That Dragon, Cancer 

chromejapan this broke my heart..... only 11.

T~T

aw :(

only 11, that’s horrible, I had a friend named DJ, he was 9, he would have also been 11... Rest In Peace little guy 😔

oh fuck

He's someone who is really making a difference. 👍🏻👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I salute you.

exactly

Respect. For you and Mark.

I really like this comment....couldn't have said this better.

People can be messed up when then look down on you in discussed and tease you or just be very rude just because you show emotions I remember when my mom had an dying gallbladder and she was on the string between life and death for 3 months and I was told she was going to die no matter what and since I’m just a kid it hits me hard. I was in so much pain because I’m given all this weight in an instant and I just felt helpless and very depressed for a long time and soulless beings think it’s ok to just mock people like me and be rude cuz we are showing we are in enormous amount of pain. I just hate those types of people and always will until the end of time.

@@Chase_Sparrow3337 yep it’s just other people don’t understand the pain people like ma have to go through and it feels messed up

This is going to be my Discord status for a good while. Thank you for sharing this quote with us.

Great quote

TrustLoveFaith it’s true. My boyfriend’s little sister has a cancer-classified condition, luckily they say it’s not going to turn terminal, and she’s only 10. It’s heartbreaking to see her have to leave for chemo because she hates it and her mom hates it. It tears him (my bf) up every single time because he’s so scared and worried about her.

when I saw somebody I immediately thought of all star by smash mouth

It’s true, my mam had it a couple years ago when I was 10. I couldn’t really understand it until I saw her in hospital, she’s fine now and I try to forget about it x 🙂

TrustLoveFaith Cancer has destroyed over 1.8 million people and has affect millions of more, family, friends, lovers... It’s something you can’t run from, hide from, and can barely cure... The process of chemo kills many and leaves all bald to further embarrass them... It is something that only a true warrior can take on a dragon, a beast, that only the strongest individual can take on, for all it affects I give my heart to them! ❤️ Stay strong and fight on my brothers and sisters!

Not the whole family unless it was the father that had it and his own that reproduce get it.

Im happy for your dad❤️ I pray for your grandpa❤️

Stay strong and have a great day

I know what thats like because my grandma has stage 4 bone canccer and the worst part is her's is incurable, just remember the people in your life are so important keep them close and you will get far in life.

I’m surprised a enclave member cares

@@waterwaifu612 Ik your joking but not the place dude

Yea i cried so much during this like at least 70% of me watching was crying But mark is strong for us

@@boykisser652 same

He's just such an incredible person.

Your pfp matches you name

@@ghostwolf- Thats because I am autistic.

Very true and also because I think this game represents many small children around the world suffering from cancer and what they and their families go through.

The parents are faceless too though, everyone is.

​@@blu_otaku7063Are you actually for real right now? Like actually?

@@gerardwayseyelash no autocorrect fucked up my comment. It thinks that "faceless" isn't a word and changed it to careless.

@@blu_otaku7063 Oh 💀

Whatttt?? Why did they do that?

I was in the middle of crying when RU-vid gave me an upbeat commercial.

I am legit disgusted by it. RU-vid is really messing up, they do not care for their creators at all.

There is no ads on this video for me??

@@febbledebble one day all of us creators big and small popular or not will stop posting and go on strike in a way unless they get good and stop with this it’s unfair to be honest if a vid has adds we need to be paid, and I personally don’t post many vids but I stream a lot and I’m my case I wouldn’t make that much money but that’s not what I do it for I do it for the fun of it because I’m playing the games anyway why not stream it, but whatever I’m ranting so I’ll stop

That's depressing.

Very wise

Both wise and depressing. Perfect combo👌

Nice add on to finish this off

That quote can be seen in modern war fair

That part made me break down mentally. I don't have kids of my own, but my maternal instinct slapped me in the face from how much it hurt listening to that poor baby cry... when I have kids, I swear I will do everything in my power to be a good mother to them

bro i was sick like that once, trying to drink water made me go P U K E

Current trying to keep it together at midnight 🥹

​@gerardwayseyelash Same, man. 2:30am and drunk as all hell. All I want to do is cry, and comfort Joel and everyone in this comment section. I hope you're doing well, too. Are you alright homie? :]]

​@@TheHalloween_JackYeah...I've lost family to cancer so it just hits harder...

That’s terrifying

There’s nothing more soul-wrenching than a baby crying in pain.

That's really horrible when you think about it....

That shit *hurted*

WHY DID YOU HAVE TO TELL US THAT

Amanda Ahola was about to say the same thing. I’m not usually emotional but damn. It hurt.

Amanda Ahola I feel that. My fathers name was John an he also passed from cancer, so that part hit me hard.

Yeah...that made m cry to.

Me too. It hurt so much. I mean it, SO much. I started crying a lot, I had to silently scream because everyone home is asleep. I had to hold something tight to keep from screaming. I’ve never been like that before, it just hurt

I know! That part was hilarious! 😂

I really hope the best for him and your family, bud

Hope youre going okay friend 💛💛💛

I'm sorry that your father has cancer and how you and everyone else who loves him has to go through the pain of it as well. I don't know how your situation is, nor do I know what happened, but I hope you guys are going to be well. (Sorry if this came out in a wrong way for you. I just want you to be well later on and hope that your father makes it.) UPDATE: May 28, 2023 I found out that someone in my family is borderline leukemia and has been battling for 18 years. Apparently more people on my mom's side of the family is dying of cancer.

Yes. Just like people, they can sense emotion and react to it. Also i love Chica! Suchagooddoggo!

Not telepathy but more of your reactions

My cat would always comfort me and sit on my lap when I cried. He also sat on my cast when I broke my leg. 🥺

I'm not even going to lie I thought you were going to say it solidified the fact that dogs can smell cancer ;-;

Most animals, especially if domesticated or bonded with humans. I've had pet rats who were very intuitive and would get worried if I was sad, and I try not to be angry in a room where my pets are because I don't want them to feel those chemicals from me, they seem really sensitive to it. Some are not as intuitive too, it also depends on the animal's personality, some are more attentive and concerned while others are a bit spacey and don't notice, just like people and how sometimes we're very good at noticing something is wrong or off about someone but other people don't notice anything.

Yeah

@Shin Splitter 31:58 is when the part starts

you don't, I have the same experience as him, and you don't think of that thing until it is seen or brought up again, and when it is, it wrecks you. /gen

I hope your dragon never comes back. You must keep it away

I'm so happy you beat that stupid dragon. I really pray and hope it stays far away, for good!! It's good to hear you are doing well and that you could find some comfort though this game. The developers did such an amazing job on it. Makes me bawl every time I watch it, every single time.

And his repeated whisper of, "There's so many cards . . ."

When?

I broke down when I did the math on their ages. The first one was ten, and I started tearing up, but when it got to the next one and he was only four, I really started crying

I like chez I’m not exactly sure of the time stamp, but it’s when he’s reading the first couple of cards (I’ll probably edit this when I find it again)

@@ilikechez5775 37:50 I think

And what his YET to do

I did. Didn't when my grandfather died when he died of cancer because I simply couldn't. But now, alongside with seeing Mark, a RU-vidr I have been watching for years, and even by rewatching ... It gets to me closer than ever before.

True🥰

I felt so bad whenever he apologised for crying. Don’t be sorry mark we understand

Well said

I’m so sorry. I cannot even begin to imagine how damn painful that must have been.

That means your cat is your family. What you shared sounds much more painful than losing a human family member who isn't there for you. Your cat was there for you, and you lost your best friend. I don't know how it could possibly be worse.

I CAN FEEL YOUR PAIN BECAUSE WE ALSO LOST A CAT TO CANCER. sorry for that to be in caps. try adopting a new cat...

(Nice pfp!) I lost both of my cats last year, one of them to cancer which seemed to have grown very rapidly and suddenly. What’s crazy is that he showed almost no signs of slowing down until his last few weeks- and we think it’s because he was holding out for his brother. He waited, he was there for him, and then after his brother passed, he finally started to let go.

Our Grief is same all the way to the end of World.....neither less, nor more

I’m so sorry.

It really is.

It's because he's met kids in that exact situation

Yeah, his voice was really gentle too

Mark would be such a good dad

@@hellokittyhoe2532 he's always said he's wanted to be as good a dad as his dad was

mia moore YES WE LOVE YOU MARK 😢😢

mia moore WE LOVE YOU MARK AHH

mia moore YES MARK WE ALL LOVE YOU DONT WORRY WERE HERE FOR YOU

mia moore when I saw a tear fell down from his eye at 38:00 then when I started to get teary eyed it's hurts me to see a favorite RU-vidr to be in tears especially when you hear the guilt in his voice when he said he feels guilty turning his back o. them

I cried when he said he felt bad leaving them behind with all the cards, it hurts when I see a usally happy person was, a lot.

Dang, both of your parents are absolute warriors against that dragon, cancer!

I love the portrayal of his heaven witch is exactly what a child's innocent mind would want.He just wants to eat pancakes with his dog and blow bubbles

I'm sorry to hear that, I bet she was a wonderful person

I am so glad your mom beat her dragon.

I hope love, support and healing finds you or has found you

i love you not in a weard way but i hope your ok everybody loves you btw your granpa is playing basketball with kobe

My grandma died of cancer recently, I didn't have a chance to say goodbye to her. This game brought back memories :( Hope you are well too.

I always thought that he was faceless because the people who made this game wanted Joel to not just represent himself but everyone else has been suffering with cancer

I had another interpretation, i thougt that through cancer didn't give joel the time to actually grow up, he spent his time sick and in the hospital and died young, never having time to actually gain his face, himself

@Security Cam Sam it's just a choice of words, no need to be mean

@Security Cam Sam theres no need to be an asshole here. Some people manage to make everything a problem smh

hi night lol

Because it was a real kid. (or at least it was based on one)

he would be the best dad.

I am so sorry for your sibling. You wil meet him inthe after life. Sorry for my English I am Japanese and it is hard to learn.

It's taken a few members of my family as well. I'm so sorry for your loss. And I hope they find a cure for all Cancers

That dragon had taken away a lot of my family members and Tomorrow my uncle will fight that dragon for the first time. I’m so sorry for your loss. He was a fighter! A strong fighter. I hope they find a cure for cancer

I am sorry, so so sorry for your loss. I can’t weigh how unbearable it must be for you and your family But all I know, is that He will be safe And he won’t hurt anymore You will see him again someday

I am so sorry for both you and your cousin. They didn't deserve to go that young🙏💕

Robin Williams' quotes about happiness always get me right in the heart, he was such a jovial guy fighting problems on his own until he couldn't anymore

Ninjaiceboy Frost why not

@@ztrain2379 So you're one of those fools who believe suicide equals going to hell? You f*cking... Ugh. It's so unfair and cruel to think like that. That rule was only created because religious people would get themselves killed to join heaven and Jesus sooner. They made it a crime and weaved a lie that people who commit suicide don't go to heaven. It's all mind games! Religion is an outdated belief from when we didn't have other ways to explain things. Choosing to believe that is way better than thinking some god actually wants to care about us, but lets us suffer like it's all some silly game to him. I don't care if I'm speaking truth or not. God can kill me if he wants. I'm not following a damn psycho.

I hope there is no heaven, and no hell. I hope we all just.. Stop existing. Our only remains being the body. I've gone through one hell of a life. There's no need to go through another hell, nor watch as others do. Neither do I want to be a spirit and remember my life. I want it to end. I would be okay with being reborn as another human or even an animal, however. It would be another chance.

He would and he would understand how many people he makes happy

I’m sorry for your loss

I wish you well and hope you and your family are finding comfort in each other and anything that makes you happy.

Could I give you some advice. You need to live live to the fullest and like what mark has gone through and your sister has been winning the battles but cancer won the war and your sister must be a really sweet person and I am sorry for your loss and the only thing is is that I have not lost anybody yet that I treasure. I only lost my grandpa but I never knew him so it did nothing to me but it was very heartbreaking for my mom and my dog is 11 and I am imagining of when she dies and me at her grave just crying than sitting and my grandmother used to smoke and when I lose her I will cry for days and she meant a lot to me and I am sorry for your loss and thank you for reading this and I hope you and your family members live a full and happy life

I’m so sorry

There is nothing anyone can say to make up for this, but may she rest in peace, everything is going to be ok.

I actually lost one of my best friends to cancer though I never got to say goodbye as we had left off on a bad note. However his dad called me and told me one of the last few things he said was "tell everyone I'm sorry and I love them all" and I couldn't stop crying for what felt like forever and I just want to thank mark for keeping the world a better place

My dads last words to me were “go...nigh..lohve..you...”

I felt the same way. I was bawling through that entire scene. it was genuinely painful to sit through.but I think it's good to let yourself feel that sometimes. allowing yourself to accept that sometimes there is just nothing you can do. and it hurts so much. and even though it may not feel like it, your love and strength through it all does matter.

@@ispeakmovie I had to stop watching there. I cannot handle that screaming. I just can't.

@@teunw6699 The sound of a child's suffering in any capacity is one I can barely handle. I often wind up crying with them.

@@AP-uj2fg yes and that goes also with things like children being abandoned, abused, neglected

that scene almost made me have to click off the video. i have a severe sensitivity to small children crying and the whole time I was mentally begging him to stop. but I still knew he wouldn't, and I knew I couldn't do anything about it, and it made everything worse. honestly I think it might've been the most I've cried in a while...

Just let the rivers fall, let it fall.

Oh man 😞. I'm sorry that happened, buddy.

Your great grandma's a badass. "Fuck Cancer." "Now fuck this walker." Just know that she would fight God and win

I am so sorry bud❤

I’m so sorry, we love you grandma lorraine

I'm sorry for your loss. My grandma fought breast cancer and won. She slayed the beast. She's the strongest person I know. I love her, I hope I get to spend more time with her. I have so much to learn.

I get why she feels that way but at the same time I would never find even the concept of not loving ones child for something out of their control or even can it's not ever okay

I did too

UnusAnnusFan138 my best friend was six when you died of DIPG cancer which is brain cancer, I’ll always remember her

That's so sweet

A girl in my 2nd grade class had breast cancer. Im pretty sure it was breast cancer anyway...

I did to it broke my heart I lost my pa to cancer so I know the feeling

My grandpa had testicle cancer but he is okay ()

The crying and screaming made me cry

It’s so sad. Those are his real voice recordings. I don’t understand it. But I can think of how it must feel. Cancer is a an unfair beast that does not play by the rules it cheats steals and destroys. It ruins beats and burns. Cancer needs to be stopped.

I'm sure your grandfather would be proud

I can relate to that. My 6th grade teacher had cancer the entire time he taught us. He was and will forever be my favorite teacher.

it seems the ones who are constantly pouring out themselves are the ones who are missed most. I hope you're doing well today!

I had to stop it too. But this video was like an unfinished book to me. Or an unfinished chapter of sorts. I HAD to finish it. And i managed to do it. Believe me. You want to as well. This video ends on such a beautiful, peacefull, conclusive note.

My aunt Linda had cancer. I remember her smiling even though she was so obviously in pain. That was the first time. I didn't get to say goodbye the second. I managed to finish this video.

I had a sweet teacher for honors English my senior year of high school, Mr. Beason. He was so nice and funny, everyone loved him. I didn't do well in the class, skimmed the books we were supposed to read, and he still graded me generously because he didn't want to fail me for being stressed and unable to read an entire book in two weeks when I'm about to graduate. Then a few days before the last day of school, he told us he had a brain tumor, and he waited to tell us because he didn't want people distracted all year thinking about it. That really hurt, I never saw him again after the last day of school when I gave him a photo my mom had taken and framed with a little Bible verse (he liked to use literary examples from the Bible but he always did it perfectly scholarly, because he was religious but understood how important it was to not bring the religius stuff into class, and only used it for the literature examples) and he cried when I gave it to him, and I cried. I'm crying again now. That was 12 and a half years ago, Idk if he's still alive or what, I only knew him for one school year, he wasn't family, but it hurts to know someone that good has to die in such a painful way.
