As is well known, the topic of streamers was quite fashionable on streaming platforms a few years ago. Twitch, a site that grew with these types of creators who weren’t limited to just leaving videos published on a website, but directly communicating with those who use their work. Inside it is a boy named Charidiki Tyler Blevinsbetter known as the ninjaMade a name for himself by broadcasting his games FortniteAs it is part of the competitive battle royale community Epic Games.
However, despite always earning thousands of dollars from donations from followers or winning tournaments, things were not perfect for the young man, because for a few weeks people felt that he was mysterious and somewhat removed from the network, since I no longer streamed like before. And just a few hours ago he revealed the reason behind the behavior, with news that was not seen coming and must be treated with the greatest possible care.
through social networks, the ninja He commented that he was suffering from a type of cancer Melanoma:

Well, I’m still a bit in shock, but I want to keep you all updated. A few weeks ago I went to a dermatologist for an annual skin and mole exam that Jess proactively scheduled for me. I had a mole on the bottom of my leg that they wanted to remove just as a precaution. It came back as melanoma, but they’re hopeful we caught it early. Another dark spot appeared nearby, so today they did a biopsy and removed a larger area around the melanoma in hopes that under the microscope they would see clear edges that were not melanoma and we would know we had it. I appreciate the hope of finding it sooner, but take this as a public service announcement (PSA) to get your skin checked.
For those who don’t have it in mind, melanoma is a type of skin cancer that starts in melanocytes. Melanocytes are the cells that produce the pigment that gives the skin its color. The pigment is called melanin and is usually found in sun-exposed skin, but it can appear in the eyes or rarely inside the body. Fortunately, they detected the disease in Ninja at an early stage, so they have already started treatment to put some brakes on it.
With this in mind, the streamer invites her followers to undergo an annual medical check-up to avoid future complications.
Editor’s note: It’s unbelievable how people who take good care of themselves can suffer from this serious condition. I hope they find a way to counteract this and bring the boy back to normal.
