	"description": "The BPL Professional Staff Association has successfully managed our Extended Sick Leave Fund (&quot;sick bank&quot;) since its inception. Members donate one, two, or three days worth of hours each year to the bank to help support members in need. A member has requested to use these hours to attend doctor&#x27;s appointments, treatment sessions for her cancer, and other time off as related to her illness. Unfortunately, her request has been denied by the head of Boston Public Library&#x27;s Human Resources Department and the City of Boston&#x27;s Office of Labor Relations. No one who is going through cancer treatment should also have to worry about paying their bills. No one should have to choose between a doctor&#x27;s appointment and getting paid. If we allow BPL HR and OLR to decide that a member shouldn&#x27;t be granted the hours from our sick bank now, what is to stop them from denying all of our requests in the future?",
