A popular children’s YouTuber known as Danny Go! revealed on Friday that his 14-year-old son has died.<\/p>\n

Daniel Coleman, the creator and main character in the popular program, posted on Instagram<\/a> that his son, Isaac Coleman, lost his battle with cancer on Thursday.<\/p>\n

“Oh my sweet boy. There\u2019s so much I want to say, but I don\u2019t know how yet. I already miss you so much, and the pain in my heart is far more than I can process,” he began his message alongside photos of his son.<\/p>\n

Isaac, who had Fanconi anemia, “an inherited condition that happens when certain genes mutate” and can cause physical differences or blood disorders, was diagnosed in December with cancer in his mouth.<\/p>\n

“TBH, we always knew this day was coming, as it\u2019s a near certainty w\/ Fanconi anemia. But it\u2019s definitely hitting a little earlier than we hoped and is still just such a shocking thing to hear about your child, even if you\u2019ve braced for it for years,” Coleman wrote on social media at the time of the diagnosis. <\/p>\n

According to the Cleveland Clinic<\/a>, Fanconi anemia “increases your risk of cancerous tumors.”<\/p>\n

Coleman had been documenting Isaac’s battle with cancer, revealing in late April that the teen was on hospice care.<\/p>\n

“Mindy and I are heartbroken watching him decline, knowing how frustrating and scary this must be for him. But we\u2019re trying to hold it all together & keep soaking up the time we still have with our boy,” he wrote at the time. <\/p>\n

Coleman, who has more than 4.7 million followers on YouTube, had canceled his latest tour in February to spend time with his family. <\/p>\n

In his tribute to his son, Coleman wrote that looking through photos and videos of his last week of life filled him “with tremendous pride.” <\/p>\n

“Your 14 years were full of so many challenges, but you met them all with such grit\u2026and you somehow kept your trademark joy in spite of it all. You truly had a spark like no other, Isaac! Remembering how loved you were and how full of life your time here was gives me great comfort. Being your dad was the honor of a lifetime. I\u2019m so proud of you and I love you forever. Rest peacefully, son,” he wrote.<\/p>\n
