Supper Mario Broth is a social media legend. Since 2016, they’ve been on a mission to bring the weirdest and most wonderful Mario facts to light. While they focus heavily on bizarre glitches, their blog also spotlights old, forgotten memorabilia, marketing materials, and other miscellaneous Super Mario facts we almost certainly never knew about.
In a new post shared on social media, Supper Mario Broth shared some bad news: they are “experiencing a sudden rush of serious health issues,” including heart failure. As they did when life previously got in the way, they’ve vowed to continue running their blog for as long as it’s feasibly possible.
Supper Mario Broth Will Continue Fighting Despite Heart Failure And Retinopathy Diagnoses
In 2024, Supper Mario Broth showed there was still good in humanity. Following the sudden, devastating passing of this mother, the blogger revealed they would have to quit posting. They made a little money from the Supper Mario Broth blog, but most of their income came from caring for their mother; that was now suddenly gone. At the worst time of their lives, Mario Broth’s Patreon grew from a couple hundred subscribers to thousands, and they could keep doing what they loved.
Just over two years on from that, Supper Mario Broth has been dealt another major blow, being diagnosed with a range of awful health conditions.
They detail that, despite living a healthy lifestyle, they’ve been diagnosed with a hereditary form of heart failure, giving them a roughly 66 percent chance of surviving past one year. Complications from the heart failure have left them with retinopathy, meaning their eyesight is deteriorating, and they will likely require surgery. They say that, “being able to see well is fundamental to my ability to both myself research Mario games and compile the discoveries of others,” meaning their work running the blog may be affected. They add that further health-related episodes may create gaps in content.
Always a beacon of positivity, Mario Broth falls back on a previous pledge, saying it’s still relevant: “I will continue running Supper Mario Broth for as long as I am physically able to,” adding that this is not a request for any help or support.
Supper Mario Broth is one of the most wholesome, informative, and interesting accounts on social media, and it sucks to see them face further hardship. Thoughts go out to them from everybody at TheGamer.
