Mesothelioma is eating away my father’s body and doctors have told us that he has only a few months to live. While he is wasting away and succumbing to his disease, he is still jovial and friendly and is putting up a good fight. I have given him Paul Kraus’s book on this disease which he has almost finished reading. I think he has liked the book as he has almost finished reading it.

Mesothelioma Cancer is a deadly disease and has a poor prognosis. My dad has already accepted his fate and has completed all the legal documentation and signed his will. He fell pray to this disease while working in an industrial unit where he was regularly exposed to asbestos. Doctors told us that this regular exposure led to the development of this cancer in his lungs that spread to other parts of his body.

Mesothelioma is untreatable but people can fight the circumstances that lead to this affliction. My dad is ready to put up a good legal fight where he will sue his employers for not taking enough safety precautions. I am with him in this fight and I am hoping and praying that my dad will win his battle.
