00:07 If I have more pain, if I die later today or tomorrow,
00:12 it's a win.
00:14 Stay present with that.
00:16 Do what you need to feel alive
00:19 So there's this soul, a dear, blessed, loving soul
00:23 named Ethan Sisser.
00:25 He's 36.
00:26 He was diagnosed with glioblastoma.
00:29 He started documenting his journey
00:31 on Facebook, TikTok, YouTube.
00:34 Doctors said there's nothing they can do,
00:36 the chemo can't help.
00:37 Not doing the chemo, nothing would change either.
00:40 What's going to happen next is I'm going to keep a smile in my heart.
00:44 One thing I would love is a strong support system.
00:46 I feel like it could be beautiful for everyone involved.
00:49 I don't know if anybody's ever done it in terms of how you're doing it.
00:52 We all are born, we all leave the body,
00:55 so why not do it in the most beautiful way possible?
01:00 I'm trying to medically find a way to where he can be comfortable
01:03 in a home setting.
01:04 I am embodied.
01:06 I am empowered.
01:07 I am ecstatic.
01:12 Mind if I get this off my chest nice?

01:28 It's a journey with him,
01:31 and I can only go so far.
01:33 [music]
01:39 My sense of Ethan's state of being
01:43 fills this whole area.
01:46 [music]
01:57 He called for a family,
02:00 and this family showed up.
02:03 [music]
02:11 Can death be fun?
02:13 I mean, that could be the most exciting journey ever.
