NEW YORK - Jacquelin Febrillet was 26 years old on September 11, 2001 when jihadist hijackers flew two passenger jets into the World Trade Center just two blocks from where she worked.
Fifteen years after the attacks that day, Febrillet, by then a mother of three, was diagnosed with metastatic cancer. The likely cause: A cloud of toxic ash that engulfed her.
"I was there (on) 9/11. ... For years I have been working down there every day since 9/11. We were never told that something could happen," she says.
