Leave it to Ellen DeGeneres to make us break out in happy tears once again!

As you can see in this touching story, Ellen loves nothing more than helping out those who need it most. Unlike most talk show hosts, who only like to bring in the usual celebrity guests to get their ratings up, Ellen realizes that regular folks usually have the very best stories to tell!

That’s why when Ellen met 32-year-old comedian Quincy Jones and learned his dream of performing in his own special, the comedy queen knew she had to do something to help.

Last year, Quincy Jones received some devastating news when he was diagnosed with stage IV mesothelioma and doctors said he had roughly one year to live. This past January, Jones went public with his terminal cancer diagnosis, when a friend helped him create this Kickstarter campaign to help the young comedian fulfill his dream.

As of March 18th, 2016, just over 1,200 backers raised more than $50,000 for the campaign, but that was only part of the problem. So Ellen brought Jones on her show, where she revealed that she had been working on a little something of her own. When Ellen tells Jones to get ready to appear on his own HBO comedy special, his amazing reaction says it all!

Our prayers are with you, Quincy – and we can’t wait to tune in!
