Even though around 10,000 people die each year around the US, but not much is known about mesothelioma. It was recorded as early as 1898 for the first case of mesothelioma linked to asbestos inhaling. Then more cases started to appear year by year until now where the number reaches more than 100,000.

This fact has been established over the years. Mesothelioma is a life threatening disease. Mesothelioma Cancer has also been brought into focus that asbestos fibers and dust that pass into your body. The main cause of Mesothelioma cancer is the process of respiration. Yet there are many shadowy sides related to Mesothelioma disease to be revealed out. Many researches are being conducted worldwide for the disease can be completely cured, so that diagnosis of Mesothelioma can be done at an early stage.

It’s reported that 1.3 million US hard workers of the construction industries and those involved in buildings and equipment maintenance are at risk of acquiring mesothelioma by inhaling asbestos, according to the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine. You most certainly think that a mesothelioma research funding should be started. Well you’re right, and there is! It’s called the Mesothelioma Applied Research Foundation or shortly called MARF.

The Mesothelioma Applied Research Foundation have clearly stated in its mission that what are the steps it is going to take to eradicate this deadly and incurable disease from the whole world. The members of this Foundation are working day and night to make this world free from Mesothelioma and its allied kind of diseases.

The mission statement made by the Foundation directly as stated:

Funding the highest quality and most promising research projects from around the world through our rigorous peer-reviewed process; helping patients connect with national meso experts and obtain the most up-to-date information on treatment options; and advocating in Washington D.C. for federal mesothelioma research funding to stop this national tragedy.

Hope is the last ray of life. If we go by this universal truth there is still hope that a day will come when Mesothelioma will be the name of a disease just in the Medical Science text books. Doctors will be given a historical account about this disease but in the real physical world they won’t have to treat any such patient suffering from this type of cancer.

Let’s pray for the noble cause and be the part of the noble mission being carried out by the MARF, Mesothelioma Applied Research Foundation.
