If we have insurance through our employers, we expect, perhaps naively, that they will always follow through when something happens.

That wasn’t the case for Sarwara Faruqu. Her family had to fight tooth and nails to get her life insurance after she died from a 9  month battle with colon cancer. She worked 7 years for 7-11 and paid into a life insurance policy offered by 7-11 for 7 years.

The family went to Good Morning America who contacted 7-11 and soon after, the family got its money. Props to GMA for doing something so great for this family, and grr at -11 for trying to skip out.
