Youtuber Philipp Mickenbecker makes cancer diagnosis public
At the end of 2020, Mickenbecker made his cancer diagnosis public in a video: He had lymph gland cancer. His tumor was already in the terminal stages, he said. His doctor gave him two weeks to two months to live.
It was not his first battle with cancer: Mickenbecker had survived the tumor twice. Cancer was no longer an issue for three years. The Youtuber was very religious. His twin brother Johannes talks about the last few hours on the YouTube channel “Life Lion”: “He said he was looking forward to Jesus. He knows where he’s going. “
Actor Samuel Koch shared a picture on his Instagram account: “Thank you, Philipp! You are a role model! “One fan wrote:” What impresses me most is that he has never lost his smile. “(Kathrin Rosendorff with dpa)
