On This Day In Hockey History... ๐
Mario Lemieux finished his final radiation treatment for Hodgkin's lymphoma, then joined the @Penguins for their game against the @NHLFlyers in Philadelphia. ๐
"Watt" a surprise! @_TJWatt from @steelers presented Corey Fischer, a patient at UPMC Children's, with two tickets to the #SuperBowl during a surprise virtual call!
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
Tannen is a bone marrow transplant patient of @ChildrensPgh's Dr. Randy Windreich, and they're best buddies. These photos show how much Tannen looks up to Dr. Windreich.
It goes to show how Dr. Windreich inspires his patients!
