Hello, my friends. My name is Reuben Christopher Haynes. Today is April 18th, 2025. I didn’t want to post a weight update today. Instead, I want to speak about something more personal—something that has deeply affected my family over the past two months.

My youngest nephew, Gabriel Haynes, has cancer. He’s been battling it for several months now, and sadly, his condition is worsening. He’s already undergone two rounds of chemotherapy in Monterrey, Mexico, but unfortunately, they were ineffective. He is currently receiving treatment in Edinburg, Texas.

As of today, things are not improving. I just spoke with my brother, and the news was difficult. Please keep Gabriel and our family in your thoughts and prayers.

They are beginning a new round of treatment this weekend. If there is no sign of improvement, the next step may involve transporting Gabriel to the Houston area, where there are more advanced cancer treatment centers. If that happens, the entire family may need to relocate. Treatment could last up to three years.

This will be a tremendous burden, emotionally and financially—but we are prepared to do whatever it takes to keep Gabriel alive. The family is united in this fight.

As for me, personally, the past few months have been both challenging and revealing. I now have regular income, some financial stability, and a few clients—but for the past six weeks, my focus has been entirely on supporting my family. I’ve been keeping in close contact with my brothers and staying updated on Gabriel’s condition.

It's hard—but my spirit remains strong. Things are going well in my life overall, and there are many new opportunities on the horizon.

I just wanted to give everyone a short update. More videos and content will return soon, but right now—family comes first. This is a moment to reflect on what truly matters. Be grateful for what you have. Let go of old grudges. Reconnect with those you’ve lost touch with.

As we head into the summer of 2025, I don’t want another "summer of love" in name only—I want a summer of real peace and genuine opportunity. We must rise above who we’ve been and strive to become something greater.

That is my goal this summer: to live as a man of love, of faith, and of service to others. Let’s walk that path together.

So please, keep in your heart not just Gabriel, but all those battling cancer, those suffering from PTSD, and survivors of assault. Let’s lift up the brokenhearted, the forgotten, and those in pain.

Pray for them. Wish them well. And if you can—reach out to someone. Let them know you care.

I care about all of you. Thank you for taking the time to listen. More updates and videos will come soon, but right now, I must care for my family.

Family comes first.

Take care, everyone. Talk to you soon. Have a great day.

Goodbye for now.
