On Milton Cable Access TV, Mike Foley talks to Suzette Standring about why he founded Firefighters Vs Cancer and the 5/10/2025 comedy event to give firefighters of Milton, MA free early cancer screening kits by OneTest. The goal is to raise national awareness of the significantly higher rates of occupational cancer among firefighters and to get them tested early to save lives. By Suzette Martinez Standring
Firefighters! Document occupational cancer risk. now, even if there is no illness at this time. Fill out a Workers Compensation form and put it in your personnel file through Human Resources to protect future medical or Line of Duty Death benefits. Lt. and Fire Inspector Christopher Wyman of NH gives details.
Amy Colton, National Sales Manager for OneTest, believes early screenings saved her own life, and said, "Firefighters are at a 72% higher chance of dying from cancer than they are from dying in a fire. It seems kind of crazy that they're not regularly screening for cancer in a meaningful manner." -
