Steve Dorsey, a 56-year-old firefighter in Baltimore, was diagnosed with Stage 4 esophageal cancer on Valentine's Day. As he undergoes chemotherapy, he emphasizes the strong support from his coworkers. Dorsey, who has a family of four, aims to raise awareness about the higher cancer risk firefighters face, urging departments to adopt DNA testing to catch early warning signs. His journey highlights the importance of proactive health checks and community support during dire health challenges, relying on his own experience to inspire change and awareness.
The love that I've gotten out of my co-workers has been amazing. They're outstanding and supportive during this challenging time.
My mission is to bring awareness to esophageal cancer since firefighters have a 63% higher risk than the general population.
