    I looked him up to see how he and his family are doing and I read some unfortunate news regarding John’s father, John Dilgen. In January of 2023 he was diagnosed with Myelodisplastic Syndrome, a type of cancer in which immature blood cells in the bone marrow do not develop into healthy blood cells. His daughter donated her bone marrow but his health deteriorated despite this and sadly he passed away on July 29.
    RIP John, you were a great father to your son.

    As I come back to re-watch this video, I simply cannot help but to start tearing up when his dad stated that "he doesn't look at having to provide around-the-clock care for John as a sacrifice...absolutely not" and you can see the OVERWHELMING sense of relief, closure and total absolution that washed over John for which the empath part of me tells me that John was harboring (and understandably so) some deep feelings of frustration, being a burden and/or feeling inept or even at times of hopelessness, fear of being judged or ridiculed by others just because of the appearance of his skin and presumed to be "contagious" or "not normal" albeit we know that's not true.

    I don't know where to reach him out to get to know how he's doing, but as far as I know recently some awesome therapies with autologous stem cell skin transplants were being used to cure some kids with EB, and I was amazed with the results. I know those still cost a ton, but I really hope John is doing fine and really wish for this therapy to be effective and efficient so it can be applied on a larger scale. He seems an awesome kid and I wish him and his family the best.
    EDIT: alright, I just found another video of him here on sbsk and he's actually doing the therapy I talked about. I'm so happy!

    Please do not forget that Jesus also has a purpose for your life! He loves you in so many ways and I think, as your family, he’s been for you in any highs and lows. 💓
