    I don’t know who that is, but I’m glad to hear it! Fuck cancer!

    Guess it’s time to check out a new YouTube channel…

    Oh wow I stopped following his channels a few years back so I had no idea. Good for him.

    I love the videos where he talks to a science person and then hang out with an animal

    This is always great news! Cancer treatment is getting better every year but there’s still a long way to go. Here’s hoping he never has to go through it again. 💪

    Damn I heard about 2 weeks ago go a month so this whole ordeal has gone rather quickly for me.

      Him and his brother have a series of YouTube videos that cover science news and information that eventually became a larger network that covers history and all forms of educational videos. It’s all great stuff and usually around 10mins each!

    Does that mean “cured” or NED (or whatever you want to call not going to die from this particular cancer) or does it mean he’s responding to treatment and the tumors are shrinking?

      Remission is kind of a misunderstood term, people think they means it’s cured or whatever, but you can ever be cured from cancer. It just means it’s not actively killing you right now and tumors are shrinking. Tumors could even go away, but you’re not cured and the cancer can always come back, it can also come back in other places. But don’t get me wrong here, remission is definitely a good thing and it’s worth celebrating 100%

        Somehow my brain turned remission into “The cancer was gone but it’s back now”. This is great then!

    Is he the guy who used to do prank videos and on street interviews?
