Ironmouse Gains Praise For New Twitch Achievement
Ironmouse’s supporters and others have come out of the woodwork to congraulate the streamer in her impressive achievement. Twitch issued a tweet highlighting her accomplishment, while Cenat himself tweeted an image of the iconic number after it had been surpassed. Many brought attention to the fact that Ironmouse will be donating half the proceeds of this subathon to the Immmune Deficiency Foundation, which is “dedicated to improving diagnosis, treatment, and quality of life” for those impacted by immunodeficiency.
This intent to donate highlightsIronmouse’s success, as she struggles with an immunodeficiency disorder herself called CVID, or common variable immune deficiency. Immunodeficiency disorders make it so that the body’s immune system doesn’t behave correctly, which can make even minor illnesses or infections a life-threatening hazard to those impacted. At its worst, Ironmouse was completely isolated within her home, and looked to streaming as a way of reconnecting with the outside world. Thankfully, her health has improved over the years as her streaming earnings have allowed her to get better health care.
While the final amount her donation will equal to remains to be seen, the money and attention being brought to an important cause is a good thing. Cenat’s followers are already cheering on the streamer to take back hisTwitch record, so it will be interesting to watch these two as their careers unfold on the streaming service.
