BC Hans Bolowich Update

Subject: BC Hans Bolowich update 5/29/2019

All,

 

After two weeks of tests and procedures, I am saddened to report that Chief Bolowich has been diagnosed with brain cancer.  The extent and agressivness of the specific cancer is still not known. He has just been discharged from RUHS and is returning home to spend the weekend with Carla and family and sleep in his own bed.

Next week Hans will be headed to UC Irvine Medical center in Orange, CA where he will continue tests, work with specialists and consider treatment options. This news has been difficult for both Hans and his family but they remain in good spirits and are now preparing for the long road ahead.

 

An In-Kind donation account has been established through the Riverside County Professional Firefighters Benevolent Fund for the Bolowich family. If you would like to assist the Bolowich family with the financial impact that they will endure in covering the costs of care, treatment and recovery; donate here:

Lastly, Chief Gad Amith will be taking back over as the Bolowich family liaison effective 0800 hours tomorrow 5/30. Please direct any communications for Hans or Carla through him. Please continue to respect the family’s privacy and understand that if any needs arise, we will let you know.
