Asbestos is a Silent Killer part 1 of 3 June 30, 2002, legislation was passed in British Columbia by the Campbell Liberals such that no one over age 65 would receive a disability award for a work related disease or injury. The effects of asbestos are not noticeable until 15 to 40 years after contact. Thirty-five (35) people in BC Living their remaining years in extreme pain and suffering as a result of exposure to asbestos. Doug Jones, president of Local 480 United Steel Workers in Trail, BC Asbestos exposures are relevant through out the region, in factories, schools, hospitals, ferries, ship yards, and all through the building trades. Workers cut sheets of asbestos to make insulating blocks. Lots of asbestos dust particles being breathed. This type of labor work was done 2-3 times per month, and many people did this for twenty years. Asbestos dust cuts the lining of the lungs which induces scar tissue, and the scar tissue reduces lung capacity, damages the air-sacs in the lungs, so this is a very painful death. These people with Asbestosis or Mesothelioma can't do much of anything since they can't breath and they have to rest all the time to catch their breath. Their pain, their chemical therapy for pain, their breathlessness, their quality of life is ruined. The Mesothelioma Research Foundation of America believes that the work being done in the development of Veglin can bring mesothelioma cancer and the suffering of this disease to an end. mesorfa.org Jerry Neil Paul ...

Paul Baas, MD, PhD, thoracic oncologist in the Division of Medical Oncology of the Netherlands Cancer Institute in Amsterdam, discusses the standard of care for mesothelioma patients. Baas describes the current standard, platinum with an antifolate, as successful at first but does not have long-term benefits beyond 2 years. There are currently 2 phase III studies investigating mesothelioma treatment. The first study was presented at ASCO and failed to produce results. Another study that will be presented at ESMO looks at recurrent mesothelioma. New treatments for mesothelioma are constantly being investigated because asbestos is still commonly used in third world countries that do not have any rules or regulations against its use.

Dr. Raja M. Flores, Chief of the Division of Thoracic Surgery at The Mount Sinai Medical Center, is a recognized leader in the field of Thoracic Surgery for his pioneering efforts in the treatment of mesothelioma. He has established VATS lobectomy, a minimally invasive approach using three small incisions, as the gold standard in the surgical treatment of lung cancer. He published two sentinel studies validating its oncological effectiveness by demonstrating equivalent survival and recurrence rates with fewer complications and shorter hospital stays when compared to standard thoracotomy. Currently, Dr. Flores is one of the most experienced VATS lobectomy surgeons in the world. He was a lead investigator in a multicenter trial of neoadjuvant alimta/cisplatin, extrapleural pneumonectomy, and high-dose radiation, which is designed to improve outcomes. He also presented this data at the 90th Annual Meeting of the American Association for Thoracic Surgery. Dr. Flores' additional research interests are based on numerous past projects relating to the multimodality management of malignant pleural mesothelioma, as well as innovative surgical techniques in minimally invasive thoracic surgery for lung cancer. He has led a number of major studies, including clinical trials of neoadjuvant gemcitabine and cisplatin followed by extrapleural pneumonectomy and high dose radiation.

www.searchmesothelioma.net Both the government and corporate industry used promotional newsreel type films during the 1950s and 1960s to promote the application and widespread use of asbestos products. These films were instrumental to marketing asbestos and generating acceptance by the public. Since the early 1900s, asbestos was known to cause illness and disease in workers who handled the material. Even second-hand contact with asbestos can result in a cancer known as mesothelioma. Due to foreknowledge of the danger and not telling their workers, many corporations have since gone bankrupt from paying out billions in court settlement claims against them.

www.hsinjurylaw.com Rick Shapiro, a railroad worker injury/FELA attorney with over 20 years of experience, sat down with his law partner to talk about just how dangerous, and potentially life-threatening, asbestos exposure can be to the human body. People who are exposed to asbestos can develop a deadly, non-curable form of cancer known as mesothelioma. Rick mentioned that numerous medical studies have shown that there is no "minimum exposure" level in developing mesothelioma, so even just a brief exposure could lead to developing this deadly cancer.

If you or a loved one worked in the drilling industry from the mid 1960s to the late 1980s and developed lung cancer or mesothelioma, you may have a claim for damages CALL US TODAY AT 1-866-460-0540. Many drilling mud additives used on rigs contained extremely high levels of asbestos, a fiber which causes lung cancer and mesothelioma. For example, the Visbestos and Suber Visbestos additives manufactured by Union Carbide were between 95 and 99 percent pure asbestos. Other drilling mud additives include Flosal, Visquik, Shurlift, Superbest, Univis, and Arcovis. These additives were supplied to rigs by oilfield service companies such as Baroid, Baker Hughes, IMCO, and Macobar. Drilling mud asbestos additive products were sold in fifty-pound bags and were used as a thickener in the drilling mud process and mixed directly into drilling mud. In many instances, rig workers poured these additives in confined spaces, without the aid of respiratory equipment to protect them from the dangerous asbestos fibers contained in the thickener product. Many drilling industry workers have developed injuries as a result of their exposure to asbestos. Asbestos has been classified as a human carcinogen by the Environmental Protective Agency, the US Department of Health and Human Services, and the International Agency for Research on Cancer. Mesothelioma is a rare type of cancer usually forming in membranes around the lungs. Most diagnoses of mesothelioma are associated with past asbestos ...

Original website Video link: www.winthefightagainstcancernaturally.org Because you asked... "A Frequently Asked Question" : For years, Chuck Montana has been studying the use of marine phytoplankton as an all natural alternative cancer treatment (as can be heard in most of the marine phytoplankton videos on our website "WinTheFightAgainstCancerNaturally.org.) He says that in his experience: "Only marine phytoplankton grown in real ocean water that has been purified, filtered and sterilized is known to benefit those with cancer." He goes further to mention that the rare nutrient CoQ9 may also play an essential role in the effectiveness of marine phytoplankton against cancer. In addition, he explains that most phytoplankton products on the market today have very little effect on cancer, and some (which are synthetically-grown) can even make cancer conditions worse. So, use caution when selecting a marine phytoplankton product! For more info, check out our Marine Phytoplankton section on our website (see below). Based on results reported during his interviews of those using marine phytoplankton, for cancer Chuck personally recommends 3 to 6 grams of marine phytoplankton daily--taken in powder or pure capsule form--divided into two servings--am and pm In this Video, Jeff Davis receives a surprise phone call from Chuck asking him about his use of Marine Phytoplankton (which he refers to as "medicine").
