Mesothelioma Abstract

I am doing my research paper on Mesothelioma, which is a terminal type of lung cancer.  My research paper will help people to have a better understanding of what mesothelioma and its effects.  One of the things I will focus on is how this disease can effect a family after a loved one has been diagnosed.  I will do this by interviewing a close friend of mine whose grandpa was diagnosed with Mesothelioma about a year and a half ago and he has recently passed away.  I will talk about the effects that this disease had on his life. I will talk about him before he was diagnosed, while he was being diagnosed, and while he had to finish out his life knowing that he soon would pass away from this disease.  Many people are getting diagnosed with this disease because they did not know that asbestos would later on be killing people.  I think we can use this to help us prevent similar instances like this from happening in the future.

Mesothelioma: Research Topic

I plan to do my research paper on the topic of mesothelioma.  As I have mentioned before a very close family friend of mine recently passed away from this type of lung cancer.  I plan on interviewing his granddaughter and a doctor that has dealt with these cases.  While interviewing his granddaughter I plan to ask questions having to do with how it affected her family throughout the process of diagnosis up until death. From the doctor I hope to just get additional information that can further help me with this research paper.

Mesothelioma is a lung disease that is caused by asbestos, and causes cancer.  I think that this is a problem that can be fixed that is why I want to research this. Asbestos does not need to be used as much as it is so that this disease can be prevented!!!
