The *Daily Herald* recently published a heartwarming story about the Rolling Meadows firefighters who went above and beyond to support a young burn victim. The article highlights how firefighters from Local 3075 made a special visit to La Rabida Children’s Hospital in Chicago, bringing not just comfort, but also technology to help a child stay connected with his loved ones. Firefighter Rick Acosta returned to the hospital last month and was pleased to see an iPad charging next to the bed of 8-year-old Adorian Fentry, a boy from Rolling Meadows. This device had been gifted by Acosta and his fellow firefighters after they rescued Adorian in March following a tragic accident at home. Adorian had accidentally knocked over a candle while sitting on a cocktail table, causing severe burns that covered 35% of his body. He required long-term treatment and rehabilitation at La Rabida, a children's hospital on Chicago’s South Side. During his recovery, Adorian was unable to see his family or classmates except on weekends. To help him stay connected, the firefighters from Local 3075 pooled their own money, with additional support from their fire chief, to buy two iPads. They hoped the devices would allow Adorian to video call his family, teachers, and friends using FaceTime and Skype. Acosta shared how the experience touched them all. “When we deal with children in traumatic situations, it really hits close to home,” he said. “Our union members wanted to do something meaningful, and they donated without hesitation.” In May, eight firefighters visited the hospital to surprise Adorian with the gifts. Four of them were the same paramedics who had responded to the emergency call in March. Colin Barr, one of the firefighters, recalled the moment Adorian saw them. “His eyes lit up when he saw us walk in, and they got even bigger when we gave him the iPads.” Adorian’s reaction was emotional. Not only did he express gratitude, but he also got out of his wheelchair to shake their hands and thank them personally. Barr was moved by the boy’s courage and kindness. “He remained calm during the entire incident, and now, seeing him again, we were once again impressed by his bravery and determination,” he said. This touching story is more than just about a gift—it's about the compassion and humanity of first responders who go the extra mile to make a difference in a child’s life.
