Channel Update: Planning Permission, Work & Cancer 

Sad to hear.😪 Take the time you need. We're still here when you're ready to post videos again. Important to take care of yourself.😊😊

You take care of yourself and we will be here when the timing is right for you to post again!

I really hope that god works in your favor.... Safe surgery when the time comes and I hope things will get back to normal soon.... Lots of love

Hello Jacob! Firstly, good on you for checking yourself - and even more importantly - telling other young men to do the same! I am certain that all will go well with your surgery. Please update us. Perhaps the planning commission will get a move on now that you’ll have time to build tiny places - sanctuaries. Blessings and Abundance to you and all that you love.

I love your attitude towards the life situations...red tape issues, cancer issues, dog obedience issues...vlog issues, job issues. Laugh your way through all of them. See the funny in all things because what's the worst that could happen? You laugh and your body is fooled into thinking everything is ok, just like that, you're healed, self employed youtuber with a cute dog and a thriving business with tiny houses.

Hoping for an accelerated recovery 👍

Lovely to see you and Muddy...not so lovely to hear of the ‘why’ behind the absence :(. Jacob you’re such a lovely soul, thinking of us when you’re going through all of that frustration and uncertainty. God bless you in every way you can be blessed. Take your time, we’re not going anywhere- you’re worth waiting for.

Jacob, you handsome and brilliant young man. We will be sat here waiting for everything and anything you send our way, with fingers crossed. And, yes, the NHS are brilliant: the way modern countries should operate. I look forward to seeing your brilliant talents put to use as an independent RU-vid god.

Dear Jacob, Do keep in your mind that you are a hero for all us... All the best!

Thanks for taking the time to update us. Wishes for an uncomplicated procedure and a speedy recovery to you. Hopefully...by the time you're ready your planning permission will be as well. The average person changes careers three times...so...no worries, mate! You've got this!!!

Thank you for sharing. Dont stress over the planning/building approval. Your health is your first priority.

Have missed your delightful videos - so nice to hear from you again. Hoping the surgery goes well and you have a speedy recovery.

🌺 Prayers for a full speedy recovery.. Congratulations on your new life adventure ❤️ It will be an awesome place

I know it's a terrebile shock the diagnosis. You are strong and young, that's on your side. God bless you and keep you, hope everything goes well for you. Take care

All the best to you! Thank you for sharing!

Very excited to see a video from you again! One of my favorite parts of your videos was the time you whittled those old man heads to go in the tiny house. It was neat watching your varied interests take you in that direction and made my jack of all trades, master of none brain say "ooo, whitting sounds neat." Basically, I'd watch whatever you'd put out even if there is no heavy lifting involved. Your editing and video making are top tier and your personality is what i enjoy most. Terribly sorry and best of luck to you during this rough patch, you sure are resilient.

Oh man I'm so sorry that you have testicular cancer but I'm so glad it was found early, its a good reminder for all men. Can't believe planning is taking so long but look forward to anything you put out there in the future. Sure operation will go great so get well soon man as will be sending positive thoughts.

Planning Dept still on furlough no doubt. Just build them. Good luck with your treatment, you'll be fine ❤

I am a not young man anymore, but I had couple of friends in my age who got it. They were as shocked as I imagine you are but both have normal life 20+ years later. I think is good and brave to share something so personal, and i hope it inspires/helps some viewers to be aware of the testicular cancer. All best and hopefully permissions are on the way.

Wishing you a speedy recovery!

Definitely missed seeing your videos, and was checking into the channel every week or so. I wasn't expecting this to be the reason behind the absence. However, I am glad to hear it was caught early. Thank you for being so transparent, and raising awareness. Hoping for your speedy recovery, and we'll be here when you're ready to come back.

Sorry to hear. Cancer is no respector of persons young or old. My sister had her left breast removed last month. My Aunt years ago had and died from Brain cancer. As she said. Can't exactly cut it out. Be thankful ( and I'm sure you are) that it is in a place that can be removed. As far as planning permission, Covid has slowed a lot of things down. We needed 8 breakers for our electrical box . Went to the store as normal. Was told we can order them but we can't promise when they will be in. Their last order had been placed in August they never got it til early Dec. We kept shopping around til we found what we needed. And of course, these days, everything has doubled in price.

Lovely to hear from you and of course Muddy. Take all the time you need to get yourself fit and healthy again. Wishing you a speedy recovery and fingers crossed when you’ve recovered it coincides with your planning permission being given. We will all be here when you’re ready x

Gods to see you returning...we will be there to watch all your videos and give thumbs up. Wishing you speedy recovery. Very important to keep up with positive thinking. You will be fine. Take care and good luck.

Happy you are back! Look forward to more videos about tiny homes or the boat or anything! Take care of yourself.

Still here …… not going anywhere! Love your vision for your tiny homes and sending lots of love as you recover from your recent surgery. ❤️

I was wondering where you had gone!!! Hope you recover fast and be cancer free!!! We will be here when you are ready to build! Thoughts and prayers for you and your family!! :)

Thinking of you - you have an infectious spirit. My cousin had testicular cancer over 30 years ago. He was playing bb and was hit there and the rest is his story. Glad you caught it early. We’ll see you when we see you. Please Get well soon. ❤️‍🩹 please.

Health first Jacob. We'll all be here once you feel up to getting back to work mate (pun... unintended). Here's to a speedy recovery.

Good luck with both planning permission and your operation. It's really good to see you still smiling. Will look forward to watching your project develop.

🌺 Hello 👋

Glad to hear from you. I was wondering if you were going to continue with your channel. I understand about the issues regarding permissions for building. Building projects alway take longer than planned. So sorry to hear about the cancer but happy to know that you caught it in the early stages. I pray that all goes well with the surgery and you recover quickly. Having the company you were working at close on you, certainly is a tough break. Knowing that this is the second company that you worked for, to do so, seems so unfair. I hope another job turns up soon. Take care of yourself and your lovely wife.

Good for you for sharing about the cancer. All the best for a speedy recovery and permission to move ahead with you plans!

Best wishes for a full and speedy recovery! Looking forward to future videos when you are ready. In the mean time, take care of yourself. We'll be here when you get back.

Glad to see you back. Sorry for your health scare, but it sounds like all is on the right track. Looking forward to seeing more of what you do here.

Sorry to hear about the diagnosis, but I’m pleased to hear all will be well. I did miss your videos the past few months. Take care, mate.

Jacob, delightful to see you again! With regards to your recent diagnosis, keep your positive attitude and sense of humor; don't let it get you down. Positivity and laughter create healing endorphins and it beats the hell out of being gloomy. Continue to take care of yourself, stay in touch, we'll be here for you. Cheers!

Good luck! Prayers for it all to work out easily.

I hope the operation goes well and things get better for you in general

Right, check my balls. Got it! I don't have them due to being a lady type, but sending you many blessings and tons of love as you move through this. You've got HUGE balls to run this channel and deal with the stupid bureaucrats getting in your way. Take care of yourself, Jacob. Can't wait to see how fabulously this all works out for you and the channel I love. Still want to take a bath out there sometime. :)

That's terrible, your such an incredible person, the world needs more of your videos. So fuck that cancer in the eye and get it over with.

Sorry to hear. I'll be praying for you. My husband had the same issue 3 years ago. Good to catch it early! He had 6 months of treaments and 2 1/2 years of clear scans. This is just a bump in the road. You've got this! ❤️🙏 from South Carolina, USA Jane

Sorry to hear about your medical problem. Will be keeping you in my thoughts & prayers. And that planning will go through also. Take care of yourself & thank God you caught it early, Chris from Missouri

Get well soon mate, keep posting & uploading .

Good luck and take good care of yourself

Stay strong my dude, glad to see you are still around.

Great to hear an update, not so great on the health front, but great that it's been caught early. But a year for planning permission?!

Sorry to hear that. I hope you have a quick recovery~

Hope for a speedy recovery. Take a good rest. Don't worry. We'll wait.

Will be praying for you. With the new targeted immuno therapies (if needed) it’s a game changer.

My husband and I both had cancer, we didn't hardly see any doctors. His was on his hand and it was very fast growing. A surgeon just took it off and he never saw any other kind of doctor. Neither of us had any chemo.

Blessings for your health and business plans.

Many blessings to you and speedy recovery! Looking forward to the journey!

Godspeed for your quick recovery Jacob. Thank you for your update.

Great to see you both again, keep fighting….planning and the ball thing 😊

Thank you for making this, we missed ya.

Prayers that all goes well.

💕Best wishes with your operation & a speedy recovery💕I hope this doesn’t affect your ability to produce children💕

Wish you all the best, Jacob! You're a good man and talented creator. Defeat the disease and come back with new portion of your great videos))

Stay strong, move on. Take care and best wishes, Martin

Hope all your plans workout, that was a great little update

Love ❤️ and prayers 🙏🏽 to you and your family Jacob. Praying for strength and healing. You’re awesome and your videos are awesome as well. Cannot wait to see you well and back at it. ✌🏽❤️ my friend.

Happy to see you again.

I’ll be here waiting…just take care of yourself!! Maybe this is why it is taking so long for the permit.
