Sad to see one of my Jamaican brother work so hard to take care of his family and suffering with terminal cancer migrant worker need to get benefits like Canadian or American because they all work and pay taxes just like Canadian or American I was born and raised in Jamaica Manchester and now living in Canada and it hurts to see how they treat migrant workers I wish the government would do something for these migrant worker they need benefit. I'm here for over 5 years now and I still send money for my family back home so the government need to realize that they have a responsibility back home so they need benefits.

Hi Andrew Moir, Jamaican residing in London England. I know that his family needs help a man who dies leaving 6 children it’s very hard for the mother. I would like to help his wife to send the children to school. I know what it’s like to be hungry and have no food. So, please put a response on how I can contact you or Delroy’s wife. I am serious about this. This breaks my heart. I do not do social media, let me know and I will send my email address and correspond that way. Pam

For real. It is an intuitive thing that mothers have innately built in their DNA. Before my child was diagnosed with a heart condition that required surgery, I dreamt about it. My own mother knows when something is not wrong with one of us. Mothers KNOW! I pray this man's family finds peace. I assume by now he may have passed away. It is rough when you realise the only breadwinner in the family is gone.

[@michynature]

He didn't sacrifice for the country. It's a program to help foreigners. If there wasn't a program, canadians would be doing the job. Try telling an unemployed Canadian that their job is going to a temporary foreign worker. Not just on farms either.

[@wutangclams3203]

So sad. Such a strong man... I'd have a meltdown in that doctors office. Couple of important things to note: 10:13 - Cancer craves sugar and will deplete it from your body causing you to crave more. Don't give in to the urge. Sugar to cancer is like gasoline to fire. Tumors grow rapidly when fed sugar. 14:17 - Not the kindest act to smoke a cigarette next to someone who's terminally ill with cancer. Although, it does look like a joint, in which case I'd suggest passing it to Delroy for a little relief, but clearly there's a pack and cig on the table to his left. You know they're smoking tobacco in that house. He was probably covered in fertilizer at work, drinking lots of sugary juice, and sleeping in a small apartment full of tobacco smokers. Not the best environment for convalescence. Poor guy.. very very sad.

[@lezasalmon2712]

For those of you asking, Delroy died. Andrew Moir (filmmaker) said he decided NOT to set up a fund to help the wife financially after he died, even though it was clear they were living in poverty and many people wanted to donate money to the family. The wife was not working and it is assumed she had no other source of income that would help her family. I'm personally disgusted and feel the filmmaker did this because he continued filming the wife in a separate film about her coping after Delroy's death, and didn't want the family to be 'affected' by money coming in from a fund because then you wouldn't see the family struggle. All for the sake of making a supposedly better film. Andrew Moir says he will CONSIDER setting up a fund after the second film is released! The wife needed financial help immediately after Delroy died not years later, how selfish can you be???
