Lars Ulrich took some time recently to virtually meet with a 2-year-old Metallica fan battling cancer.

Ulrich shared stills and video from the meeting via Instagram, which also included the very young fan’s family. He captioned the moment with the following:

“Grateful to have one of our youngest fans, 2-year-old Milan, his mom Catherine, dad Yannick and siblings Coralie and Loïc as part of the Metallica Family. So touched that our music makes a difference through these challenging times for all of you. Loved connecting via Zoom – sending much love to you all as well as Dr. Goloff and your medical team from here in San Francisco.”

You can see the stills and video below.
