“Working in a surgical intensive care unit, I take care of seriously ill people,” said Sue Cannon, a UC Irvine Medical Center RN and CNA member. “Everyday I see patients with diseases such as diabetes or asthma who can’t afford their medications or the equipment they need to keep it under control. These are life-long diseases that can be kept under control if they had proper healthcare coverage.”
