==History==
===Early Life===
Aaron is an avid singer and performs at night. These moments allow him to express his real feelings, because spends all day making himself smaller, knowing he's too big, physically and emotionally, thereby tending to hide his real emotions. At some point in his life, Aaron met Jeffrey and they developed a romantic relationship.
===Hospitalization===
Upon noticing he lost his complete upper register, he and Jeffrey came to the ER to find out what was wrong. As the ER was busy and no one paid immediate attention to him, he started singing loudly to make the doctors hear him and to make them understand the seriousness of the problem.
After some initial exams, Drs. Altman, Yang, and Karev found a malignancy on his left lung, which turned out to be pleural mesothelioma, a cancer surrounding the lining of his lung. Upon hearing that in the worst case scenario, his lung would have to be removed, Aaron stated that he rather die than lose his lung, and thus the ability to continue singing.
===Surgery===
During surgery, Teddy found that removing the lung would provide the biggest chance of survival, but because of his statement, she decided to remove the visible tumor and treat him with intrapleural hyperthermic therapy.
Alex informed Jeffrey post-op that Aaron should be fine.
