  1. Dan the Man,

    You are in my thoughts every day. If there is anyone on earth with the power to beat this, it is you my friend. See you soon.

    Love you always,,
    Bryan

  2. great to see you on Sunday, was amazing to meet so many of your friends and was really touched by the turnout. If you need anything, help in the shop, help with errands, let me know. As long as I am in town, I am happy to help.

  4. sorry sir. after looking closer at your uniform, i realize i may have made a mistake… but whether you are in the air or in the water i still wish you a smoother journey ahead. peace. /spike

  5. captain: i got word of your recent (and temporary!) turbulence on your flight through life by sasha and want to wish you well. in addition to your drug therapies and surgery, surround yourself with your funniest friends as laughing will make your recovery that much more quick. i’m sure of it. /spike

  6. So I’m watching Law & Order a week or so ago and guess what one of the character’s names was…Calum Donovan. Cool or what?!

    I literally think of you every morning when I wake up and give thanks that you, Dan, are healed HERE and NOW!!

    love and ((hugs))

  9. Morning Dan! 🙂
    This is Yvette from New Hampshire. I have known and loved your Mom and Al for many years. I have also known of your plight for several weeks and have kept you in my thoughts and prayers. I am a relatively private person so I did not initially sign your guest book… Your Mom just left me after bringing me up to date. I have known a few persons over the years (just last year AND last month my 83 year old mother) that have kicked cancer and come out on the other side. I have faith that you will as well! I can tell from your pictures that you are an amazing soul with many more years of living the good life ahead of you. Stay Strong and God Bless!! XO

  10. Hey Dan just on an actual computer for the first time in a month!

    still here in Rumi’s homeland, back in city of St. Francis at the end of May.
    Holding you in my heart…

  11. Danny-boy,

    You are wicked brave and I wish you everything. Remember, there will always be a pot of mashed potatoes for you at my house.

    Love, Donna

  13. Dear P,

    I swear on trees I will always be there for you. And the magic that you have brought to our lives is coming back to you in spades.

    love,
    k

  14. received the info from Sitzers in Nevada City and can see how brave you are and how well loved you are. I will be keeping you and your health in my prayers.

  16. hey dan marie arsenault here just thinking about u and your journey was omn the some one with my brother 10 years ago ill be at caseys on the 20 th stay strong

  17. Dan,

    I have often thought about you; our times in grammer and high school. What great times we had. You are an amazing person. Continue to remain strong and positive. I know you will beat this.

    Emily (xoxo)

  18. Dan, I heard about your news through Deb and Dave and I’m rooting for you, man. We’ve met on more than a few occasions, but we never really talk much. Perhaps we don’t connect or whatever, but I know that Deb and Dave love you and you’ve been a part of their lives for a long time. I sometimes wondered why you and I never really hit it off. But fuck that shit. None of that matters. I just want you to know that I know your story (as much as I can know it through D&D and reading your blog), and I’m in your corner. I admire the positivity in your narrative and in how you’re taking this challenge on. You’ve got a large, strong community that loves you. Draw strength from them. I bet it’s kinda weird in a way to have all this love and energy coming at you all at once. It has always there, maybe in the sidelines. But now you get to see it in action, front and center.

    Glad you’re blogging this. Good stuff. I wish you the best, Dan. And I look forward to seeing you on the other side of it. Maybe we can have a real conversation. Maybe we won’t. But I know you’ll know that I’ve been thinking about you and sending you good vibes. Now go kick cancer’s ass.
    All the best ~ Chaat

  20. Hey Dan! Just thinking of you. I’m really looking forward to seeing you on Sunday!

  21. I love you and am thinking of you every single day.Giant HUGS and kisses to you and Kaki. It’s a shitty thing to go through, and I am so impressed at how graceful and how strong you are in the face of it all. Lovings.

  23. Beaming good thoughts your way… and bidding on some items!
    Take care.

    I’ve been pouring over books of poetry
    trying to find lines that fit you appropriately
    but no pattern of words
    nor songs of the birds
    do justice to you.

    Because in your crazy way
    in who you are, in what you say
    you are the poem
    and the song
    I sing and hope for every day.

    Spinach strength to you, Popeye. Sending you heaps of hope.

    , Carolyn

  28. You were in my dream last night in the white van and we jumped across a huge river gorge and made it!

    Oodles of love to you.

    When can I get my hands on you again?

    See you Sunday hopefully…

  29. HI DAn! Just thinking about one of the funniest people I know. Shegota will be heading out west soon enough (late August) and making our way to see you. Can’t wait for that moment….

    Sending you lots of love!

    xxshay

  30. Hey Dirty, I have been thinking about you so much. My friend Margaret said she ran into you in the hospital. Life is weird. Remember those trips to Tahoe with you , Dillon, Alex and schniewind? Thanks for pissing me off so much that I had to get better at snowboarding. I know you are going to kick this cancers ass cos that is what you do,’you kick ass. Love you. Coming up soon to see you. Oxoxo KP

  31. I’m still free to go strolling if you want or need the outing. Thinking about you. Also, I can get you some great pickles.
    mwah.

  32. Greetings from the big easy!! I’ll be thinking of you tomorrow as you meet with your doctor. Be sure to wear a little unicorn bandaid on your boo boo! See you Sunday.XO

  33. I’m so happy you liked the pictures.
    I loved giving them to you and seeing your smiling face!
    You’re looking better & better every time I see you.
    And that makes me & everyone around you smile.
    Love!
    ~Lizzie

  34. Hi Dan,
    I can’t wait until we’re hanging out again in the waiting room of the casting agency, laughing and screwing around (uh, i mean, preparing.) All the best, my friend.
    Michael

  35. Hey Dan!
    Been a while since I’ve seen you, too long, and i wanted to add my voice to the chorus of positive thoughts and prayers.
    I am remembering snowboarding with you and Jason years ago, and the phrase of the day was “somebody needs a hug”, which, being a man of your word, you would accompany by some form of a full body tackle. Funny, funny stuff that only got more laugh-spasm inducing as the day wore on.
    Fight on brother– I know you will beat this.
    And if somebody needs a hug, you know where to find it.
    Phil

  36. Hey, Dan!

    You are in my thoughts every day–so happy to read that you’re doing better. Keep it up!

    Rots of rove,

    Abby

  38. Dan! A friend brought up a good idea on picking movies to watch. His wife only watches movies on Netflix rated 1 star or 4.5 stars and above. Make sense right? Everybody loves a great movie but nobody can resist a train wreck. Stay strong my friend. -ivan

  39. Hey Dan!

    It’s me, Nurse Shannon! I met you and Forest at the Unitarian Church after the Obama Campaign. We had all been in Cleavland Ohio for the election. I am so sorry that this is all happening to you! I’ve worked with alot of cancer patients and SURVIVORS! I would love to support you anyway I can. Though we did not know each other well, your passion for life and wicked sense of humor came across loud and clear. I work at UCSF. Where are you getting your treatments?

    If I could share just one thing that I have witnessed in the past 31 years of nursing that seems to separate the “wheat” from the “chaff” is not only what they feed their body, but what they feed their mind. I want you to say, morning noon and night, and all times in between “Every Day in Every Way I am getting better and better….Every Day in Every Way I AM getting better and better…” then end it with a “Thank You For My Healing!”

    I will hold you in the highest vision of perfect health and miraculous healing.

    Peace my friend.

    Shannon

  40. hi dan, just thought of you. it’s may and we spent great taurus b-days together…. hope you’re staying strong! lot’s of love + well wishes from henni and family

  42. Hi Dan,
    I have the pleasure of working with Teddy K… he sent our team an email about the challenge you’re facing and asked us to help out. Even though I don’t know you, I just wanted to let you know that you have perfect strangers thinking about you and hoping for the best. Stay strong! Hope to read good news on your blog.

    Eunice

  43. Dear Dan,
    Kurt let me know what was happening to you. I am so very sorry and know you will beat this. You are an amazing talented man and father, with a very strong will. You are in my thoughts and what prayers I do make for a speedy recovery.
    All best wishes,
    Charlotte

  44. Michele
    Hi Dan,
    I am one of your mother’s nutty friends. We have a lot of fun together. I live across the street.
    Dan, I will pray for you to beat this cancer. My son was very very sick (not with cancer) . We almost lost him to the Lord. When you’re mom told me about you I understood how she feels.
    Good doctors, medicine & prayer will help you through this. Will be thinking of you.
    Smile, you have a beautiful one!!!

  45. Danny Hough…
    It’s been a long time but, Joe Brag, Ann Fitz, and I still reminisce about our fun times in high school. Boy did we have alot of fun and laughs.
    You are in my daily prayers. You need to draw from the strength within you and lean hard on the people who love you and willing to help. My sister -in-law was diagnosed with a rare type of cancer….5 years ago. Needless to say they gave her 6 months to live. With the support of people who love her, Divine Intervention, and positive thinking, I am glad to announce she is cancer free. Danny, stay strong, never give up, and we will make plans to get a group of us together your next journey back to Mass. God Bless!

  46. Greetings from NH,

    I’m thankful to hear stories about you from your proud mother & it’s wonderful that you are sharing so much of yourself here on this site. I wish you strength and peace as you continue your fight.

    Many prayers for you and your loved ones!

  47. To my dear friend Dan whom I have known since 8th grade –

    I love you sweetie – I wish we weren’t so far apart geographically – Your friends from Boston love and miss you and are pulling for you.

    One can certainly see you have a following. See you in the summer or fall.

    Love always Crispy 🙂

  48. Dear Dan;

    I have thinking about you and asked God to grant you the wish to overcome pancreatic cancer. Your strength, determination and love for life are your biggest weapons. Keep on fighting,… and I assure you will have many happy years ahead of you! Warm regards, Belinda

  49. Dear Dan,

    I have seen many wonderful people beat cancer this year. I am sure you are the next in line. Stay strong, healthy, honest and don’t eat sugar, if you can avoid it. I don’t know you, but I wish you all the best and send you healing energy and warm, white light. All the best to you. I will be thinking of you and am cheering you on.

    Much love,

    Mia

  50. Dan, All my love. Inspired prayers. A heaping dose of laughter (the best medicine and God knows you have it by the bushel) These are my offerings to you on this beautiful Friday morning. I am sorry my family and I did not make it to Slow Club the other night for the Kerley’s going away party. I heard you were there and looking gorgeous. Thinking of you. Would have loved to see you. Dan, you will beat this bitch!!!!! If anyone can, you can!!!! I believe in you-
    Anna

  51. Looking like a beautiful weekend. Thinking of you and look forward to having some beers together.

  52. Dan – was heartbroken when Cindy told me of your trials. I see you in my mind, with Eric, going to Circus Souleq (sp?) throwing baby Jack back and forth – gorgeous, athletic, funny, fabulous young man. Guess God was watching too, and decided if you had to go thru this, it would be the operable kind, and you’d rise and shine again. I’ve been very involved with Native American Lore (adopted into Lakota Sioux Tribe) and feel comfortable with their simple ways of connecting with the directions, elements, ancestors. I burn sage for you and speak with Wakan Tankan on your behalf. I think he’s the same guy as Jesus, Yaway, all those groovey dudes. They’ll keep an eye on your recovery. My beloved Duane is up there hanging out with cloud horses. I’ve asked him to be in your corner as well. I love you Dan. I’m so relieved to learn that the chemo is working and they’re operate soon and free you from this curse! ANYTIME you want to come hang out in Inverness – there’s a bedroom and bath all yours. Love to have you. xoxoxo Joyce

  53. Dan! Stay positive, as tough as it is. Lots of people are thinking about you and praying for the best. Sending lots of love your way.

  54. Just a Thursday morning greeting to let you know I’m thinking about you today in particular. Sending you sunny thoughts.

    XOXOXO
    Christy

    -matt

  56. Dan — I’m so inspired by your perspective, wit, and positive attitude in the face of this situation. Your website warms the heart, just like all the love that surrounds you.

    Shine on you Crazy Diamond!

    -Jacki

  57. Dan,
    It was so much fun laughing with you the other night. Your high spirits are infectious and I am so amazed by how hard you are kicking this thing in the ass.
    We are thinking of you!
    Jenny

We know your strength is every bit the same as this beautiful wood. Keep up the positive vibes, we are! Can’t wait to see ya this summer. KICK CANCER’S ASS!!!!! Positive Vibes.
    Pix”s of the house are on the way.

    Martha and Rikkkaay

Please know you are in my thoughts & prayers!!! I know you’ll beat this!! My daughter gave me the news & I am in awe over your photos!! HOLLywood Dan!!! You are blessed with good looks & talent!!! HUGS!! and get intouch with me too!! Love you!! Keep up the great spirit!! Lynne.

  60. Hi Dan:

    Just shared a wonderful chat with your Mom. She is such a wonderful prize student and very PROUD Mom. The sunshine is in her spirit today and know that it shines your way. Wishing you, peace, joy and love while you fight the demon called “C”

  61. hi danny, judy here. it’s a beautiful, sunny day here. sunny prayers and thoughts are going your way from me. i spent a good part of yesterday with your mom. we had fun shopping for material and walking the dogs. take care and god bless you.

  62. Dan – keep the faith. Eat your greens and your omegas. I’m honored to be included in your community and moved by your way of telling your story, sharing your experience. Breathe …

  63. How do you make a chemo infusion center into your very own playa? Never mind. Only Dan could do that.

    Incredible and unmatchable spirit.

    Keep it going.

  64. Oh a false clock tries to tick out my time
    To disgrace, distract, and bother me
    And the dirt of gossip blows into my face
    And the dust of rumors covers me
    But if the arrow is straight
    And the point is slick
    It can pierce through dust no matter how thick
    So I’ll make my stand
    And remain as I am

  66. Dear Dan,

    Serious health problems totally suck. The only good side of them is that you learn to appreciate life and health much more than you ever did in the past. We realize how much of it we take for granted. I know this all too well from having had a chronic health issue now for nine years. During that time, I went from being highly productive to disabled to the point of not being able to work. I am dictating this into my iPad and having it convert what I say into text. Furthermore, nobody can come up with a definitive diagnosis. There are plenty of things that look amiss, such as high uranium level in my hair, and strange things in my blood such as antibodies to Lyme bacteria and other co-infections. Also, it looks like Parkinson’s disease according to Parkinson’s doctors. But all of the symptoms ebb and flow and strange things happen, such as skin infections, camps, shaking, rigidity, etc.

    I have a port install now too, for antibiotics.

    I like what you’ve done with your website. I have a blog see address below) chronicling my updates. But it is not as organized as your website, and does not have a guestbook. It probably should. Maybe I will add that.

    Then there is all of the stuff about insurance. I have probably gone about $100,000 out-of-pocket at this point, because my Blue Shield plan does not cover many of the alternative treatments I’ve been trying, even antibiotics with normal medical doctors who are not in the Blue Shield network.

    I encourage you to hang tough. Seems like you are already, and you have good support from Catherine. That’s fantastic! You’re lucky to have company on your journey. I have a lot of other ideas for you coming if you’re interested. Perhaps we should get together. I know your immune system is compromised, so I’m not sure if you’re seeing friends or not, but I would be glad to come over and visit. I have found that keeping the company other people who are going through travails is important to me and helpful. In fact, tonight I go to my monthly Lyme support group over at Kaiser Hospital.

    Drop me a line,
    Bob

  67. Dear Dan,

    I am a friend of Elke, and I believe she introduced us at an event a couple years ago. I’m sorry to hear of your cancer. I have a girlfriend currently in chemo for colon cancer and just sent her this info, so I figured I’d get it to you too. I recommend complimenting your western medicine modalities with some nutrition things that will help you heal better, and more quickly rebuild your health and vitality. I’m a writer and editor, and worked with a raw food chef in 2009 to write a book on diet and lifestyle where I did a lot of research, co-wrote the book, and began experiencing the powerful impact of raw food on the body – in particular raw vegetable juices.

    As part of my research, I looked into Ann Wigmore who was a pioneer in the field of raw food as cancer treatment. Here’s a quick bio for her:
    http://www.raw-living-food-success.com/LivingFoods.html
    And this is her healing center:
    http://www.annwigmore.org/

    I’d recommend that you begin making raw vegetable juices a couple times a week. The key is that the raw vegetable juices are highly alkaline. Sickness, disease, and bad health are always a case of the body being too acidic, so alkalizing it first thing in the morning brings it to a state of balance and healing. As well, raw vegetable juice is loaded with 100% of its enzymes, since it is not cooked or processed. The body not only gets enough nourishment to sustain itself, but extra to rebuild and heal itself at the same time.

    Also, watch the The Gerson Miracle. It’s on Netflix or you can watch it on Hulu for free. It’s a documentary – slightly cheesy here and there – but worth slogging through. The movie is about Dr. Max Gerson who in 1928 discovered a cure for cancer. He was heralded as a genius for a few years until what was becoming big pharma, realized that he would put them out of the cancer business, so then he was discredited. His cure involved vegetable juices and food therapy to successfully treat and cure cancer.

    Here’s wishing you happy juicing, glorious healing, and renewed health and vitality!

  68. Dan, I read through your whole jurnal. You are an amazing person. I am just coming out of a period of being the recipient of a lot of help and want to offer my time to you, if there is anyway I can be of help. Dexter and I make a mean chocolate chip cookie. You are in my thoughts. Xxoo, Alden

  69. Dan! Well SHIT! The past few months have been quite life changing for both of us. I had Henry, A giant baby that wouldn’t come out of me, They had to cut him out. And you had this GOD dam “C” thingy that from the sounds of it, they are going to cut out of you. So we both had things growing inside of us that needed to come out. I have not a shred of doubt that you will survive this and be even stronger, funnier and more brilliant…If possible. I am sorry I missed your benefit and promise to cut your hair for free until you get financially sound again( did you shave it yet?). I am not scared for you because I know you and what you are capable of, and I am always right. you have a tremendous “love bubble” around you, protecting you.. Love you Brother, SO SO SO much! Henry and I wanna visit! xxoo

  70. ahhhh dear dan.
    you sound as full of life and love and spectacular creative power as always, and you’re going to come out the other side of all of this. I heard it in your voice on the phone the other day, and i just know it deep down. in the meantime, take each moment as it comes (something you’ve always been remarkably good at) and soak up all the love that is clearly around you. you’re in my heart.
    xo em

  74. Dan, you lovely, funny, talented, yummy man. So great to get a tiny bit of Dan time when I was in town. Glad to see that even with all this going on you’re still our Dan. This fucker picked the wrong body to try to inhabit. xo.

    And… I hope you got your taxes done! : )

  75. Dearest Dan,

    Sending you all the love and warrior strength I can from Ecuador. It is a hard struggle, but you are young and strong enough to vanquish that sonnuvabitch. I’m so glad you have so many people to be there for you, and just know that I am here for you in spirit. I know a couple shamans down here who have herbs that they’ve used to treat cancer (sucessfully!), so if you’re interested in trying out some really alternative/shamanistic things, let me know. That aside, I’m amassing some really entertaining jokes for us to share in july.

    big hug to you!
    little fink

  76. Hello Dan, Cancer fucking sucks. Very very thankfully I have not had to deal with it in my own body, and my life, like anyone who persists on the planet and gets out at all, has been touched by it. Beat the little bastard, and we will all enjoy each other some more. Thanks! for reaching out! xooxxo

  77. Hi Dan,
    I don’t know you directly but we have a ton of friends in common. Thanks to FB I now find myself here reading your incredible story. I’m pulling for you and sending you lot’s of healing vibes! Look forward to meeting sometime soon! All the best and hang in there– Paul

  78. Dan!
    Thinking about you. Fond memories of your great work in the Dorothy Parker show… your attitude is inspiring and i’m sending you tons of love.
    Jo

  79. Hi Dan,

    I just learned about your site today and am so, SO glad that I get a chance to leave you a personal note. I had lunch with Rena a week or two ago and she shared with me what you have been going through. And I have been wondering how we could help. What could we do. How could we reach out? And here it is! THANK YOU for sharing. You have been on Tim’s and my minds all the time since we found out. We are sending you all the good vibes and well wishes and miracles and love and hugs that we can muster.

  80. It’s been years since I saw you Capt. Dan, and we were both covered in dust in the desert. I just want to say you are the hottest captain of a desert cruising snow cone giving rocket ship that I’ve ever met and I’m sending you tons of love.

  82. Hi Dan,

    I’m not religious, but I can’t help thinking about that poem “Footprints in the Sand”. It’s about a man who looks back on his life, as though it were a long walk on the beach, and occasionally he sees only one set of footprints in the sand. The man angrily says to God, “Those solitary footsteps were the low periods of my life. Why weren’t you there walking next to me?” God replies, “The years when you have seen only one set of footprints is when I carried you.”
    Reading about your current battle and seeing all the comments in this guest book, I imagine your beach covered with hundreds of footprints. We are all helping carry you. And we will continue to shift you from back to back, from arm to arm, and from heart to heart, until you beat this bad bitch into the ground.
    Much love, warmth and strength to you.

  84. Dan – I’m still at Beronio’s. Again, they don’t have 2×6’s. The closest they have are 5 and 1/2 inches wide. Maybe we can glue something together? Let me know.

    Eric

    p.s. If them doctors don’t treat you right, call up Boogah. He knows a guy.

  85. Dan-
    Just want you to know that I’m sending love and supportive kick-that-cancer-bitch-back-down-into-the-earth thoughts from the east coast! You are certainly the one to beat this.
    jen

  86. Hey Dan! You dont know me but I’m a friend of Brady Lea’s and she says you’re aces so that make you supercool in my book. Sorry for the suckiness of being sick. Know that there are lots of strangers out in the world thinking of you constantly. Ok that sounded a little stalkery….But yeah, there is a hulking frizzy haired lumbering sarcastic lady Giants fan in the sunnyside having good thoughts for you. That would be me. I’m going to toss a little paypal love your way and hope that things get sorted out for you as easily and painlessly as possible. I look forward to meeting you, maybe on playa? You can come to our bman camp and borrow my giant’s tutu anytime (black with orange lace, natch).

    May you maintain the effortless grace of timmy’s wind up coupled with the determination of wilson in the bottom of the 9th and the enthusiasm of pablo sandoval facing a platter of carnitas.

    your new friend,

    margaret

  87. hi dan – i don’t know you, but our friend brady is stirring things up

    wishing you courage and fortitude ~ and all love surround you

  88. Hey brother. Thinking of you over here in Croatia. I’ll be back in a week or so. I’ll see you in the shop.

  91. Hi Dan!! We’ve probably met at some point a few years ago- I’m really good friends with Amy G(string)….. Anyhoo- she told me the news and about your blog…and, well…I’m here for you!!

    ~ life is amazing~
    love, Val- nut

  93. hi dan

  95. Dan,
    Just got word today of your adventure of a lifetime.
    Jo and I are sending you much love and support. It was great to see your wonderful face again.
    Being Irish, our families always rely on an old saying at times like this:
    “Is this a private fight, or can anyone get in on it?”
    Count us in.
    Love,
    S&J

  97. Hello Dan,

    I’m Marika Rice’s mom. Just wanted you to know God is still a miracle worker and I’m praying for you everyday, Yes – everyday.

    God Bless You

  98. here’s to returning, increasing, and glowing health. wishing you all that you need to step safely through the morass. sending you a warm blast of stranger love.

  99. Thank you for letting all of us who care about you know what’s going on. A few years ago, my Dad had to compose those kind of messages, and it took him many weeks to get up the nerve. Of course, being an old ad writer, he did them one at a time in Pentel on a pad, which was considerably slower than the modern technology. Plus, knowing how many people love you, you probably would have had to use up a carton of Pentel’s and a pallet-load of yellow pads to use that technique.
    For a while there, you were my single-dad hero, reminding me by example that a man could raise a kid and have fun at the same time. I know both of our boys have had their fuck-up phases, but if you can raise a child to be a good man who loves you, you can do anything. So kick that mother-fucker.
    By the way, my kids are grown now, and I’ve got a van and nothing but free time, so please let me help you out with anything at all.
    -Ian

  100. Captain Dan,
    Martha and I think of you all the time. You are with us, in our thoughts and we love your heartfeltness and the earthiness of who you are, and touched by inventiveness, curiosity and CREATIVITY!!!
    As a cancer survivor I greet you. We are fighting for all of us. I hope to see you at an event soon, coming to our neighborhood.
    Love,
    Karl
