Heartbreaking Announcement From the Stelter Family a Year After Ben's Passing

Yesterday, Ben's father Mike took to Instagram to announce that he is now going through a fight of his own:

As he says in the post, the family will have to travel to the United States for Mike to receive treatment, since the treatment he needs is not available in Canada.

The Oilers Instagram page chimed in to add the following:

Mike's sister in law has started a GoFundMe to help the family with travel expenses and treatment costs. If you are able to make a donation, please click here.

We wish Mr. Stelter all the best wishes with his treatment and for a speedy recovery.
