“And I don’t say that lightly. Behind every episode are real people, real hopes and real hearts.
“What struck me most was the courage of the 14 people who stepped into this process.
“Opening your heart is hard enough.
“Doing it with cameras around, in the hope of finding something real, takes a level of vulnerability I will always respect.
“I’m also deeply grateful for the crew. The long days, the care, the attention to detail, and the way everyone approached these stories with real commitment, it was incredible to witness.
“And to @drlisapaz, my co-expert, who has now become a dear friend.
“I feel very fortunate that we got to walk this together.

He gave fans an update of how she has been getting on, telling followers: “Jill is getting a little stronger each day, and we’re deeply grateful.
“There have been literally thousands of messages. So many that we haven’t been able to respond to everyone, but please know this: we have felt every bit of it.
“Messages from family. Friends. People we’ve met. People we’ve never met. Strangers who somehow made us feel less alone.
“I was at a bakery today, and a woman stopped me to say she had heard about my wife and to please send Jill her love. I don’t even know if she realized how much that meant to me.
“It has been one of the most heartwarming reminders that community is real. That kindness still moves. That people really do care.
“I like to reflect. And honestly, posting has become a kind of journal for me. A place to process life while I’m still inside of it.
“So, for what it’s worth, these are some of the biggest things I’ve been learning while Jill has been recovering.
“This season has reminded me that “in sickness and in health” is not a line to be said lightly.
“That children don’t need to be protected from all of life, they need to be lovingly prepared for it.
“That none of us are built to do life alone. And that the moment we are in will never come again.
“Thank you for loving my family. We have felt it more than you know.”
