Mesothelioma is a rare and incurable cancer disease that affects the lungs and the surrounding tissue called the pleura. Other areas of the body that may be affected include the lower abdomen, and the pericardium (a sac that encompasses the heart).

There is only one known cause of mesothelioma, exposure to asbestos.

Over the years people who have worked in different industries may have unknowingly been exposed to deadly asbestos fibers in their workplace.

The type of industries that have been known to have asbestos include shipyards, cement factories, textile shops, car brake work or shops, oil refineries, power plants, and construction sites.

People may also be exposed to asbestos from building demolition, if precautions are not taken to insure that any asbestos is cleared out before the actual demolition occurs. There are strict federal and state level guidelines for the removal of asbestos.

The danger happens when the actual asbestos fibers reach the air and then are breathed in. Once the fibers reach the lung tissue is it trapped and can’t be discharged.

When viewing asbestos fibers under the microscope, you can see the spines and crystal makeup of the fibers. The medical community has generally agreed that the amount of expose needed to cause mesothelioma is anywhere from 5 to 1,200 fiber-year/mL.

The onset of mesothelioma can take up to 15-20 years to show up, this is why the courts throughout the US has been doing what’s called a “Fast-Track” of these cases, as the people who suffer from mesothelioma don’t have very long to live.

As a personal note on this topic, my grandfather died back in the late 1970’s, his death was attributed to what the doctors called “black-lung”.

He worked his entire life in the Texas shipping port town Galveston. It’s now understood that he died from mesothelioma –yet the doctors didn’t know what the cause of his disease was at that time.

During the research for this article it was made clear that the legal community has taken notice of this rare disease, and has been actively seeking victims of this terrible lung disease, this is evident by the large number of litigation type websites that talk about mesothelioma.

I know very few truths, but I "know" a lot of facts.

For example, I have observed that some questions on the medical board exams do not change, but the answers do. Had I picked "infection" as the factual answer to a question about the cause of some peptic ulcers on my national boards I probably would not be a doctor today (though I might have won a Nobel Prize).

One truth I hold to be self evident is that quality heath care goes far beyond eliminating errors. Doing the wrong things flawlessly does not create winners in any endeavor. And all the focus on rote procedues does not cause the quality forest to suddenly appear among the trees. Ironically, all the current cachophony about "evidence based medicine" as the basis for quality conveniently ignores the "fact" that most of the mandated "quality" procedures have not themselves been scientifically validated.

A fact (I currently believe) is that most, perhaps 90%, of medical errors result in no apparent harm to the patient. Of course, this cannot be constued as an argument that errors do not matter. The horrible stories of the wrong paired organ being removed or the lethal logarithmic error in drug dosing are too well documented to be dismissed.

But even so, some errors can be beneficial. I cannot count the number of instances where a colleague has violated "guidelines" and ordered something like a "routine" chest x-ray for a non-smoker only to discover the curable 1.5 cm adenocarcinoma. These "black swan" events do not make the guidelines that advise against such x-rays wrong. You cannot tell that to the survivor of the lung cancer (and you cannot tell it to the patient who died from complications of treatment of an accidently discovered benign lesion either, for obvious reasons).

I cannot forget my failing nanogenerian with end stage heart failure who was accidently given a cardiac cocktail of aces, diuretics, andrenergic agonists and antagonists, and calcium channel blockers, all meant for the man in the next room. I would not have discovered this event except that I entered the room a few minutes after it happened. The patieint (who had once been the CEO of a large company) remarked: "They totally changed my medicines and I feel better already". This alarmed me some, since I had just looked at his chart. But the patieint was absolutely sure.

I explained the error to the patient and suggested a transfer to the ICU for closer observation. He asked some pertinent questions, learned that the medicines he received were also intended for a heart failure patient and were quite similar to his. He declined to be moved, actually did improve, and lived another 2 years. He enjoyed teasing me about the "mistake" that saved his life.

Anecdotes, even a large collection of them, are not data, as has oft been observed. I point out this episode only to suggest that a number of errors are never discovered, and, randomly, a few might be beneficial. If we expend alot of resources on error elimination, we may well increase the rate of their discovery. This will create a cylce of increasing recognition used to justify increasing "protocols" for prevention. Indeed, these protocols may ultimately lead to a reduced rate of certain types of errors.

But since we do not have protocols that address every conceivable error, we must be careful not to build a house of cards.  "Black swan" catastrophic errors may not be preventable.  A very slight increase in their rate caused by a system that has taken its eye off the ball to focus on rote procedures could make the whole quality effort a net loser for patieints.

-       I am one of the most nervous, least-self-trusting test takers you are ever going to meet.  If a test has an allotted 4 hours to take it, the earliest I have EVER left is 3 hours, 45 minutes in, because I re-check every answer 3 times.  In high school, New York gives out these delicious tests called Regents, which is kind of the end-all for a subject you’ve been studying all year.  You have to stay an hour and a half, have to leave after 3 (and I always stayed ‘til 3).  I developed this great system for the Regents where I’d take it once on scrap paper, once on the test booklet, and if my answers matched, THEN they could go on the bubble sheet.  Stressful for no reason, and probably ridiculous, but for 11-13 tests, that was my system.

-       I really like little white socks.  I don’t know why, but that’s pretty much all I wear in terms of inside-shoe wear.  I think the holiday socks are cute, and sometimes my feet are cold and I have to layer up with thicker, taller socks, but the default is the plain white ones.  Sometimes, I decorate them with Sharpie.

-       I was blessed enough to grow up with 4 sets of grandparents.  My mom’s parents, my dad’s  parents, my friend Tifini’s grandparents, and my friend Jackie’s grandparents.  Obviously, 2 sets weren’t recognized by anyone other than me, my parents, my friends, and them, but I absolutely did have 4 sets. 

-       In all honesty, I’m not a fan of the dark.  I’m not always ‘afraid’, but I don’t like it.  In fact, I can sleep with a TON of light on.  I actually kinda like it better when I can see what’s going on around me (so I KNOW the monsters aren’t there J).  So I can sleep with all the light, but I used to not be able to do noise AT ALL.  Only recently have I been able to fall asleep with the TV on, and that’s when the volume is down to 3 or 4.  What I’ve discovered is really interesting is as I’m going to bed, and I’m going to turn the TV off because my nightstand is right next to my head and I keep the remote there, I can’t remember where the ‘Power’ button is.  Ever.  It’s in the same place every night, and I never can find it.

-       When I was a freshman in college, I used to walk past these people on the street all the time who worked for this company called Children International.  I never stopped for them.  They’d try their darndest, but I felt I was a poor college freshman, how the heck would I ‘sponsor’ a child?  On Earth day, this blonde-haired woman stopped me and talked to me about it.  She said, “What’s 18 dollars a month?”.  I realized I had SO MUCH in comparison to this 18 dollars I’d be sending the adorable girl with the brown eyes whose family made $189 dollars a month.  It’s 22 bucks now, but I keep it up, going on 6 years later.  I carry her picture in my wallet, right in the front.  Rubylyn keeps me humble; she reminds me that it’s okay that I give money to homeless people, that I’ve bought people sandwiches or given away my gloves.  I may be the poorest person I know, but I have so much more than way too many people to be so selfish.

-       I absolutely HATE getting shocked.  Because my hair is so thick and curly, it’s really dry and conducts a lot of electricity, so I get shocked a lot all year round, but especially in winter.  It’s so bad that I actually touch other things to ground myself before I touch things like the car door or a handle I know will shock me. 

-       My foods can’t touch.  Like, if I’m having salad and chicken for dinner, and a leaf of lettuce touches a piece of chicken, both pieces are now inedible.  My dream would be to actually own those plates little kids eat off of with the dividers that make the plate into 3 sections.

-       When I was little, I fell down the stairs and cracked my head open.  Since that point, I am the SLOWEST person going down the stairs.  I used to get anxiety when I was in college about it, because the class buildings were 8-10 stories up and the elevators were too crowded on the way down, but I always felt like I was holding people up as I went down.  I’m the only person I know who would rather walk UP hill or UP a flight of stairs than down either.

-       I haven’t written in Times New Roman since I was in 7^th grade.  I think it’s just a terrible font, so I won’t use it.  Not even for professors who would say, “your paper is 3-5 pages, double-spaced, one-inch margins, in size 12 Times New Roman”.  To that I said, “Garamond, size 12 (or 13 in some cases)” and handed it in and NEVER got caught.  SUCK ON THAT, Will Kenton!

-       I don’t like clowns.  A lot of people say that statement, and mean it, but I don’t think any of them have the same rationale.  When I was 3,  my parents, our neighbors and I went to the circus.  A man in a clown suit said he was going into the audience to get a volunteer.  I was sitting on my mom’s lap, and the man took me off, handed me to Lori (the neighbor’s then-wife), and took my mom down.  We have pictures of her wearing a stupid had and banging on the drum, and everyone else there thought it a great time, but my memories of the day were of the marks Lori left in my arms holding me back as I tried to get to my mom, and HATING that clown.

-       The whites of my eyes are actually tinged kinda blue.  They were stronger when I was little, and seem to be fading (I looked up ‘Blue Sclera’ on several websites, and they said that’s normal).  I remember being in my AP Bio class and my teacher telling us about genetics and blue sclera, and how he didn’t believe I had it – he thought I meant I had blue eyes (I don't have blue eyes).  Then when he looked and saw I was right, he made me show EVERYONE; our class, his 2 other classes, the other bio teachers …

-       I haven’t really thrown up since the day before I turned 13.  If  you’re really interested in the deets, I can tell you exactly where I was, what I ate, what sports we were doing after lunch, which counselor tried to rush me to the bathroom…all of it.  But I’m 23 now, and I haven’t thrown up since then.

-       I can crack pretty much every joint in my body.  The usual fingers and toes, neck, and back, but I can also do my ankles, knees, hips, wrists, elbows, and shoulders.

-       My favorite number in the world is the number 4.  That, coupled with some minor OCD-stuff…I like to eat things in 4s, sometimes 8s (because 8 is two 4s).  Either I pick up 4 of an item (pretzel sticks, M&Ms, whatever) and then eat them one at a time, or if the item is small (like skittles), I would eat all 4 at once.  There have been times that only 3 of something is left, and I won’t take them .

-       I have really small handwriting.  Like, really small.  Everyone who sees it comments on it.  When I was student teaching, one of the ways I used to get my kids to calm down when they were heated was to let them look over my notes and try to decipher what I wrote.  It’s tiny, but it’s neat.  The kids usually can’t read it, but most of them ask me to ‘teach’ them how to ‘write so tiny’.

-       When I was in 6^th grade, I was picked on everyday.  This is, unfortunately, not an exaggeration.  I had decided over the summer to grow out my short hair, and that was when it started to change into the curly mess it is today.  It was frizzy, it was huge, and it was an easy target, and from early October until the start of 7^th grade, several times a day, I would be teased mercilessly.  I stopped looking people in the eye, just at the ground, but everyday, after lunch, I sat on the staircase outside my homeroom and cried.  There was even a point where it hurt so bad being so hated, I wanted to kill myself. I didn’t want to live anymore.  I never did anything about it (thankfully, it was more the idea of the pain stopping than figuring out ways to make it happen), but the idea was there.  The words people used to put me down are still with me today.  There are some people who used to be my biggest tormentors, and I see them now, and I’m still afraid of them.  They may have grown up and aren’t jerks anymore, but just like I’m still middle-school-me, they are, too.  Most people I’ve forgiven and was even friends with by high school, but there are a handful of boys who just their being near me sends me into a panic.  Whoever says ‘words don’t hurt’ has never been picked on.  Don’t believe that when you call someone a name that it doesn’t kill them, maybe worse than your fist.  I know that people who were calling me hurtful things meant it just for that minute, and wouldn’t have said anything if they knew I’d recall them 12 years later. But they did, and I do.  I’m still so paranoid because of that year.  When I see someone look at me, I assume they’re about to call me something.  When I hear people laughing around me, I assume it’s at me.  When people know that I’m silly and joke around with me, I take a lot of it personally without wanting to.  WATCH WHAT YOU SAY TO PEOPLE.  You never know when it’s going to stop affecting them.  I’ll let you know if what people said to me EVER stops hurting.
