Brian's mom was a groupie.

Yeah, I've been trying to sort of not talk much about this because it was such a serious thing, and I don't want at any point anyone to think that I'm somehow...

using this experience for anything because it was awful and it was a few days after my own father had passed away of a bleed in his head which is exactly what this kid suffered on the football field and to make a long story short I saw a commotion on the sideline so I just broke into a spring.

It can be an aneurysm.

That's another way to get it.

Blunt trauma is the other way, and this is obviously blunt trauma.

He was on blood thinners, and it's what's called an intracranial bleed.

It's little tiny vessels in the brain.

And you get a rather a sclerosis, and things that might have been a little bleed become massive bleeds when you have thinners.

And so I saw a commotion.

I saw several kids panicking.

And I thought, I've never seen that before.

And I could see somebody laying down.

So I just broke into a sprint.

At my son's football game.

We were going to have a nice day out trying to deal with grandpa's passing.

And then this, I'm running across the field full sprint thinking, oh, my God, not a bleed.

Come on.

It'll be a neck, something, anything, just a concussion.

and get over there and find one of their friends, my son Stan.
