Naples (FL) firefighter, David Perez, initially kept his cancer diagnosis quiet, but now speaks out about the importance of fire fighter health and cancer in the fire service. “My eyes really opened up as to how many firefighters have been diagnosed with cancer and how many people there [Sylvester’s Firefighter Cancer Initiative] are fighting for us,” Perez said.
