Mesothelioma Information, Support, and Resources

Mesothelioma is a cancer of the linings of the lungs, chest, abdomen, and the organs contained in those areas, rather than a cancer that forms in the lungs.

Mesothelioma is most frequently caused by exposure to asbestos. Asbestos is a group of naturally occurring minerals. Asbestos releases strong, microscopic fibers that may injure the protective linings surrounding the body's organs.

We have received many requests to provide information about mesothelioma, resources for treatment options, and support to those dealing with mesothelioma. We hope this website will help to meet that need.
