and asbestos lawsuit information.
Mesothelioma
is an extremely dangerous form
of lung cancer that derives
from exposure to certain asbestos
fibers that penetrate deep within
the layers of the lungs. The
body is unable to dispel the
fibers, which eventually cause
an inflammatory condition in
the lungs. This condition is
thought to be responsible for
the resulting tumor that can
form either around the lining
of the lungs (pleura), the abdomen
(peritoneum) or around the heart
(pericardium). The tumor is
very difficult to expunge from
the body and can destroy these
vital organs.
BREAKING
NEWS!! July
14, 2003 Senate agreeing
to asbestos trust increase
- A revision to a bill
that is trying to limit
the number of asbestos
claims in Texas courts
would allow pending lawsuits
to continue. Sen. Kyle
Janek is trying to secure
the two thirds vote required
to advance the asbestos
bill in the Senate. Supported
by businesses and insurers
hoping to get protection
over potential asbestos
claims, the asbestos bill
is highly opposed by lawyers,
consumer groups, and families
and former asbestos workers
now suffering deadly illnesses.
