Help - I Have Mesothelioma And Need A Lawyer To Save Me!

Help - I Have Mesothelioma And Need A Lawyer To Save Me!
By Adia O'Hara


A warning to readers: When you cry wolf! Mesothelioma vs. the mesothelioma lawyer

An article provoked, not prompted me to write incorrigibly, which I can only describe as tragically amusing. The writer advised when diagnosed with mesothelioma, the next step is to find a lawyer and file a claim-a 'compensation' that would help with the cost of treatment!

Who said the internet was informative-it is filled with marketeers out to sell something and seemed to have, in the run to be on the good side of the search engines, seemed to have lost their conscience somewhere in the web of life. I was tempted to quote the article title but it is against journalistic ethics to offend a writer.

When you have researched enough-you know when to ignore such articles-but someone who is unfamiliar and is interested in learning more may be led into thinking it is not a medical but a legal term! There is a sea of competition, yes-but if one loses relevance only for material gain-an entire ocean of knowledge sinks when the visitor ends his search or turns to another source for information.

Of course one must seek a lawyer, but not before a visit to the doctor (remember they still exist!) The doctor should be able to retrace through one's lifestyle and judge the possible cause of mesothelioma. If indeed, asbestos is suspected, again, treatment options are made available, (presently, they are mostly trial based).

Mesothelioma is a rare disease and presently incurable. There have been positive responses to treatment trials for those diagnosed while the cancer is in its early stages.

There has also been a scare caused after the announcement of a famed fingerprint product which has been taken off the market when tests revealed the presence of a cancer causing substance-asbestos. The government as well as the company made the announcement public, but the rising concern of those products previously distributed-what happens to them? Who do we sue? If there are no answers, then at least future prevention is a positive aspect.
