Yale's Mandi Schwartz

Re: Yale's Mandi Schwartz

I posted the following on the mens boards tonight...

Here is Mandi's plight.

Here's how you might be able to help:

I would be remiss if I didn't approach every hockey fan regardless of Nationality to send an email to CBC with the headline Mandi Schwartz expressing your interest in having Don Cherry feature Mandi's story on HNIC tomorrow night. This in an effort to raise immediate awareness of Mandi's and many others... need for a core blood donor. It's a long shot...I know, but exposing Mandi's story on Canada's National Broadcaster, to what will likely be the largest hockey audience on record watching a game six is a long shot that will be taken.

Spread the word. If it isn't enough that one life begins during the delivery of a child, something so simple as donating core blood could in all likelihood save another. Who knew?

God Speed Mandi.....

Done. I also contacted the President (a family friend) of the Toronto area Ukrainian Catholic church to spread the word through their congregation, and to a Doctor friend who writes a weekly medical column in the local paper. Both have agreed to help.

Re: Yale's Mandi Schwartz

This past weekend at the Prospects event in Toronto, I saw the former Yale
assistant coach give a brief but impassioned talk about Mandi. He was obviously totally committed to helping save his former player's life. It was inspiring to hear that and brought tears to my eyes, my daughters eyes and to many others in the crowd.

Her story was featured on SportsCenter yesterday too. I'm already on the bone marrow list. It's not too difficult and could save a life.

Let's keep her in our thoughts and prayers. My own experience is it's very good to have people in your corner supporting you in this way...the more the better. Prayers for complete success and recovery Mandi!

Re: Yale's Mandi Schwartz

It does baffle the senses that Doc Collins could be a fraud.....I'm not sure of anything nowadays with the way that it seems everyone has their own agendas.....Not that the NY Times, nor the Conn. AG aren't reputable but as the above article says, how could anyone use this issue for fraud, especially given his own daughter's death.....it does make one pause..
