Episode 83 of the Get ’N Your Business Podcast features Pat Long—paramedic, firefighter, and founder of The Decon Project—sharing a powerful story of faith, cancer survival, and a mission to protect those who protect us. Pat opens up about being in peak physical condition when a small “bump” led to a life-altering cancer diagnosis. Despite feeling healthy, he was later diagnosed with aggressive non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma with over 100 tumors in his body. Through faith, family, and the firefighter brotherhood, Pat endured treatment and emerged with a new purpose. That journey sparked The Decon Project, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit focused on reducing firefighter cancer risk through decontamination, prevention, and early detection—bringing tools like saunas, toxin-binding hygiene products, on-scene decon wipes, hydration & sleep support, and ultrasound screenings directly to fire departments at no cost. This episode is a must-watch for firefighters, first responders, healthcare professionals, community leaders, and anyone who wants to understand the unseen health risks firefighters face—and how we can help change the standard. 👉 Learn more or support the mission:
