So, I've got cancer

If you are a friend of mine and you're like "Why am I hearing about this in a KZread video" I'm sorry about that. I spread the news a bit, but I figured I'd let this do some of the heavy lifting for me.
Also, when I recorded this email, I didn't have my full schedule, but now I do. My first treatment begins....drumroll please, literally as this video goes live. So, there's a very good chance that I'm reading the comments right now while getting my first round of chemotherapy. I've also gotten my. PET/CT which showed that the cancer has not spread anywhere from its original location in my left armpit/chest area, which is very good news.
This sucks so bad, but I'm already learning so much...mostly about myself.

    Reply with some good movie and media recommendations here. NO BUMMERS. Hank, as someone who found the film Big Bird Comes Home a little emotionally overwhelming (because Big Bird leaves home and gets very scared before, get this, eventually coming home again), here are my recommendations: 1. All nine Fast and Furious movies in order (there are bummers but the bummers happen alongside, like, cars in space, so they do not feel like huge bummers) 2. Harvey (zero bummers) 3. Happy Gilmore (lowest stakes of any film ever made) I love you. We all love you. You've got this. -John

    My ex-wife had Hodgkins Lymphoma right after she gave birth to our second child. She was diagnosed at a very late stage - she was at stage 4a - and they put her on chemo. After half a year of chemo, she hadn't gotten any worse but she hadn't gotten any better either. The issue was 3 fold: She often felt physical pain; she didn't have much of an appetite and wasn't eating; and she was having trouble sleeping. That's when a friend introduced her to medical cannabis and it literally saved her life. Suddenly any pains she felt seemed tolerable; she felt hungry again; and she could sleep at night. After a year, she was in remission. That was 22 years ago and she's still alive and well.

    No worries Hank you will always be three things for me personally: 1. That one science guy I watched as a kid who made me really into science and is the reason I am on my way to being an underpaid Physics Teacher 2. The author of a book series I enjoyed tremendously through audible, that made me so happy for so many reasons, that I didn't even know was authored by that one guy who taught me science as a kid till after I had completed both books (they really are incredible journeys to be apart of a whole experience that I am just in love with and they have so much social commentary that I really appreciate and I hold those flawed mf characters to my hearts) 3. The funny guy who really likes Canadian geese for some reason and who the internet has deemed hilariously the guardian of the grass (and your "straight I mean ehh" moment was just golden for me) Cancer can never reach the level that these other identities are on, I mean like it goes to me with like the fact that John Green is your brother, is it true yah, does it probably affect your life massively yah, does it have anything to do with the way my brain compartmentalizes you, absolutely not, I have way too much autism for that.

    Hank, My father is a research scientist who happens to be the lead inventor on two current lymphoma treatments (I think they’re called rituximab and ipilimumab). His father, my grandfather, had lymphoma. My dad wanted to buy him some more time, so he started looking into treatments and gave his father an additional several years after his third and I believe final relapse (his cancer was aggressive). My dad isn’t super open or communicative, so I didn’t know any of this until my family watched your video. Here’s the thing. I’ve had an enlarged, hard lymph node for years that I didn’t really think much of, but I watched this video of yours when it was posted around three months ago. It prompted me to look up the B symptoms of lymphoma, most of which I had been complaining about to my doctor for months, but I thought for sure that couldn’t be what I was dealing with. Just in case, I scheduled an appointment with my doctor. I felt around to see if I had anymore enlarged lymph nodes, and I did. I have even more today. I mentioned it to my doctor at my appointment the other day and she put in urgent orders for imaging after feeling my lymph nodes. I have a CT scan scheduled for next week and an ultrasound the following week. I just want to thank you. I don’t think I would’ve addressed any of this or learned about my family history had I not watched your video. Regardless of my imaging results, I feel incredibly grateful to exist at the same time as you so as to have seen your video, as well as be my father’s daughter. I also saw your most recent update that you are officially in remission. Congratulations, sending all my love to you!! Thank you x1,000,000 Hank ❤️❤️

I had bad chest pain for about a week, first day I had it I went to hospital and they told me I’d probably just annoyed my chest wall by stretching in a weird way and it’d go away in about 10 days - but I should get a chest x Ray just in case. It went away, it’s been about a month and i haven’t had it so I can assume it’s unrelated. On the x Ray they found my lymph nodes were massive, after a few more scans and a biopsy I was told it’s cancer. I’m stage 2 no symptoms pretty much. Only breathlessness which is due to the fact that in my specific case it’s in my chest and pushing on things but other than that no weight loss, night sweats or any standard lymphoma symptoms. What symptoms have you got? Whatever it is no harm in getting an X-ray just in case. Apparently cases have skyrocketed since covid.

    I've been diagnosed with brain cancer (glioblastoma multiforme) in July when I was taken to the ER in critical condition. I was mostly out of it and I only remember a few fragments of that day, a few seconds each. I had my emergency surgery that same night, so I really never got a chance to actually process it. I woke up after surgery before the thought of "I have a brain tumor" could even sink in. Now, watching this video, I see so much of my own feelings in you. Especially when you said "I'm OK but I'm not OK", that was just such a perfect summary of how I felt, and to a small degree, still feel. It really helps me to see someone else talking about going through something similar. Thank you for sharing! P.s.: My surgery went really well, I've completed radio and most of chemo. Chances are everything is good. :)

    32 year-old stage IV cancer survivor here, I got through two horrific diagnoses despite the doctors predictions. Don’t underestimate the power of humor and positivity. Listen to your gut instinct as well to the doctors. Play the cancer card when you need to, now is not the time to be a hero. Now is the time to sleep, watch movies and get out into nature. All of those trump being beholden to other people. Finally. You’re in fight or flight mode now and will be in that “survival space” until you get the all clear in a few months time. So above all, give yourself time to process what is happening/has happened. That might not make sense now but when you get through the worst of it, you might find yourself in a period of “what-the-fuckery-just-happened-why-do-I-kinda-feel-depressed” and you will need to sit with it. That’s also normal, it’s rarely talked about, and you will be fine. There are millions of people rooting for you. X

About positivity and humor, when I was around other kids in treatment I always tried to spread positivity cause if we only have a couple years left then why not try and live it happily.

    Wishing you the absolute best, Hank! On the video game recommendation side of things, one I can recommend is a game called "Loop Hero". It's very chill; the whole premise is that it's a game that essentially plays itself. You just set up the world and press play and see how far your hero can go. It's got a banger soundtrack too. I hope you enjoy it, and I pray your time of treatment and recovery is both peaceful and effective.

    Loop Hero is a lovely game! Although I could see the themes being, uh, Heavy, haha, seeing as it's narratively a game about pushing back against forces that want the absolute destruction and annihilation of your entire world. Hell, at its 'happiest', the game concludes that creation, recreation, and rebuilding is WAY harder and slower than destruction, so it might feel bleak to play if you're in a dark mindset. 😬❤️ In a similar vein, I would recommend Vampire Survivors- it's a little more hands-on than Loop Hero, but it's also a roguelite where you play 'passively' (in VS, the character attacks automatically, you just move them, so timing is key) and kill vampires, and Vampire Survivors have no story or deeper thematics to get tangled in. 🥰

    I can't reply to the pinned comment for some reason so this seems like the next best spot! I'd suggest Deep Rock Galactic for some group fun. Dwarves in space mining alien planets, FOR KARL! Also Oxygen Not Included seems up Hank's alley. A colony sim game also set in space, you start in an asteroid with a tiny bubble of oxygen to start with, and have to expand and build your own oxygen supply, set up some food growth, mine and refine resources. The game heavily focuses on different gasses, all of which need to be managed in some way. The people and many machines produce CO2 that will suffocate you and your plants if not dealt with. There's chlorine gas produced by some plants and certain manufacturing processes, hydrogen produced by some oxygen generation methods, and a bunch of others, including the ability to turn metals into gasses in the right temperatures and conditions.

If you need help with any of the side effects, ask for it. They were a game-changer for me.

    I was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma a little more than a year ago. I went through six months of chemotherapy followed by a bone marrow transport. Tomorrow actually marks six months of being in remission. I’m starting what’s called maintenance chemo next week. It just helps prevent a relapse. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. As several have already said, we are all here to support you.

John talked about being identified as a cancer patient, I don't look at my brother that way at all, when it was new sure but since? Haven't thought about him in that way.

The more you feel like you are maintaining your normal life, the less the cancer will seem like a big deal. Eat healthy, stay active, focus on positive things and you’ll get through this. 👍

    When my friend was diagnosed in 98 her doctors told her to not give anything up for the sake of treatment. Basically they said if you work full time, keep working full time, if you are athletic keep doing your preferred sport, if you study keep going to school. They even said that changes in diet would not necessarily improve a prognosis. Essential they said that Hodgkins treatment works best when patients basically lived their lives the same as they did prior to the diagnosis. Other that having to schedule chemo and being mindful of the power immunity she definitely felt that was the best advice she go during her treatment.

    @Scyth there is no scientific evidence to support the claim that cancer is caused by vaccines. Numerous studies have been conducted on the safety and efficacy of vaccines, and none have found a causal link between vaccines and cancer. It is important to rely on factual information and scientific evidence when making decisions about healthcare.

Without you, I wouldn't have passed biology, chemistry, biochemistry, you name it. Your knowledge became my knowledge and I became a better student, cancer researcher, and person because of that. You've helped develop a whole new generation of scientists that will fight for you every day, knowledgeable because of what you've taught us. You'll always be the goofy science guy to me. Good luck, and I can't wait to see what's next.

I remember I would watch the body system video before I went to the class that makes A&P very easy (even though you were talking so fast but it was so convenient for the general knowledge that would be clarified during my actual class). I know you don't know me, but you have made many good videos that have helped me (and many more). I just wanted you to know that I have been a sufficient nurse for 4 years and you were part of it. Thank you so much.

I’m so sorry you’re having to go through this. I’ve been around many friends & family who have dealt with cancer and it never gets any easier to see anyone go through it, let alone someone as kind & positive as you. I truly believe you’ll get through this. Positive attitude is a huge part and if you can hang onto that through the rough parts you’ll make it through. Will be thinking of you every day until you’re in remission. Which you WILL BE. ❤️

    As a Hodgkin’s survivor myself, I know what you’re going through. I’m 3.5 years in remission. You’re going to be OK. My one piece of advice: you can choose to be fascinated by this whole process. That was the main thing that got me through diagnosis and treatment. Looking in the microscopes (I have a photo of my lymph cells now, how cool!), looking at the ultrasound, talking a lot to your doctors, seeing what hair looks like when it falls out, why some foods aren’t recommended during treatment, all of that. I’m sorry you have to go through this, but I’m truly looking forward to your novel perspective on this once you’re on the other side of it all. Choose to be fascinated. You got this.
