This morning, members of 4th platoon Engine 4 were truly humbled to take a few moments in between calls to celebrate a remarkable milestone at Sunnyview Rehabilitation Hospital, as Glens Falls Firefighters IAFF Local 2230 member Micki Guy took a major step forward on her road to recovery, being released home to continue her rehabilitation. It was incredibly uplifting to witness her walk to her car for the ride home, a testament to her unwavering strength and resilience.
Just a few short months ago, Micki suffered severe head injury in a freak accident while responding to a fire, and we are overjoyed to see the remarkable progress she has made. We are honored to stand in support of our brave brothers and sisters from Glens Falls.
