About Me:

I am a two time cancer survivor and 12+ year Volunteer Firefighter.

In 2003 I was diagnosed with a grade 2 Astrocytoma (brain tumor) and underwent surgery to have it removed.

Almost 2 years to the day, I was told that the tumor had returned and once again underwent surgery.

I have fairly good insurance coverage but it only goes so far. I have to make a trip to the Cleveland Clinic every 3 months for an MRI to see if the tumor has returned. My insurance only pays 80% of the MRI, leaving me with the remaining that I have to pay out of pocket (about $2000 each time).

Needless to say, I simply can not keep up with the medical bills and am slowly falling further and further behind.

I decided to put my photography and graphics artistic talent to use and open an online store. I have put up this MySpace page to help spread the word about my online store so that I can make more sales. All of the profits go towards my ever mounting medical expenses.

I will also be announcing new products as they become available here!

Please, take a look at http://www.myfireart.com and if you see something you like, buy it... or if you see something that someone else might like, please let them know about it.

Thanks for looking!

Remember: Volunteer Firefighters - What if you called for help... and no one came?

I too have battled cancer. I was diagnosed with malignant kidney cancer in April 2007. The day the Doctor told my wife and me the news; life would never be the same. Thanks for saying what is hard for most of us to admit. We are human and not invincible. God bless, Mike

Thanks for letting me know about your "firefighters with cancer" page. Your story was really touching. I joined ACS relay for life because I've had family members and friends of mine touched by cancer. And I wanted to help in the fight against cancer. Thanks again with best wishes.

Your pictures are so unbelievable. They seem to put you right there in the fireman's shoes. I'm so sorry to hear about your cancer. Pray hard and I and my friends will too, and maybe those MRI trips will eventually stop. Have faith. God loves you. I will look at what you have for sale. Your pictures rock! Keep on taking them. They are so enjoyable to look at.
Talk to you soon.
