Lex "RaSZi" Veldhuis Returns On Twitch After Health Issues And Proposal

The night before a Meet & Greet event he collapsed on the street, and he had to stop his trip early. He had everything looked into by the doctors, took the rest he needed, and proposed to his girlfriend last weekend! She said "yes", and the other good news is, that he is returning to his Twitch channel today.

Three days later, the good news was there: everything was fine, and he announced to start streaming again on Tuesday, November 13:

TL;DW: Good news. No heart issues. Extensive testing showed everything is healthy.

Last weekend he flew to Prague for preparation. And for good reason, as he went on one knee for his girlfriend as he asked her in marriage on her birthday. Her answer speaks for itself:

Picture of me and my fiancée on her birthday. Daaamn that sounds niice. #❤️❤️ https://t.co/nxKx62TWz0
