In 2022, Northern Virginia resident Barbara Green got news no one wants to hear: she had pancreatic cancer. Doctors told her she likely had nine months to live. A year and a half later, the 79 year-old has defied the odds, but said she's clear-eyed about the future. "There is no cure for pancreatic cancer," Green said.

Virginia’s top drinking water official: “One of the things that we're looking into is why the fail-safe systems and the redundant systems didn't work. Because you shouldn't have this kind of problem."
