I lost my hair to cancer

[@vuhlandes]

So emotional making this for whatever reason. iIt took me like 5 days to actually edit this 4 minute video cause it was just too much... just visually I have to finally accept the fact I have cancer every time I look in the mirror. I truly do want to get back to making videos and interacting with yall but ive just been in too much pain and soooo tired. I will get back to it as soon as I can. I love you guys, talk to you soon.

I got so emotional watching this video, so I can’t imagine how it felt to edit and post such a raw moment for the world to see-thank you for sharing it with us. with or without your iconic hair, we will continue to love and support you for your kind heart and amazingly distinctive filmmaking & photography style. wishing you all the best, Vuhlandes 🤎

Your not sick and losing your hair, you lost your hair because your getting better. Your in my prayers, you got this.

[@Omni-King2099]

When you get better your hair grows back. Not sure why you thought that would be comforting. Sick ppl don't like being lied to, it's patronizing.

[@realnardpup]

@@Omni-King2099This was such an unnecessary comment. He’s loosing his hair because he’s getting better. The medicine is working but it’s also causing hair loss. You have no right to drag down a positive comment, especially on such an emotional topic

[@Calicosonder]

Been watching your stuff for a while, and brother, this hits so hard. My wife, my world, was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer March 2023. Six weeks after our daughter’s first birthday. Double mastectomy. 20 rounds of chemo. 6 weeks of radiation. Lost her hair in August. Dropped down to 99 lbs. Was damn-near bedridden through the holidays. It’s awful, man. I sat next to the love of my life for a year while she fought this thing, and while she’s thankfully on the road to recovery (finished treatment in Feb 2024. Her hair looks like Furiosa 😍) I’ve seen what this battle takes from you, and I wouldn’t wish this anguish on anyone. However, once you accept what’s happening, you realize this thing is what *you* make it. You are still forging your own path, and there are some crazy hard days, but I love how you see light in the journey. It completely changes the way you see the world. The way you take in each day. And the way you are capturing your journey is nothing short of profound. It goes so far beyond a beautifully produced piece. It’s an entirely new way to connect through this medium. You are so brave, brother. I send you nothing but light through every treatment, every dr. visit, every procedure while you work your way through this. The person you’ll be on the other side of this is going to be unstoppable.

[@startingoverbygrace]

This was so touching and uplifting. Prays to you and your family as well.

[@terryclark8745]

[@Patrick-jj5nh]

Probably the most cinematic self portrait of ill health I have ever seen. The creativity is bursting out of you despite this sickness. It's a perverse tragedy. My business partner and close friend is also currently in advanced cancer treatment.

[@KenyattaDavisPhotography]

This brought tears to my eyes. I lost my hair due to alopecia. It was very hard and took years to come to terms with the fact that this is who I am. I am praying hard for you to win this battle and come out on the other side victorious. I have been watching you for years and was heartbroken when I saw you announce your diagnosis.

[@isaacbenitez3160]

The comeback will be wild! Love and prayers, bro. #STILLVuhlandes

[@olaflawrence]

I fought stage 3 colin cancer at 15. It completely flipped my world upside down. You’ve got to be so mentally strong to get through treatment but just know that you can do it. As a fellow filmmaker, I see the beauty in using film as an outlet and a vice for who you are, you got this bro, keep going ❤️

[@thesharedexperience514]

Losing your hair is significant part of your journey. Remember that your hair is just one part of who you are. It’s not everything. Your hair carries your wisdom, your hair is an external expression of your wisdom. It’s been 17 years since my 2 year old lost her hair in the battle of her life with Leukemia. I still remember holding her during her medical emergency and hair was coming out in large clumps as I held on to my bby girl. This memory still holds clear in my mind. Hair comes back…hold on to your life🌈🌈🌈your love and your memories💜

Im not gonna lie. It took me and minute to watch this. When I initially saw you were losing you hair , it took me back to 2017 when my Auntie was losing her hair to chemo. I bursted out and tears and she told me not to be sad but it was the first time i realized she was actually sick fr. Youve inspired me with photography for years being that we’re all from MICHIGAN.
