WATCH : Cancer patient records heartbreaking video good-bye
Be forewarned: This isn’t a video with an uplifting ending. The final piece of Eric McLean’s five-year video blog, titled “Eric’s Confession Final,” is a candid, heart-wrenching message that will almost certainly make you cry. However, along with the tears it will also give you a better appreciation of just how exceptionally brave this 28-year-old is. The resident of Two Rivers, Wis., has spent half a decade battling acute myelogenous leukemia, which returned after he’d beaten it as a teen. In his final goodbye, he confesses he is scared but also notes how grateful he is to everyone and how much love he feels. Blessings on your journey, Eric.
