Calgary father and firefighter featured in emotional Alberta Cancer Foundation campaign
Lorne Miller is used to being on the front lines and witnessing tragedy. But the Calgary firefighter and father of two didn’t expect he would be faced with his own hardship.
“I’ve sat on the ‘runway to the afterlife’ a couple times now,” Miller said. “There’s no checked bag, there’s no carry on, it’s just you and a one-way ticket out of here.” Miller was diagnosed with cancer after doctors discovered a cancerous mass nearly the size of a volleyball in his stomach on May 9, 2021.
After the surgery and celebrating one year being cancer free, he got a gut-wrenching call. It’s back.
