Xmas Urban Legend: the Littlest Fireman

Saturday December 15, 2007
This story is will melt the heart of most any reader. A young boy, dying of terminal leukemia, asks to be a fireman in his last few days of his life.  Granting his wish, the Phoenix fire department not only got him a uniform, but took him on fire calls and had the young boy help drive a fire pump around the city.  As incredible as this story sounds, it is a true event that has had some exaggerations added for dramatic effect. Read the Littlest Fireman legend for yourself... this is a fabulous story for the Christmas season.
