CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (KCRG) - Jim Slosiarek has spent 26 years capturing eastern Iowa’s most memorable moments through his camera lens. Now, the Gazette photographer is facing a diagnosis of inoperable brain cancer. Weakness in his arm, then leg, led to the discovery in April. His career is on pause as he receives radiation and chemotherapy. “Every day where he doesn’t have those more difficult side effects we’re very grateful,” said Angie Slosiarek, Jim’s wife.
