In February, Coleman canceled his "Danny Go!" tour to care for Isaac after the cancer spread "aggressively." The family shifted to a "comfort-focused approach" last month as treatment options became limited.
Posting on Instagram Friday, the 40-year-old father wrote, "I already miss you so much, and the pain in my heart is far more than I can process." He expressed tremendous pride in Isaac's resilience.
Coleman co-created the popular YouTube series "Danny Go!" which recently moved to Netflix. He and his wife, Mindy Coleman, also share a younger son, Levi, as they navigate this loss.
