The sacrifices that coal miners make

When an accident strikes, coal miners and their families are reminded of the sacrifices they make every day as they head to work. We hear from Peggy Cohen whose father, Fred Ware, died in the Sago Mine disaster. She says that waiting for information is one of the hardest times immediately following a tragedy like this.

We also hear from Phil Smith, communications director for the United Mine Workers, who keeps a close watch on safety regulations.
