In a video uploaded on Friday, the 28-year-old somberly stares at the camera and announces “it’s this sort of video again.” In April 2018, the tech-channel host announced she had a brain tumor (which she named Brian) and if it was unclear if it would end her life. Fans were obviously distraught, flooding her with support while she underwent surgery. Over the next few months, it looked like the tumor was in remission and her health would be in the clear, but the bastard came back. > “When I had brain surgery in May, they removed large portions of the tumor,” she says in the new video. “Something I haven’t talked about is there are still large parts of it left.” She is technically cancer-free, and her doctors felt it was safer to leave part of the tumor where it was “dangerous to perform surgery,” she explained. Giertz thought the tumor might come back, but didn’t expect it to do so only eight months after her initial surgery.
