About a week ago a women by the name of Heather reached out to me about Mesothelioma Awareness day which is today and wanted me to help support the cause after reading her story it would be a pleasure to do this and bring awareness to the seriousness of it. Before going on her website I didn't know about Mesothelioma as I am sure many of us don't unless we know someone who was diagnosed with it. In honor of Mesothelioma Awareness Day and in honor of those won the battle, lost the battle or are in the middle of the battle right now I am donating my social network.
Mesothelioma is a rare form of cancer caused by exposure to Asbestos, that develops from cells of the mesothelium, the protective lining that covers many of the internal organs of the body. About 3,000 people are diagnosed with Mesothelioma a year and given around 10 months to live. Heather was diagnosed with Mesothelioma and given 15 months to live 3 months after giving birth to her beautiful daughter. 7 years later heather is a mesothelioma survivor, she has made it her job to spread the word and awareness about mesothelioma. You can continue reading about her story and journey on her website www.mesothelioma.com/heather/awareness
Today being Mesothelioma Awareness Day Heather is asking that we donate our social status, give your voice to the victims and spread hope for those who are still in the fight. Go on the link above and donate your network status for a great cause. Thank you.
