Here's what he had to say:

"I was sick for five to six years. From 19 pretty much to 26... And on top of that, I had those lung collapses, which also prevented me from doing what I wanted to do. Any sports out the window. Anything athletic out the window."

His condition was so severe that he was not allowed to participate in sports, or even dance, as it put just too much strain on his lungs, and could even cause them to collapse.

However, the Twitch streamer is happy to share that he is currently a lot better and that these issues are hopefully a thing of the past now:

"I’m so happy to say I’m over all that s--t, bro. I’ve been doing so many things that I used to do, and I’m genuinely happy now."

It is certainly quite exciting for fans, and from the looks of it, he will most likely be streaming regularly.
