If you have patients with mesothelioma, the cancer of the lining of
heart, the lungs, and abdomen that is related to exposure to asbestos,
there are on-line support groups for the patients and their loved
ones, including loved ones of people who have died of the
mesothelioma. The links for the support groups are http://www.marf.org
and http://listserv.acor.org/archives/mesothelioma.html Also, there
is information on mesothelioma at the Mesothelioma Applied Research
Foundation website at http://www.marf.org

The U.S. House of Representatives is considering a bill to ban
asbestos (it is already banned in 40 countries) and to provide funds
for medical research into asbestos-related diseases so more effective
treatments can be found. Please ask your representative to support
this bill by visiting http://www.banasbestos.us
