My dad was diagnosed with malignant mesothelioma in October 2020. That same night, with tears in my eyes I searched frantically to learn about this terrible cancer and what we were facing. I stumbled across the Mesothelioma Center at asbestos.com. Despite the late hour, I received a call from Karen Selby (on staff nurse) less than a minute after entering my information on their website contact form.
That call birthed our very helpful connection with several other persons in this organization who helped us. Sadly, my dad passed away just 4 months after his diagnosis. Aaron Munz successfully guided my parents and, following my dad's death, me and my mother in the sbestos-related claims to the VA.
The process of working with the VA takes time, but the Mesothelioma Center was right there with us every step of the way.
Thank you Aaron and everyone at the Mesothelioma Center for the work you do and the help you have been to me in my endeavor to handle this process for my mother. Thank you for your quick responses to all of my emails and for giving me good information and advice. My God bless you for the service you render to hurting and scared families
