Brock Mealer Prepares To Walk Down The Aisle At His Wedding
Dec. 22, two days before the five-year anniversary of the night the lives of Brock Mealer and his entire family changed, he will get married.
He met Haley Frank less than two years ago after escorting her to a fundraiser at a Fricker's restaurant for a young cancer patient. At that point, Mealer was invited to attend all sorts of events to tell his story or to just be there as a source of inspiration.
But this one, he didn't want to attend alone. So he picked Haley up at her house, entering into a relationship that has led him to this point.

Good for him. I recall being in attendence when he walked out to touch the banner before the UConn game. Luckily, I didn't need to pay extra for the tears in my eyes.

I was just thinking the same thing. The atmosphere in the Big House when he walked onto the field was my best experience there so far, bar none. Unforgettable. Way to go Brock!!!

Thanks much for posting. I really appreciate reading this. With the kickstarter campaign for the magazine, I opted for the 1% Mealer T-shirt. It is truly an inspiring story.

Pretty impressive stuff. Also, I'll be the one to say it. His wife is pretty easy on the eyes.

You know, October has been an awful month for my allergies. I see stories like this one and I have to take more antihistamines as well as drops for my eyes.
Seriously though, this is another awesome chapter in this great story. Brock has perservered through so much, and to see him take this step should make every Wolverine smile. I wish him nothing but the best.

met him at the Notre Dame, he was super nice because I'm pretty sure I came off as a stalker, but he was willing to take a photo!
