Mesothelioma lung cancer

Mesothelioma lung cancer is also referred to as pleural mesothelioma and it is the leading cause of death in cases related to asbestos exposure followed by the cancer affecting the abdomen known as peritoneal mesothelioma. If you are not familiar with asbestos and mesothelioma, you need to take time and perform a thorough search on the internet that will reveal so much. Asbestos is a group of fibrous minerals which occur naturally. The minerals are used to produce so many products in industries. It was used in ceilings, floors, crutch and brake parts, shipyards and so many others. When the asbestos fibers break lose, they become airborne and people around are likely to inhale. Once the fibers are in your system, they stay for a long time until the disease starts to manifest.

Mesothelioma lung cancer like all forms of cancer, is a terrible disease. It leaves its victims in so much pain and throws away their quality of life. It is caused through a variety of ways, the most popular one being tobacco smoking. Not surprising, considering the vast amount of people across the world who smoke. Less commonly known causes include exposure to petroleum gases you tend to inhale when at a filling station, exposure to asbestos and consistent exposure and/or inhalation of smog like that of being trapped in a gridlock rush hour.

A very rare form of lung tumors is mesothelioma. It affects a handful of people, for example in the United States, but its incidence rate is significantly growing, i.e. a lot more people than previously are being diagnosed with the malignant tumor. The cancer to a large degree can be caused by unprotected & prolonged exposure to asbestos. An outrageously high amount of the brave HERO rescue workers who endangered their lives to fight the madness of 9-11 as it unfolded in New York, developed mesothelioma and other (somewhat) preventable types of lung cancer. A lot of the SAINT rescue workers, beloved by their families, friends communities and country, sadly already passed away in the near decade since the atrocity was cowardly committed by terrorists.

There is no known cure for it to date. It is a horrible monster befalls unassuming, everyday people and shatters entire families. Many families grieving the loss of their loved one(s) are left to pick up the pieces from the havoc wrecked by the nightmare. Since mesothelioma is so much of a rare disease, it's very difficult for those left behind to come to terms with the realities of it, i.e. why it had to happen; 'If it's so rare, why did it have to happen to me/us etc?' I have had the chilling experience of witnessing a lady interact with group members of a mesothelioma forum, first asking everybody to keep her uncle in their prayers as he's battling mesothelioma, then returning a few days after to announce that he had passed away. This was very disturbing, especially as I was amongst the people who sent her goodwill messages to console her when she first made the announcement.
