Captain Brian Walker, a firefighter with DeSoto Fire District #8, and 28 years in the fire service, was recently diagnosed with kidney cancer. During a procedure to remove the affected kidney, cancer was also found in his small intestines. He is now facing another surgery in the near future, and a longer recovery than originally expected.
