Sandra Araya, the wife of Slayer’s Tom Araya, has updated fans about the condition of her husband who was hospitalised in Sydney on Sunday forcing the cancellation of the Slayer performance at Soundwave.
Sandra posted on Facebook, “TOM'S HEALTH... He was suffering from VERTIGO due to EXTREME DEHYDRATION - AND LACK OF REST! Our Doctor is in the process of getting the results on the test that were ran (major time zone difference and being the weekend has held up those results) Hopefully there will be nothing more to add after the results are returned =)”.
Tom was rushed to hospital on Sunday afternoon forcing the cancellation of Slayer’s gig just 5 minutes before the band was due on stage. He spent the night in hospital.
The following day promoter AJ Maddah tweeted that Tom had a “severe ear infection”.
The next scheduled performance for Slayer is this Friday in Melbourne. According to Maddah, Slayer will perform.
