"The enemy of a good decision in health care is trying to make a perfect decision" wow

What a lot of young men don't realize is that testicular cancer can strike very young. Teens and early 20s. Scrotal exams for men are just as important as breast exams for women. Do a self-exam monthly so you know what your normal is. Parents should start their kids early, so there is no stigma about it. We do it for our daughters, why not our sons?

He had cancer? Well now I'm even more of a fan. I was diagnosed with brain cancer when I was 20. (Now 25) It's gone now but I'm rocking a purple wheelchair.

Cancer is super scary but thanks for talking about your experience! ❤

[D_editz]

“ I’ve got this 🙂”
And he really did! He is so strong and we are so proud of you Colby!

[heidibaltom]

My brother was lucky. He had testicular cancer. They cut it out and he had 3 chemo tablets which just put him out of action, he could hardly walk. But after that he's absolutely fine. It's definately scary but if you catch it early enough it's very treatable

[maveryfauth]

Cancer is difficult but Sam and Colby deal with a lot of hard and scary things. I know Colby can fight through this!

[I_AM_THE_SELFISH_MACHINE]

Colby is so strong I'm happy he's gonna be okay

[LadyASolveg]

That look on his eyes at the end really tugs at the heart. When you're young and go through cancer it can really change you. Especially if you were carefree or fearless. I'm glad he pulled through

[GracyeBranham]

I am so sorry Colby I am Unfortunately going through Brain cancer and this started last year
in January. I am a whole year through my treatment one more year to go! So my point is is that always stay strong and never give up because that is what had gotten me through all this time! One more thing before I go listen to this song "I'm Still Standing" by Elton John, this song also helps me a lot. Get well so Colby <3
:)

[Aiko-pezy]

Bro hates cancer so much that he's even wearing a shirt that says "F*** cancer* 👍🙂

[vasiliroros]

From the pain, to the embarrassment, to not even knowing what to come. This was me down to the point last year. Glad more people are coming out with this publicly cuz most people don’t even think about testicular cancer and young men who are in the age range 15-35 should be aware this can happen. Happy to report I’m officially 1 week out from a year remission when writing this!

[BlueBlacy]

The enemy of going to the doctor in America is *money*

[Anonymous-tdkj]

My aunt currently has cancer so when i heard he also had cancer my heart dropped, Knowing what my aunt is sadly going through i don’t want anyone else to go through, to anyone who is or had a family member going through that i wish you or them luck. To anyone whos reading this i hope you have a wonderful day and an even better week

[bignoonzz]

i love sam and colby! you too doctor mike..

[Dumb_Bunny]

OMG YESS, I love Sam and Colby so so much, I was devastated when he said he had cancer, I was so worried and scared for him, I wished there was something I could do, but there wasn’t. Thank you for doing this video with him. ❤❤

[merbear]

There's never a perfect answer in Healthcare. There's never a guarantee in Healthcare. I had a doc tell me 100% without a doubt I will miscarry. That 100% will be 9 next month and a big brother in December. Sam and Colby are some of my fav youtubers. I know that no matter what happens, Colby is strong and courageous. You got this bud. I'm rooting for you!

[abbie_devita]

i almost cried watching this. i’m so proud of him for overcoming cancer and i’m so glad he had sam by his side the entire time

[Idontwant]

I’m so glad his cancer was caught early. And I’m thankful that his treatment was successful. This should be a cautionary note every single person should take. Do self examination. And don’t be afraid to get it checked if you find something.

I loved every minute of this video. They way they talk about their experience and how Dr. Mike explained and orientate him about the whole situation ❤. Hope Colby is doing better.
