Brice Worley, a Batavia High School junior with a brain tumor refuses to give up on his dreams: becoming an emergency medical technician. The Batavia Fire Department is working on a program specifically designed for Brice that will allow him to complete EMT training courses and become certified in a shorter amount of time.
The Batavia High School junior was diagnosed with a brain tumor three years ago, and after being in partial remission for over two years, a new tumor was discovered in June.
The Batavia Fire Department hosted Brice's family for dinner recently so members of the department could learn more about his goals for EMT training. Brice is currently on a chemotherapy medication to keep the new tumor stable, and to give him the"best quality of life as possible," Wilson said.
