You have to see it to believe it. Brazilian Anthony Kulkamp Dias played guitar and sang to stay awake during part of the procedure to remove a tumor from his brain. He needed to stay awake so that doctors could map his brain and avoid serious neurological damage.
The song Dias picked? “Yesterday,” by The Beatles. At least he was able to keep his sense of humor throughout.
