Nakayama Yuma hospitalized

It's amazing in what can happen in a couple of days sometimes. Over the weekend Nakayama Yuma had been hospitalized and even underwent surgery for appendicitis and panperitonitis, which is the inflammation of the appendix. The treatment for appendicitis is to remove the appendix, hence the surgery.

He had gone to the hospital Friday night complaining about stomach pains. He was first sent home but the pains continued through Saturday and it was then he was diagnosed with appendicitis and set for surgery.

Yabu Kota was rushed in from Tokyo to help fill in for Nakayama at the Battery/Gokusen concerts. And while he did not perform Nakayama did make an appearance at the concert but in a wheelchair.

It hasn't been all that great for Kansai Juniors health wise recently. Between this and Nakama Junta injuring his ankle last month at SUMMARY. Hopefully Nakayama will make a speedy recovery but I think it's probably safe to say that even though he might show up for the rest of the concerts this week he won't be performing in them as it takes days to recover.

I'm personally assuming they picked Yabu Kota to fill in for him because for what we know he's not in school, and if he is he would be in college which has a much more flexible schedule than middle and high schools, like the rest of Hey! Say! JUMP and because of his role in Dream Boys he probably has enough solo material to fill the gaps Nakayama's absence has left.
