Meet David, Plus A Conversation Between Justin Baldoni and the Cast | My Last Days

David Weinlick and Elizabeth Runze had the most unusual of love stories: they were matched up by their families and married as strangers in front of thousands of people at the mall. 19 years and four kids later, David was diagnosed with terminal colon cancer. This is how they spent their final chapter together.
My Last Days co-creator, Justin Baldoni, sits down for a special round table conversation with past cast members and their families to watch their episodes together for the first time and talk about life, love, mortality, and joy.
In collaboration with Wayfarer.

I remember the "spectacle" of David getting a wife at the Mall of America in Minnesota and my parents commenting how they'd be divorced within a month. I wish they were still alive to see the beautiful marriage and family David and Elizabeth had. I'm so terribly sorry for David, Elizabeth and his family and friends for such a terrible loss of a wonderful man! 💔

[@lori9964]

I remember seeing them on tv at the mall of America. What a beautiful love story. Thank you for sharing!

[@WILMA_]

i_love_rescue_animals - - WOW, that happened in the Mall of America? In 1998? It seems so surreal…but i am truly in awe. Dave and Elizabeth had the best life together. They both started REALITY TV as we know it today. Then they went on to have four kids who are as normal as normal can be says something about them. Every single one of us deserves love. And this love is AMAZING to watch - albeit virtually it may be. Thank you so much for sharing. I wish Dave’s kids happiness, kindness, and definitely fabulous HEALTH so they can live long to talk about their dad. Dave was certainly a character who I would have loved to meet in this life. But life is literally never a straight line. I wish all of you featured on this video either a happy life/R.I.P. and rest easy. I know for sure Shannon and Dave aren’t here, i don’t know about Chanel, Travis and the little black boy’s mom’s fates. Either way, I am praying for all of you.

[@marieevelyndunlap]

Three minutes in and when I heard that gramma said "well honey, it might be the great love story of your life" I started sobbing. I wish we could all be so lucky to find the great love story but it never happened for me. I was diagnosed with terminal cancer in March 2020 just as Covid-19 blanketed the planet. The hardest part, aside from telling my family, was going through chemo and radiation all alone because of the need to self-isolate. Thankfully, my cancer was misdiagnosed as being terminal and I actually have a decent chance of being cured. Sending love and light to you, Elizabeth.

Very well said, Danielle. When I first saw Shannon- I thought, oh, look at her….she is gorgeous! Then I was able to see her close up - the yellow of her eyes and I knew right away that she was the patient….great sadness. I think that she (Shannon) was the one that moved me the most; even though they all got to my heart strings. I’m not so great with names….(2 brain surgeries did me in- so sorry) however, that first gentleman when talking about his mom…heartbreaking😢❤️. This was a very moving documentary and there should be more like this… not the negative crap that we watch now but real life. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@samanthafitzgerel4460]

It’s so hard to watch these. I am in my 10thyr long battle with Cancer. These lovely souls are so blessed to have their spouses. My husband cheated on me & divorced me because “My wife’s cancer has taken its toll on me.” That was the reason he put in our divorce papers. He couldn’t stick around until “death us do part.” He left right after our 26th anniversary. I know that I won’t die alone, I’ll have our three lovely children. They adore me, I adore them……they are all I need.,❤️❤️

[@genderlesswhale2868]

That's so terrible to hear; I can understand that he may have been stressed but those actions don't speak of compassion. I hope things are the best they can be for you and your family now. I myself have built myself a family away from blood, but my nurse feels the same as me about her own bond with her daughter; Truest love doesn't have to be romantic, and love is what you make it. Souls make profound connections as long as there's work put in. I hope you also found some healing in these stories as many of us have and I wish you well.

Seeing Shannon's love story shows me that we all want/need unconditional organic love. I felt for her and her love ones as she sat there so beautifully rubbing the very thing that's killing her ever so gently. She seemed exhausted but yet stayed and engaged. Rest peacefully! Also there was a strong connection between Shannon and Bethy. I believe she seen her husband's final stages in Shannon. She couldn't fight the tears. All stories were heartwarming

[@CherryPi314]

Ah! 😭😘You’re all so lovely. *Sidebar: we are BOTH gingers. Hehe...we stole each other’s souls we like to say. He’s hanging in there. His sepsis infection manifested in his knee because of arthritis he already had there, we don’t know where the hell it came from, he did dig up a small parking spot in front of our house, it was all shell fish shells (we live in Rhode Island), they have been there for years, he dug about 2 feet down & had piles he was sifting to make the spot all ‘white shells’ once again; I did read that sometimes shellfish shells (clams,oysters,quahogs) OR a fish tank with a lot of bacteria (not something we have-it was just an example the article gave- but we DO have the single parking spot lined with broken shells) can cause a bacterial infection like this - if you have a small cut to where it can enter, it’s about the only thing that I can think of that he did that is suspect, he has arthritis in both of his knees- his job is in construction so he tends to work on them quite a bit, it’s just a guess and as I was reading it kind of made sense, we were doing some home improvements l and that’s one thing that he worked on 2 weeks before he was unwell- he went in 1st on June 26; got out a month later, was home two weeks (crutches, visiting nurse, picc line so we could do antibiotics-he had the picc line removed July 27)...then out of nowhere- he spiked a fever of 103.7 on August 2- I called the ambulance. I have never felt a fever so hot- he had to go back in and lo and behold the staff infection is back. they had to do a third surgery on his knee to remove severely infected synovial fluid and clean it out. Talk about a crash course and learning about sepsis infections! They are so dangerous and they come on so quick and if you are ever in the presence of somebody that has one, get them to the hospital as soon as you can! I really am quite blessed with all the support that I am getting from the small circle of family and friends that I have. I am grateful that you all left me a little love notes of positivity. that makes me smile. I wish you all the sparkle glitter in the world, love, light, health 💛 I also watched all these stories & had a MUCH NEEDED cry. I feel so grateful & these wonderful people are so brave. So dammit! I have to be brave too!!

[@slade2372]

I was blown away by this series! I have been the care taker for several of my friends over the years. It was exteremly hard at times; especially when they hit that angry at the world stage. I have been called everything but my name, I have hit, screamed at, and have had many things thrown at me. I took all their pain, hurt, anger, and fear and returned it to as love. As a care giver you can't take anything they say or do out of anger, fear, or negativity personally. I knew my friend's tantrum or melt down was a brought on by his or her situation and not anything I had done. Some families are not able to deal with helping their loved one bathe, or wipe their butt, or clean them up after they have vomited all over themselves. This is where I was able to step in and do those things their families couldn't. As hard as it was at times I was greatful I could be there for those friends when they truly needed it. It also gave me the chance to make whatever time they had left as love filled, fun filled, family filled, and positive as it could be! I kept them focused on positive things. I also would sit with them and just listened as they talked about their fears, regrets, whatever they needed to talk about. To me death is a transition from a physical being to a spiritual being and I wanted to make their transion as easy and fearless as possible.

Thank you so much for this. I have a chronic lung disease, I've deteriorated so much over the last few years. I got told 12 years ago I would reach the age of 28. This year I turned 30! It's taken a lot to accept. Physically and mentally. I struggle at first, sooo so much, and somedays, somedays it's still tough but when all these people said it gets easier to accept, they are so right! As my wife and I started accepting more and more, we actually decided to make youtube videos ourself to show others out there that they are not alone and that if they needed to talk, we can be there for them!

It's clear that in this series Love is the common denominator... I mean I guess that's a given, but one thing I found really interesting was Shannon's attitude. She spent the majority of her time on the couch lovingly stroking her swollen belly. Almost as if she was pregnant. She didn't hate her cancer, and Beshir said when the cancer came back he got to "do it right this time" and love on his wife more.now that she could be with him more.. Their relationship along with Dave and Bethy is just cute and beautiful and sweet. I wish everyone could experience a wonderful love like that 💕

[@MerryAnne2598]

I am so glad I found you today! I am a retired nurse, spent seven wonderful years as a hospice nurse. What I learned from my patients has carried me through some very difficult times, and my motto now is, “If you wake up in the morning and everything works, don’t complain!” These precious people who shared their stories are such a blessing and a light to all of us. We can make such a difference while we are here, and trust that what we have sowed, we will reap when we, too, walk through the Valley of the Shadow of Death. God bless all of you! ❤️🙏❤️

[@signer3130]

Shannon rubbing her swollen abdomen got me! Her jaundiced skin and eyes had me so emotional. I have tumors all over my liver. I was all in my feels when she spoke about people congratulating her and her husband. I had a coworker (who I don't know other than passing in the halls) come up to me and rub my belly one day. I was mortified and shocked that another human being would believe that to be acceptable behavior.

[@katiehildebrand9402]

Beth, humor is what got my husband, myself and our 2 daughters through his 15 month battle and then passing. Your family reminded me so much of ours. Lego Dave, the skeleton, etc.. Our daughters insisted driving their dad around (his urn), on certain occasions. They’d belt him in and all😂🤦‍♀️ He was 40 when he passed. Blessings to you all

[@Joshow313]

I hate seeing the gorgeous Shannon with her ascites/swelling in her abdomen. It pains me so much because I remember when my mother had that. I pray they will all have continued health and healing. SP truly left the best story for last. Dave sounds like an amazing man!!!!

Shannon passed away. She’s included at the very end, when they list “in loving memory of...”

The second I saw her I knew she was jaundiced and my heart sank- but then her beautiful soul more than lifted it up again. An absolute angel and a great loss, but what a profound healing, inspiration and peace to be found in hers and everyone's stories.

Today was a rough day. I have chronic nerve pain due to spinal nerve damage. My pain doc who had been amazing bailed in the middle of my appointment today. My husband was there and loved me and supported me through a crazy baffling moment. The 1st video popped up on my feed tonight. Our experience and these stories allowed me to see our journey from his perspective. I needed a reminder to appreciate and accept the love and support I get everyday and to always find the joy.

Oh I remember their wedding clearly! I was home very pregnant with my 1st baby and those hormones were raging. I remember just crying my eyes out bc I was so happy for them and how wild it was to do what they did. I had no clue what happened after. To see they had a happy life and marriage with beautiful kids and all that is wonderful. Cancer really sucks. I've had it twice and lost my mom to it. I'm so very sorry Beth for your loss. Thank you for sharing your love story with us. It's so painful and personal. My heart is with you all ❤

I think Dave and Beth have the best wedding story ever 😍 I think they are amazing parents and people ❤️

[@billiemunds]

I lost my Mom in 1984 to Cancer. She was 46 years young. I didn't know what to do. I was powerless. I had so much fear and pain watching her slip away from this earth. I became a nurse. I learned education about the unknown is more powerful than that black hole called fear. I just lost my Dad last month to old age at 91 and I was full of joy that he left this earth so quickly. He didn't suffer. He didn't linger in pain. And this time I was able to help my Sister and Step Mom because now we are the ones left on this earth with the loss of our beloved Dad. Thank you to all for putting this amazing show together. It's a game changer. No longer powerless. Just go help the person by doing the cleaning and laundry.

I stumbled across this series tonight for a reason. I was diagnosed with cancer April 16th, 2020. Because of Covid-19 my treatments haven't even started yet. I'm not gonna lie- I'm scared, but I'm a fighter. I'm going to do EVERYTHING I CAN to beat cancer's @$$!!! And if I don't, I pray I have the bravery, grace and dignity that each of these people have shown in THEIR battles. R.I.P. to those beautiful people who are no longer physically with us.

[@susandaly59]

As someone who was diagnosed with cancer in 2016, some days are tough. But what Shannon said “don’t ask how I can help, just do it” is so true. I’ve had friends for over 40 yrs and not one of them ever came to visit, cleaned or cooked for me. Several of my mother’s friends (in their 80’s) came to visit, bring flowers and soup. I had one friend who called me everyday and went to chemo with me several times. Other than that, nothing. My husband and kids took care of everything as best they could but it would have been amazing if one of these friends lent a helping hand at some point. It was actually heartbreaking not to see or hear from them.

And there is me, a 53 years old man, suffering from more than 30 Years of Depression and Loneliness, who has never felt or experienced this kind of *LOVE* those wonderful people are talking about. I have never been in a close relationship, only a few short affairs in my Youth. Last time i kissed or touched a woman was 34 years ago. And it most likely will never happen again. Depression has taken away all of my energy, my vitality, my will to live.

[@KerriCz]

I know I’m just a stranger on the internet and my comment may come off as generic, but I really do mean it when I say it. As long as you are alive, it is never too late to find love or meaning or whatever you want to find. Depression is an illness and it requires professional treatment. Help is out there and I hope you are able to find it because you deserve to enjoy your life. I know it’s easier said than done, like a million times easier, but it is possible. It is certainly difficult and I am not discrediting that because telling a person to just “get over” depression is like telling someone to just “get over” their cancer. It’s not remotely that simple but I hope you are able to find a treatment that works for you.

Thank you for these episodes. I have been fighting colon cancer for more than 8 years . I take chemo pills daily now to kerp it stable. Everyday when I wake up, I thank life for letting me live through another day. Do I live in pain? Yes, Do I feel like giving up sometimes? Yes. Do I get angry cause I can't do what I could do before? Absolutely. I have given paliative care for 4 people I loved till their passing and I think it was the most beautiful gift they could give me. Many people get angry or don't understand the way I choose to live or when I decide what's good for me is priority#1. You know what? They don't deserve to be in my life cause loving someone truly is aknowleging the way they are and supporting them always. Be greatful at life and enjoy every minute of it. 😊😊

For some reason, you tube showed me this film to view this morning. I'm laying here in my bed and been having some very hard few years for many reasons and one of them is living and fighting cancer for over 10 years. I had a great career that ended because my employer decided that my salary cost them too much compare to my 23 years of expertise.At 56 yeard old I was let go.. I am a fighter, a survivor who kept on working while having chemo. Right now, I feel confused and lost. I take my chemo pill every morning wondering what the future holds for me. And now I realise THAT'S the reason why this was offered to me to view.... Thank you. You gave me a reason to fight today..

I love soul pancake 💖 It's an underrated channel.

Dave and Elizabeth......I have never been blessed to meet them but I love them soooooo much! Their union was meant to be....it’s like watching the same person! Who gets to be so blessed? Their children are beautiful and have a strength that is truly visible. And Dave giving his body so others can learn is selfless, not only to learn “anatomy book stuff” but also to learn to be selfless and kind. L❤️VE YOU LEGGO DAVE!!

I feel like my life has been changed by this video. Wow.

[@sophiajoyceferry7150]

Oh right, Your life has been changed so much by these videos that you had the audacity to tell people that haven't got time on their side to stop focusing on what your life could be or should be, but to revere in what it is. JUST WOW !

[@elizabethfletter8919]

Sophia!! Stop! Please! Play nice: we know you must be in pain by your attitude but be more compassionate the main characters in this story I am pretty sure would love to tell you ' chill' there is nothing going on here worth you getting upset ...remember 💕💕💕💕💕!

[@rivkahmiri513]

Thank you... I needed something deep and meaningful and a good cry. Thank you! I've been dealing just with the minutiae everyday life living with the disability and having to do things I don't want to do. I just needed a break from the daily difficulty and a big dose of love! thank you for all you have done this. you've touched me in the universal human place. Thank you. thank you for helping me release emotion that I've been holding in. I could go on... you were touching more people in more ways than you might ever understand!

[@marykaynail2895]

As I lay here, not sleeping, crying and watching your lives, I know that I was truly blessed with your stories. I traveled with my husband with his last days and can relate to so many of the emotions. My prayers and gratefulness to all of you and your families for opening up your lives and hearts. Thank you. ❤️💔

[@paulawhite2546]

Lessons worth learning. Majestic souls, all of them.

[@Maintain_Decorum]

Well said.

[@SJaine-nb8fd]

I love this series what an awakening to the one thing that matters most …. LOVE .. sometimes we forget in our uncomplicated lives that it doesn’t really take much to love .. I bawled my eyes out through your last season and I’ve done the same with these ones .. I had a stroke when I was 8 I’m 41 now I should have died but I didn’t .. thank you for allowing us to be a part of each of your journeys xxx

Their openness is so refreshing. My husband of nearly 20 years passed in 1992. I hoped for that, but it was his life and his death. Even tho he was sick for a year he only talked about dying the last week of his life. We had to respect that. It was the unspoken "nightmare" we knew was coming. God Bless your family and your future.

I just watched the trilogy of this incredible video series of Jessica, Travis, Chanel, Shannon, David featuring their loved ones and THESE LOVE MESSAGES MEANT FOR ALL OF US TO LEARN AND GROW FROM. This is what the world needs to witness... these kind of love stories and the beauty and empathy of spreading LOVE not fear. Justin (and all involved), oh my goodness, I don't know where to begin. You are capturing MIRACLES and introducing us to universal wisdoms that help others in ways you do and don't even realize. THANK YOU FROM MY FULL HEART! 💝

[@norabranchetti1610]

They are all beautiful souls.

[@robingarrett3171]

You know I really like David. I hear a lot of people say the you be you, but are then critical of others in their private self. I feel he lived that. It resonates from him. Glad I got to know him, even with it being this way. Robin, stage 3 grade 2, dancing the dance

[@lyndasmith593]

So lovely and heartwarming...I needed to see this resilientcy in each of these beautiful souls. Thank you each for this gift. Love to you all.💕

[@catwomanarizona]

This is the most amazing show I have ever seen in my life. Each episode is soooooo valuable to remind you of what you have and to be Thankful. More people should see this. Bless you all and deep gratitude for sharing your stories. 🙏 Thank you

[@Magicalteam12]

Wow Justin is seriously a saint! Thank you for letting these people share their amazing stories

[@ceagle1960]

Love love love these videos. So much to learn from people who are sick and suffering. Thank you all for sharing your stories. Much love to you all.
