The Social Network & Community JUST for Firefighters
North County firefighter who suffered severe burns trying to save someone's life, only to get fired from the department.
Cindy Schuenke a Firefighter Paramedic with the Community FPD, put her life on the line to save a 77 yr old grandmother. Only to fall thrugh the floor and into basement of the burning home. She suffered sever burns to her hands. They were not able to save the grandmother, but the family was outraged to her that the one who put her life on the line to save her, was sent a letter telling her the district no longer needed her services. I think this is an enjustice to one who did this act of heroism for which she recived a Medal of Valor.

This is an outrage she may have not followed her sop or sog or what the NFPA or OSHA says but she saved a tried to save a life and i will pray that the departemnt reverses their decession and if they dont then they are obviously losing an amazing firefighter.

Are you kidding me.. So sad to hear where things like this happen.. I totally agree she deserves something for just a brave act... We should as a family put letters together to this district township what ever for firing her and let them know how the rest of us feel.. maybe some news coverage would help thru this.. Let her know her fire family is behind her and wish her a speedy recovery....
