She's been a Kaiser nurse for over 10 years. Now she's striking for the next generation—and her savings only have a week and a half left.

On one of the stormiest Mondays Southern California has seen this season, I drove through flooded streets to meet, Vicky Navarro MSN, RN, a Kaiser nurse who has spent 25 years at the bedside. Flash flood warnings. Ankle-deep water. She still showed up to the picket line.

Two years ago, her union president saw this coming. She warned union members to start saving. Vicky listened—and she's been living off those savings ever since the strike began on January 26th. But that savings runs out in about a week and a half.

What keeps her going? Every morning she comes out and sees her coworkers, and something shifts. She feels encouraged. Empowered. Ready to keep fighting—not just for herself, but for her daughter already in nursing, and her granddaughter who's considering following in her footsteps.

This is what the Kaiser strike looks like on Day 22. Watch her full story at the link below.
