Firefighters to climb Canfield

Because this weekend’s Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Firefighter Stairclimb at the Columbia Center in Seattle was canceled due to coronavirus worries, North Idaho firefighters will be staging a climb in their own backyard.

Firefighter's fight with lymphoma fuels passion for stair climb

Dylan Browning’s Silver Valley roots go deep. After getting a job at Northern Lakes Fire Protection District last year, he still volunteers as a firefighter in Shoshone County. Joined by fellow North Idaho firefighters on Sunday, he put his body through its paces as part of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society Firefighter Stair Climb on Sunday in Seattle.

Firefighter Stairclimb fundraiser is March 3

Firefighters from the Coeur d'Alene Fire Department are stepping up their game — about 800 feet.

Readers question shingles vaccine

DEAR DR. GOTT: I just took the shingles vaccine at a local drugstore. I filled out papers but nowhere did it mention that anyone who had a history of cancer should not take the vaccine. Please advise.

Climbing on air

Seven firefighters from the Coeur d'Alene Fire Department participated in the Scott Firefighter Stairclimb on March 11.

POT: Medical usage warranted

This letter is in support of Rep. Tom Trail, R-Moscow and his Idaho Compassionate Use Medical Marijuana Act, or HB 19. In a country billed as By and For the People, and not pharmaceutical companies or law enforcement, it should not even be a controversy. Don't We the People have the right to determine what to put into our own bodies? Heck, if not, then who owns our bodies?

FETAL: Another side to the story

Ron Vieselmeyer’s letter was published in the Coeur d’Alene Press Wednesday morning. It is an interesting coincidence that while he was ranting away at Planned Parenthood and demanding that the organization be defunded, this column was found in “The Week” and I quote:

Monte Miller, 63

Monte Duane Miller lost his physical body from a complication in his battle with leukemia late Saturday, April 25th. But his hope was never in beating cancer; his hope was in Christ. He was already more than a conqueror in Jesus Christ (Rom 8), and he had victory over the sting of death in Jesus Christ (1 Cor 15). For him to live was Christ, but to die was gain (Phil 1).
