It has been around two years since Relative Race’s Dan J. Debenham was diagnosed with Stage 4 Prostate Cancer.
Since he revealed his diagnosis, he has given a few positive updates on his health. And today, he shared another one.
“Stage 4 cancer doesn’t have a chance with me,” he said. “Really it’s because of, as my doctors are now kind of carefully admitting. They said, ‘We can’t explain what is going on with you medically, but sometimes there are other things that take place.’ Well, thanks to you, your prayers, your thoughts, I have received all of that over the last couple of years. My cancer continues to be reduced in my body, and everything else is getting stronger. So they don’t have an explanation for it. But I do. Can you say thank you, Relative Race fans?”
We say you are welcome, but we also thank you for bringing so much joy and positivity into our homes. We are grateful you will continue to do so for years to come!

BYU picked up Relative Race for a 13th season. And today, they announced that the new season will premiere on St. Patrick’s Day.
Relative Race is my favorite competition series because it is all heart.
It is about four teams driving around the country, meeting relatives they have never met before.
Most of the contestants are adopted, so they are meeting siblings and their biological parents for the first time, along with other family members. If that doesn’t make you cry, you have no heart.
Plus, Dan Debenham is the most caring host on TV.
We need more wholesome television like this.
If you are looking for something to watch, you can binge the first 12 seasons on BYU TV for free.

Relative Race’s Dan Debenham gives a positive update on his cancer battle |

Last September, Relative Race’s Dan Debenham announced that he has been battling stage IV prostate cancer for almost a year. Yet, he continued to work on the BYU TV game show, which is about bringing families together through DNA.
Today, the beloved host gave an update on his cancer. “Actually, it was just this past Tuesday that I went in for a PET scan,” he said. “And we got the news that we had all been hoping for, praying for, and I want to share it with everybody. Because you have given me strength. And that is the doctors read the report and quote, ‘Patient shows a significant decrease in cancers throughout his body.'”
Then he added, “I believe in miracles, and they’re taking place. I believe I have a long future ahead of me. And it will always involve Relative Race.”
I will continue to pray his cancers continue to decrease and that he will be hosting Relative Race (my favorite reality show) for decades to come.
Relative Race airs Sundays at 8p ET/5p PT.

There are so many Reality Shows on television these days, but very few of them are feel-good ones. The best one of them all is Relative Race, and today BYU TV announced that season 12 will debut on September 17th.
The competition series, which is hosted by Dan Debenham, has four teams racing to meet family members they never met, like possibly their parents and siblings.
So every episode leaves happy tears in your eyes because imagine finally meeting the family you always wanted to know. And then having them wanting to be in your life too. I am already getting emotional just thinking about it.
If you have never seen an episode, you can watch all of them on the BYU TV app for free.
