Mandi Schwartz, the sister of 2010 NHL first-round draft choice
Jaden Schwartz, is preparing for her toughest battle yet.
Schwartz arrived at the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance on Monday
after leaving her home in Saskatchewan on July 12. She made the
1,000-mile journey via motor home with her family, including
fiancée Kaylem Prefontaine, after more than two months of
chemotherapy back home at the Pasqua Hospital in Canada.
According to friends of the family, her cancer treatment --
including the stem cell transplant she needs to survive -- will now
be overseen by the doctors at Seattle Cancer Care Alliance.
