Wesley Safadão Says Son’s Head Tumor Was Removed During DVD Taping Week

Medical reassurance led him to delay the recording to 3:30 a.m. to accommodate travel to the hospital.

Overview

  • Safadão recounted that his 14-year-old son, Yhudy, needed surgery after sudden severe pain and a barber’s difficulty cutting his hair prompted urgent exams.
  • Doctors scheduled the operation for midday, and by about 5 p.m. Safadão says his son was already recovering in his hospital room.
  • The singer shifted his DVD recording from midnight to 3:30 a.m., flew from São Paulo to Pernambuco to perform, then returned to the hospital.
  • He says the procedure was successful with no sequelae reported, and Yhudy was discharged the following Monday and has since returned to school.
  • One outlet identified the condition as Langerhans cell histiocytosis, a detail not broadly corroborated across the reporting.
