Back at work, back in the gym & next surgery!

[@StinglikeaBea]

I can't believe your gone. 😢 RIP Dr Dan. ❤

[@deannsmith8903]

I can’t believe he’s gone 😢

[@RoyalPurpleStar]

Yeah, but the 3-year survival rate for stage 4 colon cancer is extremely low, and the 5-year survival is almost zero. But still hard to believe when you care about someone. 😢

[@gwendolynforest9610]

I see your videos coming up as i stroll, I can't believe you are gone, R.I.P.

[@JillDuffield-v2h]

Your positivity through your journey was mind blowing and much to be admired! We miss you!

[@tcusack2106]

I just watched John video of Dr. Dan near the end. How could this happen to this man? I am a 2-time cancer survivor. Stage 4.

[@besthandle2023]

It is wonderful you are doing so well. How did you do it? Yes, so sad about Dr. Dan. 😢

[@grietdierick4986]

You are the most positive person I know. So inspiring. Take care 🌼

[@joancalamezzo3209]

Proud of you dude! I’m heading into my one year scan (I’ve had 2 after treatment scans) so far for stage 3 colon cancer, both were NED. Best thing I ever did was decide at the very beginning to look at cancer logically rather than emotionally…was a game changer. You are inspiring a lot of people by sharing your story & progress etc. and that is priceless!

[@DrDanSays]

Joan -- that is INCREDIBLE, OMGGG!!! Those 3 little letter...NED. They mean a lot, don't they. I'm going to get an NED tattoo as soon as I'm there. Way to go beating your challenge, and I agree -- it's hard not to get emotional (and I totally have, btw), but hitting it head-on with a "well, let's do what has to be done" attitude like you're doing, helps me stay focused as well. Thank you for sharing!

[@kimberlygerman3010]

Continuing to kick some cancer ass! Love it! You’ve been on my mind a lot the last few days, so I was so happy to see this update before bed. Hugs and talk to you soon!

[@DrDanSays]

Hell yes, Kimberly!! Thank you for being in my corner, you're awesome. Sending lots of love your way!!

[@joanbeach644]

Miss you Dr Dan. Rest in Peace. 🐼🐼🐼

[@tomweger5823]

Dr. Dan, Thank you for sharing your story. I enjoy following your progress and appreciate your straight forward positive attitude. I am on a similar journey. Diagnosed in 3/2017 Stage 3 CRC. Same therapy regime with APR and Perm Colostomy. Reoccurrence in 2019 with 3 lymph nodes in left groin and a right lung nodule. Currently receiving FAM-Trastuzumab Deruxtecan-Nxki 100 every 21 days. I am doing very well and responding to treatment. One thing you might look into is a gene mutation call Her2. I have it and that explains the reoccurrence. Might be worth having your medical team rule this out for you as Her2 does not respond well to traditional chemo. I wish you all the best and look forward to hearing of your FULL recovery.

[@rhondawhatley1591]

So glad you are doing great. Sending prayers n love. God bless

[@rhondawhatley1591]

Very happy that you are doing amazing. Still sending prayers and love from Georgia

[@sallysmith8081]

Wonderful update news! You're "taking care of business," that's for sure!

[@tiggasmum]

You always sound so positive, I think this is helping you heal :) things seem to be going really well, I am so pleased:)

[@babeosaurus]

Thank you for the update. Happy to hear that you're doing so well!

[@DrDanSays]

Thank you so much!! It's good to be here :)

[@lizgutierrez6666]

Thank you for the update. I'm very glad to hear that you are doing so well and that your family has been down to help/support you thru the surgery and recovery. Continued prayers as you continue this battle.

[@lifeonmyown6397]

You’re just incredible. Positive attitude will take you far. You can beat this without a doubt. -Kim🙋🏻‍♀️

[@DrDanSays]

Thanks, Kim! Your confidence makes me confident :)

[@evaneugenescott]

Dr Dan, I am about to have liver resection surgery (though I am fortunate to not have cancer, just a very large benign growth) and was interested to hear what exercises you did during your recovery and how long until you could do intense exercise.

[@gerriwalsh9846]

Good to see you back on KZbin and looking so healthy :)

[@DrDanSays]

Thank you so much, Gerri!! :)

[@lilianadegregori228]

Miss you so much❤

[@tommy7fun]

The world lost a great man. I'm sad.

[@natethegreat3602]

Rip Dan..... 2 years from this video you lost your fight but it was a hell of a fight. I wish you would have gone to better doctors because in my opinion they failed you. You weren't given the best trials the cancers grew back and it was a losing battle.....

[@Vestu]

I'm also thinking that, the tumors were not growing for a long while, then he changed regimen and all went to hell pretty quickly.

[@VaShthestampede2]

I don't know why they didn't use the HIPEC surgery for him. Should be pretty standard.

[@aminfarshidi]

Wow! Nice job Doc. You are back in the gym so quick. So, happy for you. Though I am now also embarrassed I am not hitting the gym frequently by making random excuses, LOL.

[@DrDanSays]

Thanks, Amin!! And hey, even a little exercise is way better than none. Don't make it too hard on yourself, start super easy :)

[@aminfarshidi]

@@DrDanSays Totally agreed. Will hit the gym again.

[@Vestu]

Damn cancer. This fit man is now dead. By that same cancer. I just ended an 5.5-month chemo regimen myself and it's no joke. My case was stage 1 but nothing's 100% sure with cancer.

[@susanehlava3808]

Hope that you are ok

Update please?

[@yoohoo8222]

Anyone heard anything on Dr. Dan? It’s been 3 months… hope all is well.

[@andrewwest5344]

Very concerning

[@rshore6138]

I was wondering the same thing. I pray he is doing good.

[@KristyHarris]

He's tweeted a few times in the past couple of weeks so I'll take that as a good sign.
