In this episode, AFSO21 Radio, The Weekend Wrap-up host Kevin Ferrara talks with military veteran and former firefighter Dan Casson. Dan submitted several claims for VA disability and was finally successful in receiving a 100% rating due to his cancer that his doctors and the VA attributed to his exposure to AFFF and firefighting while in the military.
Listeners will hear from Dan how exposure to AFFF and his battle with numerous forms of cancer has affected not just himself, but his family.
Dan talks about how his battle is like a military mission where you "don't quit" and why it's important to keep seeking answers.
We'll be following up with Dan later to see how he is doing as he begins his second fight against cancer.
