Low-Paid, Uninsured Janitor with Breast Cancer a Finalist for Glamour's "Woman of the Year" - Houston Janitors SEIU
I'm dying of cancer and my daughters may grow up without a mother because I had no health care, no early detection or other treatment,' says Sandoval, a member of her union bargaining committee. 'Houston janitors are fighting for access to affordable health care for all working families in Houston so no one else has to go through what my family and I are facing now.' Dubbed 'The Advocate' by Glamour, Ercilia's story can be found on Glamour's website at www.glamour.com/news/woty/slideshows/2006/10/09/womanofyouryear?slide=1.
