Finally, some good news: Internet meme-god Stefán Karl Stefánsson of LazyTown has beat cancer (for now). The Icelandic actor has had a lengthy battle with the disease, and Reddit communities such as r/dankmemes have been rooting for him the whole way. Just over a month ago the outlook on his illness was grim, so this news has been met with much jubilation.
While the prognosis is unclear the metastases have been removed but return) we're still over the moon. Here are some of our favorite celebratory memes - we wish Stefán a healthy future!

This is one of those stories where you don't know if you should feel sad or grossed out.
A man in China has married a realistic sex doll because he has terminal cancer and wants to feel the joy of marriage without leaving behind a grieving widow.
The 28-year-old man has not yet been identified, but some are suggesting this could all just be a marketing stunt.
Nevertheless, the (happy?) couple had one beautiful wedding photo shoot...
We wish the couple much happiness. And the man many nights of fapping.

This is what you call commitment to a cause.
A Texas man who doctor's say should have already died is hanging on as long as he can just to watch Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
Daniel Fleetwood, 32, suffers from a connective tissue cancer. His doctor's gave him two months to live back in July, but he is fighting to make it at least to the Dec. 18 release of the film.
"Judging by how progressive the disease has gotten in the past two months, I really don't think that I'll be able to make it," he told KPRC.
JJ: I'm not asking you to let the world see TFA early. Just do it for one person - Daniel. #ForceForDaniel pic.twitter.com/FohLdn1pux
— Andrew Lupi (@ALupi15) November 3, 2015The hashtag #ForceForDaniel has been started to encourage the franchise to set up a special screening for Fleetwood ahead of the worldwide premiere.
Star Wars stars Mark Hamill and John Boyega have both been retweeting messages in support of the campaign.
