Mesothelioma is a rare form of lung cancer with about 3,000 new diagnosed cases each year. While this type of cancer is rare, it is aggressive, and often results in costly medical treatments for patients as they fight the disease. Mesothelioma is often linked to asbestos exposure, which is a harmful mineral that was widely used in various products, ranging from automobile parts to home insulation, before the 1980s. While a mesothelioma diagnosis may be scary and leave you feeling alone, you and your family deserve to fight for justice if you were diagnosed with the deadly disease after being negligently exposed to asbestos. 

At The Williams Law Firm, P.C., our esteemed founding attorney, Joe Williams, has been securing successful verdicts for his clients diagnosed with mesothelioma for more than three decades. He has never lost a mesothelioma case for a client, punctuating his success and skill in fighting for justice for those who were exposed to asbestos and now face the road ahead with a mesothelioma diagnosis. It is our goal to fight for the justice and fair compensation you deserve by providing the personalized and dedicated legal representation necessary to help you build a strong case.

What Are Mesothelioma Support Groups?

Mesothelioma support groups help patients and their loved ones better manage the mental and emotional toll that receiving a mesothelioma diagnosis can have on individuals. These groups can also be a safe place to share one’s experiences and learn from others who may be able to relate on a unique level. Support groups can provide a patient and their loved ones with the community that may be able to give them the strength to keep fighting. 

There are many benefits to joining a mesothelioma support group. Some of these benefits include the following:

• Receive emotional validation: Having the support of a group of people who can truly empathize with your situation can provide a judgment-free and confidential space for you to share your story. Sharing what you and your loved ones are going through can help you feel less alone, lessening the emotional burden you may be carrying.
• Develop healthy coping skills: At a support group, you will hear from other people about how they are working through their struggles. This can help give you a new perspective on managing your own journey after your diagnosis.
• Learn practical information: Support group meetings are usually led by medical professionals, like nurses. These professional facilitators can provide you with trusted information on respite care, treatment options, mental health services, and other useful resources that will be helpful to you and your family members.
• Provide a chance for social connection: When you become part of a mesothelioma support group, you may feel less isolated and more connected to others who are also processing the impacts of a mesothelioma diagnosis.

While there are various support groups available to patients and their loved ones in different states, finding the right mesothelioma support group for you will depend on your needs and preferences. 

What Other Resources Are Available to Mesothelioma Patients and Their Families?

In addition to support groups, patients and family members of those diagnosed with mesothelioma have various other resources at their disposal. These resources are provided in hopes of making this difficult time as stress-free as possible. 

Some of the resources available to mesothelioma patients and their loved ones include:

• Counseling
