Thank You From Alex Trebek | JEOPARDY!
“Hi everyone, I just want to take a few moments to say thanks to the – believe it or not – hundreds of thousands of people who have sent in tweets, texts, emails, cards and letters wishing me well following my recent health announcement. I’ve heard from former contestants – even Watson, the IBM computer, sent me a get-well card.
Now obviously, I won’t be able to respond to all of you individually, but I do want you to know that I do read everything I receive. And I am thankful for the kind words, the prayers and the advice you have offered, and I’m extremely touched by the warmth you have expressed in your comments to me. I’m a lucky guy.”

God bless you Alex!!??? FIGHT
I’m still praying heavily for you everyday!❤️
We love you Mr. Trebek, we will watch you fight this. You will overcome this minor obstacle in your long life. My thoughts and prayers go out to you.
Minor?
+Cody Clanton You clearly don’t understand the level of power Trebek has. A nuke doesn’t leave a scratch on the man’s face, so what would cancer be able to do to him?
+Skeebeep Boopeepeep kill him
+SkullGhost Your negativity is not needed here
Love you man!!! Hope you’re doing much better!!! No one else can be Jeopardy!!!!❤️
So many prayers sent out to you Alex ?????????? you can beat this
All he do is hope is lengthy hard fought battle. Unfortunately it’s Stage 4 of one the worst form of cancer. Our prayers our with him.
Alex Trebek….truly one of the best that humanity has offered to this planet.
+KaneRobot ……shut up douchebag!
KaneRobot If you know anything about him and his work you know that he truly is an amazing person.
Him and Pat
Because he hosted a game show? lmao nevermind all the people out there helping the less fortunate, risking their life every day, etc etc. What are you, 14?
It is because he is famous. People tend to blindly follow celebrities without thought
You’re not in this alone, Mr. Trekbek. We’re all here for you.
amen
Trekbek
Honestly I’ve accidentally disliked videos before people were probably too lazy to fix it
Thanks so much Alex. You are such a thoughtful and downright awesome human being.
+Kevin Zhou no….it’s called showing compassion to my fellow human being. Try it sometime.
+Kevin Zhou Because we don’t know how much longer they’re going to be around for, so we want to tell them how we feel before we lose that chance. Also, we just care about Alex and want him to know that, especially in this time.
+Sean Colyer Even when its someone that you see frequently like a classmate or coworker, they’ll be treated just like anyone else, but then if something happens to them all of a sudden everyone has so much love and admiration for that person…its totally dumb human irrationality and this comment section is a prime example.
+riley h You wanna kiss my ass? Try it sometime.
+No If he’s smart then he knows you only partially mean it.
Best wishes, Trebek! We’re praying for you.
I just have a question. Who would dislike this video?
So positive and yet someone dislikes it.
What is someone who missed the button Alex.
+Charlotte Larson fun fact: they offered the show to art before asking trebek. Art didn’t want to do it.
+Winslow I did not know that. His loss is our gain.
Sean Connery.
Sweetie, let me tell you about internet trolls.
They exist.
We’re the lucky ones that you have always been yourself. Life is worth fighting for. Cheers to you, good sir.
Alex Trebek you are truly one of a kind and you’re in my prayers. Keep fighting
This man is going to beat cancer.
Who is Alex Trebek?
You got this man, we love ya!
+Buffalol you’re right. I misread the parts where it was talking about the factors, like age overall health and when you’re diagnosed. “The median survival rate for stage 4 pancreatic cancer is between two and six months. Though the disease cannot be cured at this stage, treatment may improve your quality of life.” Damn
not sure that’s helpful. Pancreatic cancer generally kills no matter how hard someone fights.
Hahahahah. Your heart
is in the right place even though your intelligence isn’t. We should all thanks Alex i suppose for hosting a televised game show for decades. And hope that his journey to the end is painless and with love
+Jim Bob he’s keeping it real. Not to be a Debbie Downer but its a FACT, ONLY 1% survive after 5 years!… 1%! Its a death sentence. Period! If Patrick Swayze couldn’t beat it and he was in Prime physical shape and 30 years younger, I doubt Alex is going to be able to… sobering reality folks! Sorry?
Alex is a class act. Great guy. Get well soon Mr. Trebek.
Been watching Jeopardy ever since I was little. Thank you for your constant hard work. Sending wishes your way ❤️
I suspect Alex Trebek has never needed to be reminded to send Thank You cards.
Alex, I am wishing the best for you.
Cancer doesn’t know who it’s up against. Give it hell Alex!
You got this. Best wishes from an 8-year cancer survivor.
SALUTE AND A BLESSED LIFE AHEAD OF YOU!
???????????
Trebek is the only one strong enough to beat Thanos in April…
Get him to team up with Kebert Xela, from that other dimension.
