Mesothelioma Lawyer Center

A couple of years ago, I wrote a post about mesothelioma. It contains some basic information and a link to a fact sheet.

I recently received a request to post about a group that helps people with mesothelioma, the Mesothelioma Lawyer Center. People with this awful and deadly disease need all of the help that they can get. So even though I've not been keeping this blog up to date, I am posting this information in case it is helpful to someone.

Who Should our Role Models Be?

I believe that every day people doing every day things who are trying to do good in the world should be our true role models, not "sports heroes", actors and actresses, pop stars, politicians, super models, and other celebrities. Let them all do what they do best - which is athletics, acting, music, getting elected, modeling, and acting like celebrities. But unless they are a true role model, let's not pretend that they are simply because they can dunk a basketball or look great in a swim suit or win an Oscar. You and I are role models when we do something good in the world.
