When my father was diagnosed with Stage IV Colon Cancer in 2013, he told me "I've been searching all day online for stories about people surviving five years and can't find any," to which I told him, "Well, maybe that's because you're supposed to be that story other patients search for of the man who made it five years or more." He made it to four years, which was much longer than the 18 months his original prognosis was. Much love and good luck!

[@LoreCatan]

My grandfather was also diagnosed with Stage IV Colon Cancer a long time ago, but he only died 2 years ago. He was supposed to live 2 more years, but through surgery and chemo he managed to live 8 years after his diagnosis. I won't say his last years of life were easy, but during those initial 5 years he wasn't doing so bad. I do wonder if you're lucky or not if you get to live longer than that, because the last years aren't pretty, and if you die young you don't get to experience all that pain. Might be a terrible thing to say, but I just don't know.

I've had cancer, and I know how terrifying this moment is. Some people with cancer really resent it when people talk about it as a "battle," but I've always thought there's something useful in the idea. You're not a victim. You're a hero fighting a hostile force. You're not just riding this out, suffering helplessly... you're FIGHTING BACK, with everything you've got. Use whatever metaphor you need, whatever story will help you beat this thing. You're an artist, a creator with vast resources of imagination to draw upon... and cancer is just a dumb, evil lump that doesn't know who it's up against. Good luck, soldier.

i'm not even into puppets but this popped up in my feed. i wish you well and hope all goes well.

[@adamparsonsonline]

Adam, I wish you the best. I've known a few people with cancer/tumors through my life and I gotta tell you, please don't push yourself too hard or try to appear strong for the sake of those around you. It's great that you've got a good support network and your acknowledgement of the emotions you're feeling is super important. I've reached the part in the video where you're listing all the things you might post and work on and they sound great but I'll tell you frankly: trying to be strong and productive can be draining. I'm no doctor and everyone's different, so I can't say what will happen, but draining yourself generally isn't good for healing in my experience. Take your time. You've got this.

[@lilliansnide4073]

❤❤❤ I'll be praying for you. Thank you for teaching people so much. I hope you recover and that the operation will go smoothly. I know don't have much to give... But I know you have been an inspiration for so meny. Again thank you. Sending Love to you and your family. ❤❤

[@jphanks]

You sound like a really knowledgeable guy. Stay up on that. You are 100% in charge of your medical care. Don't let them gaslight you or your wife or postpone giving you answers. Remember to rest, get a case manager you can trust, and find a therapist to help with the emotional Rollercoaster.

[@teresayeates3437]

At first I was filled with so much anxiety, my brother was diagnosed with a brain tumour in December. However, when you said there was possabilities of positive outcomes, I felt relief. Not to say you do not have an hill to climb, but my brothers was the worst cancer you can get, the doctors were clear from the start there was only one outcome. You have hope, remember that when you go through the worst bits, focus on the future, and let those around you carry the rest.

[@sophiedanon7491]

I was watching one of your videos on the eyelid mechanism for puppets when I heard about your tumor. I feel so sorry for you and wish you (and your family) the best with your treatment. I have enjoyed watching your videos for several years. You seem so friendly and generous. And I made a nice puppet from your tutorials. I've been wanting to get started for years, being a fan of Kermit the Frog. My puppet is a big hit with the kids. They all want to pet her, put their hand in her mouth (my puppet is a carnivorous plant). Some ask her super cute questions like "are you going to school?", "how old are you?"... Puppets are really something special. I just made a donation and all my wishes for recovery go to you.

I live in persistent pain in my occipital area of my head, I want you to absolutely demolish this and I want medical science to help you and improve your situation.

Speaking as someone with a child that went through the same thing some years back I want to give you hope. My kid had a full recovery and now they don't even have to do treatments or take any of the nasty medicines prescribed post operatively. Completely recovered without any lasting complications from the surgeries. I hope for the same for you.

[@tonybyemedia]

My grandfather had stage four brain cancer. I feel for you and your family. Don't ever give up! I hope to one day join the fight to find cures and better treatments for cancer, as so many loved ones have left us too early because of it. Sending hugs, love and support! You've got this 💪
