Information about mesothelioma which is cancer of the lining of the lungs. This is commonly called asbestosis which is caused by exposure to friable asbestos. There has been massive exposure and it takes twenty years for the cancer to develop after exposure. Workers in shipyards and other industrial areas have developed mesothelioma. My father in law died from this exposure to asbestos.

Mesothelioma Families
If you have a member of your family who has or had asbestosis, please feel free to post your experiences here on this blog. We can share concerns, solutions, and any information that you think might help other people with friends and family suffering from mesothelioma. At this point, as far as I know, mesothelioma is fatal with no know treatment that is a cure. Temporary relief can be obtained by thoracentesis which is draining accumulated fluid from around the lungs. I am a registered nurse and a biological engineer.
