Husband Fired From Job For Sticking By His Cancer-Striken Wife

Boston resident Carl Sorabella was fired from his job of 13 years after he told his employer he would need a more flexible schedule to accompany his cancer-striken wife for treatment. His employer, Haynes Real Estate Management Company, is made up of less than 50 people, so neither state nor federal labor protection laws apply. “I just don’t know how to get my head around something like this,” Sorbella said. “You just can’t do that…we have no income now.”
