RFK Jr. Says A Worm Ate Part Of His Brain
HuffPost
A report says the independent presidential candidate and noted conspiracy theorist was told by doctors he had a dead parasite inside his head.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. says doctors once told him a suspected brain tumor was actually a dead worm.
In a 2012 deposition reported on by The New York Times Wednesday, Kennedy explained how he sought medical care after suffering memory loss and mental fogginess in 2010. The independent presidential candidate was scheduled for a medical procedure after a brain scan revealed a dark spot showing up.
However, prior to the procedure, Kennedy said a doctor from a NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital called and told him that he believed the dark spot was something else — a dead parasite inside Kennedy’s head.
Kennedy said in the deposition, which was given as part of divorce proceedings, that he was told the spot on the scan “was caused by a worm that got into my brain and ate a portion of it and then died.”
