Jan's Journey ...
MY LIFE BATTLING MESOTHELIOMA
Mesothelioma is a Silent Killer - No symptoms are obvious to the disease in early stages - No easy test to discover diagnosis - Death is certain it all depends on time
We have No Cure, We have few Choices and above all We have a Low Life Expectancy but we can Buy Time
This site has been created to help anyone suffering from Mesothelioma, a cancer caused by Asbestos. Mesothelioma mainly resides in the Chest Cavity crushing the lung, attacking the heart sac, diaphragm and eventually killing you.
I hope the web site will help you to find your pathway through treatments and with the help of other sufferer's experiences may help you find the strength and courage to take up Arms against Mesothelioma.
You will find my story, information on treatments, your stories and any news referring to Mesothelioma on this website, together with links to sites that may help you.
Having exhausted many treatments I underwent surgery in January 2009. I was under the diligent care of Mr John Edwards at Sheffield General Hospital. This photo was taken 4 days after surgery which removed my left pleura, diaphragm and pericardium during an 8 - 9 hour operation.
Mesothelioma is a silent killer and most people don't know they have it until it's too late
Mesothelioma has the least spent where research is concerned and only one current chemotherapy.
