This article is on an NYPD officer who had been a first responder on 9/11 and just passed away. Similar to what we have been talking about in class it is believed that the cause of his death may have been from Ground Zero toxins in the air on that particular day. His name was George M.C. Wong and he was only 40 years old living in Las Vegas. He had been diagnosed with cancer previously by his doctor to be the cause but this idea just as quickly was turned down again. This entire story is extremely sad and depressing. No one likes to hear about stories like this about heroes who were just being brave and doing their part. Everyone should look up to people like Wong and admire their hard work and care for others.
