Workers who were exposed to asbestos were betrayed by their employers. It is a sad fact that many innocent family members were also exposed to asbestos without knowing and so have been diagnosed with mesothelioma.
It is a terminal disease and innocent victims deserve reparations. Legal advice is available if you are a victim or know a victim. Companies should be held accountable for these and other fatal industrial accidents.
Hi Irwin Michelle
You are a little bit suspect putting advertising links in your comment. But it appears you do good work for asbestos victims (unless anyone tells me different). However, I would suggest that anyone who is suffering from this disease contacts their trade union first or a family support group for advice. http://www.hazards.org/organisations.htm#Asbestossupport
