VIDEO: He spent years in a group home and foster care, but Noah Patrick never gave up on a dream. "I really love to help people," Patrick said. Patrick, 19, is a cadet training to be a Milwaukee firefighter. He's on a path to success despite a very difficult childhood. "The house was never clean. There was no food to eat. My brother got abused. I got abused, physically and emotionally. I just saw my dad abuse my mom and stuff like that, it still affects me today," Patrick said. At 13, Patrick went to a group home, and then foster care.
