This is the 9/11 story of John Feal, president and founder the FealGood Foundation. After suffering a horrific injury working rescue and recovery at Ground Zero, John sought therapy. It was at group therapy where he first met other 9/11 first responders, suffering a slew of health issues no one could explain. John Feal launched the FealGood Foundation to help these ailing 9/11 responders with the basics: food on table and rides to chemotherapy. He went on to become a leading 9/11 community advocate, helping pass 13 pieces of legislation—not only helping ailing 9/11 first responders, but some 400,000 others who were exposed to 9/11 toxins. Hear him share his 9/11 story with Q104.3 FM’s Shelli Sonstein.
