Story
We created this site to organize a system of support for Stefanie (Stef, Steffi, Ms. Schwartz) and her family as she heals. Stef is such a giver, and now we can all give back! Stef's needs will certainly change as time goes by. If you have suggestions, please don't hesitate to contact us! Thank you so much! (Sabine (cousin), Heidi (sister), Alex (son), and Susie (daughter). FAQ: What is going on? Stef was diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer on Nov 6, 2024 What stage is she? Please understand that Stef is comfortable discussing things like stage, prognosis, and the specifics of her treatment plan with her close family members only. Stef is getting the very best care at Cedars Sinai in Los Angeles. Stef and Mike are confident that her oncology team are at the very forefront of the research on this disease. Stef is a very science-minded individual, and she is focused on getting healthy!
Special Notes
Stef's appetite comes and goes depending on when she has had her most recent chemo infusion. Home-cooked meals are always welcome, but meals delivered from her favorite restaurants are great, too! Stef tends to avoid strong smells (onions, garlic) when she's feeling kind of yucky, and things that are easy to eat and chew are a bonus. Protein is important for sure, and getting some nutrients in there, but she is allowed to eat anything she wants. She has a STRONG AVERSION to bananas! She has to avoid cold drinks and foods for the first week after chemo. Please keep in mind that we're not just feeding Stef, though, also feeding Mike and Susie, who live with Stef, too!
