| Once a
U.S. Senator and former Washington state governor, Dan Evans knows
that a family’s political clout is no protection from life-threatening
illness. Two years ago, his granddaughter Eloise, 3 years of age, was
diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer. Eloise had a large tumor
growing from the back of her mouth to the base of her skull.
Chemotherapy, radiation and surgery were needed to shrink the tumor.
Blood transfusions helped her through the months of treatment. Today,
she is a playful 5-year-old.
“It’s nice to see that she’s back to where she was before– heavier,
taller and just as full of life,” said her grandfather.
