Blink 182’s drummer Travis Barker reached out to a young cancer patient via twitter.

Joseph Parker, a 24-year-old man submitted a thread to Reddit titled “I have Stage IV pancreatic cancer. I’m in a hospice and am going to die. Ask me anything!” Billboard reported.

A user asked him, “If one miracle could happen before you passed, what would you want?” according to Much Music Parker responded with, “To have Tom DeLonge or Mark Hoppus or Travis Barker speak to me, whether through twitter or whatever it may be.”

Parker set up a twitter account @pancreaticstg4 to talk about his final days, gathering 2,000 followers in the process. Barker reached out to the New Yorker with a Tweet offering “love and prayers,” after learning about Parker from his followers.

Blink 182 recently auctioned off items such as a bass signed by Mark Hoppus, a pair of shoes signed by Mark Hoppus, a limited edition painted bunny among other items for victims in Oklahoma. They also have items for sale on their merchandise website.
