    I worked for WalMart.I got my back injured 16 years ago.I have been through 3 back surgeries.I have been told that later on down the line I may end up in a wheel chair.WalMart got away with paying me next to nothing for my injury because the judge in my case was pro corporate.When I got injured My husband had just passed away a year earlier and I had two children one was 7 and one was 13 at the time but Walmart did not care at all.My workmans comp was cut off for two years because they was trying to force me back to work even though my back was still hurt and the Walmart doctor was telling them that I could not return to work.I had to fight WalMart from 1997 until we went to court in2002.I have to live with a huge WalMart reminder every day,every time I have to take my pain medication just to be able to make it through the day.So I stand with the workers God Bless each and every one of you.Stand Proud!!
