Eddie Participa de Evento Beneficente

Semana passada, Eddie Vedder, juntamente com a sua esposa Jill, visitaram um instituto que cuida de crianças com a doença conhecida como Epidermólise bolhosa, responsável por causar bolhas na pele e em mucosas, e ainda tocou três covers junto com a banda Big Daddy Sunshine. Abaixo um comentário do Eddie sobre a visita (em inglês), e algumas fotos:

"The EB fundraiser in San Jose was a smaller, grassroots event, but the impact of meeting these incredible kids and their parents was huge. I’ve only been aware of this disease for a few years and not many people are currently aware of it, though it affects one in every 50,000 children. Because of major advances in stem cell research, the non-controversial kind, it appears that a cure could someday be a reality. But only if the good doctors and researchers can acquire further funding, whether privately or through our government."
