Did Eddie Van Halen Cure Himself Of Cancer?

He's one of the best guitar players on the planet...but did he cure himself of cancer? I knew he was a bit of a kook, but...Sammy Haggar, who left the band years ago and MIGHT still be a lil bitter, has a new tell-all book coming out, and he's not holding back. Blabbermouth reports that Hagar says in 2004 when the he met at Eddie's house to discuss the Van Halen reunion tour, "He finally invited me over to this giant, extravagant house that he and Valerie (Bertinelli) had built before she split. It looked like vampires lived there. There were bottles and cans all over the floor. The handle was broken off the refrigerator door. There were spider webs everywhere. . . He told me he cured himself by having pieces of his tongue liquefied and injected into his body. He also told me when he had his hip replacement, he stayed awake through the operation and helped the doctors drill a hole. What a fruitcake." The book is called Red - My Uncensored
