Aw man.. wish him the best, that's a hard battle. I hope whatever happens that he's surrounded by family and not in much pain.
Here's the video he made.

Pancreatic cancer is unfortunately one of the deadliest cancers because the early symptoms are not terribly distinctive, unfortunately. I hope the chemo gives him another couple of years though.
Shit, I love chilling with Jeopardy at the end of each day. Also like watching it with my mom when I can. Alex is such a trooper
Kick it's fucking ass, Alex.
I like the guy who laughs at his joke about needing to work three more years. Just because he has cancer doesn't mean he can't be funny about it.
damn how did they not catch it sooner.
Just to say, it is impossible to survive stage 4 pancreatic. He should have a few more years but he won't be able to beat it, I'm afraid.
While part of it is that there are relatively few early symptoms, that's not the (only) reason why it's so deadly. It also seems to spread and become resistant to chemo quickly. Even with a seemingly radical Whipple procedure, it always returns.
As one of my lecturers put it, "Only 1% survive pancreatic cancer, and that 1% probably didn't have it to begin with". I wish him all the best of course, but he will probably only survive for a matter of months.
Carter had brain cancer, I believe.
Metastatic melanoma is what google tells me, probably metastasised to the brain, and that’s what you heard.
My family and I have watched this motherfucker every single night on TV since I could first remember. Might sound weird but he's a part of my life and helped me forge lasting ties with my family.
Godspeed, you magnificent bastard. You kick that cancer's ass just like you kicked that robber out of your house.
My grandma was diagnosed with Stage 4 Pancreatic cancer, when they found it already spread and was too late to do anything. She passed away within 2 months of finding out and she was in a lot of pain so all they could do is fill her with morphine to help ease the pain.
So I hope Alex can overcome the odds and fight it.
