancer last year. RIP , blessings to all , LETS NOT FORGET our true journey begins in Heaven.
Look man I know that you’re trying to be hopeful and all, but accept it. When we die, we end up in the same state as before we were born. Death renders your journey as finished.
I love how the cat approached the giraffe right when they talked about it
I'm sure Dan's energy is always present around people he loved....
Im a grown man. Cant remember the last time I cried but I cried like a baby for Dan today. I guess I knew it was coming but didn't think it would come this fast. God Bless RIP.
I cried my eyes out .. when I remembered his wounds and lumps gosh I can't even imagine how much it must have hurt
@@JK-sy3tt you cry when you love someone. You cry because life is unfair .you cry when someone that you know dies way too soon .you cry when people suffer .end .of .the. story .
@@user-nq6mf2gu7z let me add and say you cry cause you have feelings, you cry cause you CARE...Thats fine if thats how YOU @ JK deal with tough times...but please dont expect others to do the same
J K crying is a necessary step in the grieving process. It’s natural. His comment wasn’t directed at the other millions of people who die... its to express their grief towards the individual at hand. I’m emotionally strong as an individual but I’m not so naive as to believe crying is a sign of weakness. You should re-invent yourself friend. Good luck to you.
@@pedacito2814 so true ! ♡
My heart hurts for someone i have never met. That shows how much he meant to total strangers. My condolences to all of you.
catmama54 For me too, i just wan't say the same but I'm crying😟
We never met him but we all just lost a friend. i'm gonna miss his videos and updates so much.
Thankyou for saying you didn't know him but it hurts your heart rather than taking some grief from his true friends and family xx
I agree
To the family of Daniel Thomas: I received the hoodie that I purchased months ago when Daniel was strong. I wanted to cry when I opened the package. Thanks so much for sending it. I will forever have Daniel in my heart. What a wonderful person he was. All the best to you.
You all are an amazing family for posting this after he passed. I pray you all are doing okay and God Bless!
Name suggestion for the giraffe, “Heaven”. With it’s long neck reaching for heaven, it’s body keeps it grounded. Dan kept his head up for all of us, while his body tried to keep him down. He persevered. Much love and thanks to Dan and family for documenting and sharing with us all. God Bless
Kel Reising I LOVE this so much. What a beautiful sentiment.
Beautiful name !!
That's a great name.
Kel Reising perfect! I love that! 💕
how about mini p
The last time you spoke to us I knew it would be the last time. I didn’t know you Dan but I just knew you would be one person I would enjoy. I am 81 and each night looked forward to seeing you. Your family shows where you get your crazy sense of humor and love of life. So many lives have changed because of you. Hope you knew that and felt the pride! I will miss seeing you Tom but your place in my heart will remain.......TaTa......bye bye!
Sondra Cumberland ❤
What a lovely message you left about Dan.....😊❤
Tom’s name was Dan. Daniel Thomas.
Dan..not tom
I can't believe it's been 4 years today. Miss you, Dan!
Dans Schicksal berührt mich sehr. Vor kurzem hat CZcams mir ein Video von ihm vorgeschlagen und ich hab mir seitdem einige angeschaut. Manche immer wieder.
Ich wurde mit 28 Jahren selbst schwer unheilbar krank. Seitdem schaue ich meinem Körper dabei zu wie er immer mehr seinen Dienst einstellt. Es ist ein schleichender Prozess. Mittlerweile kann ich nicht mehr laufen. Mir fehlt die Kraft meine Arme und Hände ohne Schmerzen zu nutzen. Ich kann keine Nacht mehr durch schlafen weil mein Körper wenn ich liege unkontrolliert zuckt.....und dann kam der Gebärmutterhalskrebs.
Mein Leben war nie einfach, Mit 9 Jahren war meine Kindheit schlagartig vorbei. Da hieß es erwachsen sein.
Ein jahrelanges Martyrium ging los. Diese Erlebnisse haben mir nicht nur meine Kindheit genommen. Diese haben mir das recht als Frau selbstbestimmt zu leben genommen. Seither lebe ich in der Gegenwart aber auch in der Vergangenheit. Die Zeiten waren bitter aber mit ca 27 Jahren schien es bergauf zu gehen..... bis ich die Diagnose, unheilbar krank bekam und mir dieser 3. Schub auch noch meine physische Gesundheit nahm. Ein Jahr später dann Diabetes und das Jahr darauf Gebärmutterhalskrebs. Manchmal frage ich mich ob der ,,liebe Gott oder wer auch immer " nen schlechten Tag hatte als er mich geschaffen hat?!
Auf was ich aber eigentlich hinaus wollte ist, das mich auch Ihr Schicksal sehr bewegt. Heute bin ich auf den Tag genau 33 Jahre alt und die letzten Jahren haben mir ganz deutlich gezeigt wie wichtig Familie ist für einen kranken Menschen. Wenn man sehr krank ist und weiß man wird nie wieder gesund werden ist der Rückhalt von der Familie und Freunden eins der wichtigsten Dingen. Wenn ich dran denke was meine Eltern alles mit mir mitmachen mussten....ich bin sehr dankbar dafür! Deshalb haben auch Sie den größten Respekt von mir!
Dan ist bewundernswert wie stark er sein Schicksal meisterte und gleichzeitig Menschen auf der ganzen Welt Mut machte zu kämpfen und zum Arzt zu gehen. Er hat deutlich klar gemacht wie wichtig es ist gesund zu sein bzw sich regelmäßig durch checken zu lassen.
Aus eigener Erfahrung kann ich sagen nie die Hoffnung und die Kraft verlieren. Auch wenn es oft verdammt hart ist. Tränen dürfen sein und sind wichtig. Aber immer wieder versuchen aufzustehen.Es lohnt sich immer für das Leben zu kämpfen.
Oft merkt man erst recht spät das es Dinge zu schätzen gibt. Wenige Menschen denken so jung schon an diese Dinge. Deshalb nie vergessen!
Mir tut Ihr Verlust von Herzen leid und ich wünsche Ihnen allen weiterhin viel Kraft und alles Gute.
Ihr Dan war ein großer Kämpfer und für die Welt der größte Held!
Ich hoffe es geht dir gut wo immer du jetzt gerade bist......RIP
I can't believe that this day arrived. I am truly heartbroken. May he rest in peace. A beautiful soul your Dan, so loved by many.
Dan, your wings were ready but our hearts were not xx
Fuckin brutal. Algorithm sent me his video being diagnosed with terminal cancer. Stay strong, guys. ❤️
Thomas. And Family even though you have passed away. I have terminal Cancer at 28 and a few months left. I want it to end aswel. Congratulations Thomas for a massive battle and staying so positive for your loved ones and spending the rest of your time enjoying yourself. Look after Poppy the beautiful Persian Kitten. If I wasn’t sick I’d love one right now. Bless to all of you. ✝️. Thomas I will see you soon. Amen
God bless you and give you peace. 🌹
I have checked this site 3 times a day to hear a update on Dan. I am crying my eyes out. Your husband, son and brother was one amazing young man and you are one amazing family. Thank you for sharing this video, knowing he is no longer in pain and suffering gives me some peace.
Same here
I found Dan on CZcams just weeks after my 26 yr old son died from cancer this past December. My family couldn't understand why. I explained that because my son was so private with his feelings about his terminal illness and facing death, I found comfort in hearing Dan's thoughts. He somehow gave me answers to questions I didn't ask my son out of respect for his choice not to talk about it. Dan's zest for life was inspiring for me during my own grieving process. My deepest, heartfelt condolences go out to Dan's mum, dad, brothers, wife, friends and extended family. Now is the really hard part - learning to live without part of your heart. Much luv from me to y'all.xo 💕
So sorry to hear about your loss. How kind of you to share your story and your personal gain from Dan's journey. Wishing you all the best and lots of strength. Love and light from a stranger xx
Much love mate
I’m sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine how horrendous that must have been for you.
Thank you for sharing this. May your son find Dan somewhere in heaven xxx
My heart goes out to you with prayers for you and your son!
Truly inspirational, really put things into perspective. I really hope his family and friends are all healthy and well.
I only found Dan the other day - I know he passed 5 years ago and here we are still keeping him alive on here - love and sorrys from Debra in north wales 🏴 xx
I love the name Tata for the giraffe! It is much better than the name PeeWee I thought about.
I thought ta ta would also be a good name.
Yeah, I agree.
Yes!!!!! Love it!!
My deepest condolences to the family.
Omg..heartbreaking..RIP my friend!🙏🙏🙏
Sending love to you all. I think of Dan regularly. He put things into perspective for me and stopped me from pitying myself. Sleep tight Dan 💖
i don’t think I’ve ever cried at a CZcams video but i am genuinely covered in tears. Rest easy Dan, love to all the family
I am a mother whose adult children has died. This is a event for which one would think there are no words; your family has found words. I thank you from the very bottom of my heart for the lesson you have taught.
God has worked in a mysterious way in that which you have given me..
God bless you x
Sorry for the loss of your son/daughter. God bless you.
When Dans brother said "Take care ta ta bye bye" It was like he said it sent me shivers and tears x
Damn, this was soul-wrenching. My heart goes out to this wonderful family, and especially Dan. All these years on.
Learning of Dan's story today and I wish I would have seen it sooner. I lost my father in 2010 to terminal cancer when I was 16 and witnessed the battle he had. Dan's soul will leave an impact forever and I can't help but feel moved after experiencing his story. With love.
Rest in peace Daniel. To the Thomas family, I do not know how you found the strength to put this out there. Thank goodness he is not in pain any more, he looked so tired in the last week. I, too, have sarcomatoid carcinoma and his videos showed a joy for life that was simply incredible. You must be very proud of all he achieved. Bless you all.
May you stay strong. Sending my love to you xxx
sarah2572 I'm so sorry that you have to go through this, I have no words of comfort I'm afraid. I hope you survive and beat cancer's butt. I wish you all the best and all the strength and positivity in the world! Take care darling. ❤ ta ta, buh bye ❤❤
Sending you love as well!¡
Keep fighting, Love. I'm glad you found comfort in Dan's videos. I'm sorry you have been dealt these cards. Hugs ❤
Hours after your son, brother, husband passed on and you’re making an update. God bless you. I am blown away by the strength and courage by you and dan. God bless you Dan, sleep well friend.
I've just found this videos on my recommended section... God it's a really sad history. Looking back at just 2 or 3 videos ago he was telling us that he went to the hospital again... And just a few days later he died... He went through a long suffering but at the end he could find rest. Without pain... Has been 2 years since he passed away. My most sincerely condolences from Mexico...
Me too
Rest in Peace Dan,
"Ta ta ,bye bye"
Its so hard to not cry
Love Dan not long off a year still loved and missed xxxxx

What a shame he was a great man and just wanted people to crack a smile, only the good die young, Rest In Peace Dan.
RIP mate. you taught us all to never take life for granted and to never give up and never give in. I'll think about you for a long time to come. Take care, tata, byebye Dan.
I just knew, and my heart dropped. Just can't stop crying. You will be missed. And all my love to your family. Will continue to watch... don't give in don't give up...❤❤❤
I recognize in this video the sadness combined with a great sense of relief. I reminds me of when my mother passed away from cancer and her last few weeks were brutal and, like Dan, there was no chance of recovery. After seeing the suffering day after day, there was a certain relief that it was over. Of course, that is combined with a bitter reality that that person is physically gone from your life. IMO, Dan did not LOSE his battle, because he retained his spirit to end. Cancer could not take that. It was the same with my mom and dad and many others reading this. Have a great day and enjoy your life.
He passed on my 23rd birthday. I had spent that day at home, drinking and feeling sorry for myself. Only now do I realized what an absolute waste of a day that was. If I could I would've given it to Daniel and let him have a day free of pain to enjoy before his journey's end. I know it's never easy losing someone that you love, a son, a father, a husband, a brother, a genuinely kindred soul and kind hearted person. I've lost my fair share over the years and I will say the pain doesn't exactly go away, but it does dimmer. The pain won't hurt quite as bad over time. You'll still see, hear, and smell things that'll instantly put Daniel into your mind as if you just saw him. At first it'll be a little jarring but sooner than later you'll appreciate having that strong connection that even death cannot touch. If you're able to count yourselves lucky for having known him, and if you're able to apply what he stood for into your lives... for a moment it's almost as if he's still here, living through your memories of him and your perseverance to overcome this grief and sorrow.
I hope everyone is well. I'd like to thank you for leaving Daniel's channel up and intact, for making contributions to it as well. I think he would've liked that, very much. I also hope my words can offer some small solace to you. If not, I understand. Regardless, I wish each of you the absolute best in this life because it's what Daniel would've wanted for you.
RIP Daniel, no more pain now. Thank you for taking us on your amazing journey & fight. What a beautiful family you have, will be thinking of you all. Lots of love from Australia, see you later...ta ta....bye bye 👋❤️
The giraffe's name is WARRIOR, just like Dan.
Duda Patrícios great suggestion, I hope they see this comment.
Yes!!
Love it!
Yes!!
Yes great name
I lost my older brother to cancer when he was 14. This was years ago but I still miss him. However even though he’s not physically here I learned so much from him even afterwards! I learned not to fear death but also to value your own life and all the people in it!
I only found out about Dan’s Channel today but it really touched a nerve! He’s still helping people until this day!
I wish all the best for the family and everyone reading this!
My deepest condolences to the whole family. What a special person he was. You and we were lucky to have shared life with him .May his soul rest in peace.
I never commented because my spoken english is not very good, but Dan has inspired me to be more active and not letting the bad things let me down. He has teached me to enjoy each day, because you never know if it's going to be your last. Rest in Peace Dan, you made a big positive impact in the world, and you are loved by thousands of people
fisk ned i dilleren You think you are cute, when in actuality, you are an evil, sick soul...
Thank you for your consideration to all of us for posting this. You had an extraordinarily brave son, brother and husband
First seeing this channel..god rest his soul in peace.... im shoked his mother come out just 3 hours after he died ..can believe this
What an inspiring and strong family. I only found your channel today but I wished to pass on my condolences for your loss but also congratulations for raising such an inspiring and strong son.
Dont forget there are others out there going through the same fight Dan went through that could use our energy and support. Dont let this end here
Get his name right will u?
I can see where Dan got his incredible bravery from. What an amazing bunch of folk you are.
I watched this video with tears in my eyes,but when you quoted Dan at the end, I cried for a man I didn't know,a man who touched my heart,a man who fought so hard to live.
Thank you for this video and thank you to Dan for inspiring so many.
Ta ta buddy.
Rest in peace xxxx🌹
cat lady53 well said
Can you please talk about his last few days? That would help people a lot.
😪
Missed loved by me and the world that followed him on his jornery
Miss you Dan still xxx
Rest in peace Dan. I hope you are in a better place free from any suffering. Thank you for sharing your life with everyone. From the videos I’ve seen you seemed like a caring, intelligent, and courageous man.
I just can't believe this, I didn't even know dan this just popped up in my recommended and its making me think of the time I barely got away and avoided cancer. this is making me cry and I hope his family is doing okay! and if anyone is going through anything similar I wish you the best, life is precious so spread love and appreciate it.
Absolutely heartbroken. Was only few weeks ago we came from a "high" after getting told he might have up to 9 more months. This is the nature of cancer... we need to cure this horrible disease... that should be Dan's legacy!
James Hood sadly there is a cure but the government makes a profit from it...Cancer is a business..that’s just what these corrupt bastards do.
DeoR F That's probably where Dan got his strength from
Andy Wasson Please take your crazy conspiracy theories elsewhere. This is not the time or place. His family are reading these comments please be respectful.
Dr. Frost Hi, yes his mum is an active member of the Christian church- this has been stated in a number of videos. As his family respected his mothers beliefs- so we should too during this difficult time.
Ruby Jean I apologize and I meant no disrespect..I just believe there has gotta be a cure..if there is that is so messed up but if there isn’t we can only hope it’s found soon. My uncle died from cancer I know how they feel I’m not just some random. Once again I meant no disrespect.
We love you Becky
What a beautiful family. You are so strong and such good people. Peace, love, and blessings from Pennsylvania, USA.
Sometimes there are no words for the rush of emotions and instant connection with these peoples pain and grief this is so sad I just could imagine
I never thought that I would be so moved by, actually, a total stranger. I first saw Dan on youtube in his ''Cancer has won it's game over'' video, watched it and the accompanying feeling did not get away from me. Checked out his channel, got hooked to it, felt emotionally connected to him, the family and the community. Seeing decline, knowing that the moment was coming, the moment I dreaded and didn't want to come. But man, that last week went fast. I've even been thinking about it during college lectures: ''I have a bad feeling''.
But now, he is at rest. Suffering is over. May the Holy Father have a special place for Dan in Heaven, he absolutely totally deserves it. He did so much more than anyone could do. He inspired so many and brought so many together.
I will pray for you, that you will give everthing a place and I will pray for Dan, may he be watching from Heaven and see the result of what he inspired so many to do.
Dennis de Heus that's the first one I saw, he'll be missed
