He was diagnosed with hydrocephalus and a brain tumor and received two major brain surgeries, one of which left him blind. Tristan didn’t let that bring him down he continued his music career with these health issues, never losing faith, and worked hard to show the world that with God he could conquer anything he put his mind to. He continues to spread awareness for hydrocephalus and brain tumors.
Ramos released his second album, Mediante, in 2021 with 16 songs. He is currently working on his third album with his brothers Dylan and Mason.
