p sure it's a noncancerous tumor, but she hasn't discussed it much (if at all)

My buddy has a non-cancerous brain tumor but it often plays with his hormones and causes his eye to bulge and lose vision so they can be quite nasty even without cancer. The medicine to keep it from growing also makes you lethargic and asexual. That's why I was curious. It can be rough on a person

Well, mostly. I seem to recall that she had a recurrence about a year ago or so (pre-edit, 2019 specifically per her wiki page, I'm getting old). But I've been watching her for a while and she seems to still be active and making good videos, so yeah good news I reckon.
