I just heard about Rick Genest's death and I'm so sad about it. When he was young, he had a brain tumor and was told he would have to get surgery that would disfigure him for life. Later, he found out that he could get a laser procedure done and he was one of only 2 people in North America to survive that procedure.
He died yesterday by suicide, which devastates me.
He loved when people stared at him and he said he accomplished his goal of becoming a "freak." I've always been so inspired by his creativity and spirit. In my past tattoo posts, I talk about him a lot and he definitely influenced to be more myself.

It is wonderful that he was able to inspire so many people with his creative spirit. I am so sorry for the loss you are experiencing now. It truly is a tragedy.
