HR to Undergo Brain Surgery This Month
We are wishing the legendary HR of Bad Brains the best of luck on his brain surgery later this month. HR has a rare type of headache called SUNCT aka “Suicide Syndrome.” “The headaches come randomly, with no warning, at all hours of the day and night; but for him, they are much worse at night,” H.R.’s caregiver shared. “The intensity of the nighttime headaches is so great that he yells, cries out, groans, and sobs—repeatedly, every few minutes, for most of the night. He can’t work. He has no quality of life. If you call him and ask how he is, he will say, ‘Everything’s okay,’ because that’s just how he is. But everything is not okay.”
