"F*** Cancer" - with Kaleena and Matt Lynde
Manage episode 345096406 series 2510129
The Eldorado National Forest is in the house, again!
Today on the Anchor Point Podcast: We have the fire "power couple", Kaleena and Matt Lynde, to talk about some of the lesser known career paths in wildland fire, working as a public information officer, fire aviation, and to tell the story of overcoming this shitty thing known as cancer...
Kaleena and Matt Lynde met while at WFTC, and started dating after apprenticeship academy. Kaleena headed to an apprentice position on Shasta Lake Hotshots and Matt went to a squad boss position with Big Hill Helitack.
At the end of that season, Kaleena was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer - Matt took on that battle with her.... Now that they have been together for over 16 years, Kaleena is cancer free and they are still in fire... Working their way through different operational fire and aviation positions.
These folks are the prime example of two people helping make the other person the best version of themselves.
