YouTuber Brandon Buckingham
In ICU for Organ Failure
…Following Mental Helath Struggle
YouTuber and musician Brandon Buckingham has revealed he’s been admitted to the ICU for multiple organ failure.
Brandon had told fans Wednesday doctors thought he had tuberculosis, septic pneumonia, and/or liver failure … and asked them to pray for him. He also shared a photo of himself looking frail with a nasal cannula — tubing used to deliver oxygen to the nostrils.
Earlier in November, he posted a snapshot of himself in a hospital bed. He did not reveal what landed him in the hospital, but told followers he has been discharged and that his “condition seems to have stabilized.”
Weeks before in September, Brandon addressed those worried about him for keeping to himself and not answering his texts and calls. He noted he was dealing with some mental health-related struggles … while simultaneously announcing the death of his grandmother.
Brandon gained popularity by interviewing random people on the street throughout America and has amassed 1.21 million subscribers on YouTube. His last video was a documentary filmed in Lebanon about the “homeless child epidemic in the Middle East.”
