Recently I had the chance to help fulfill a young man's dream when I met and jammed with Brian Mammen - an 18-year old cancer patient in San Dimas, CA.
Having children of my own, it really makes me realize how blessed I've been in my life when I hear about someone so young with such a terrible affliction. When
Helping Heroes asked me to help fulfill one of Brian's dreams to meet and jam with a member of Van Halen, I was more than happy to make it happen!
We hung out, jammed and had a great time together. I would like to wish Brian and his family all the best. Brian is one brave and courageous person - you rock, Brian!
More pictures from the day will be posted at
