(openPR) - For people with malignant mesothelioma, a rare and serious cancer caused by asbestos, finding information on their illness can be as challenging as its symptoms. The Law Offices of James Sokolove (www.jimsokolove.com) hopes to change this with the launch of the Mesothelioma Resource Center, a comprehensive online resource designed for mesothelioma victims as well as their caregivers and families.
“So many of these individuals already feel alone in their struggle,” says Attorney Jim Sokolove, founder and principal of the Law Offices of James Sokolove (LOJS). “The fact that they can’t find reliable information on their condition just amplifies the sense of isolation. The Mesothelioma Resource Center was designed not only to provide news on treatments and clinical trials, but also to bring together those affected by this disease.”
The Mesothelioma Resource Center was created with the support of organizations such as The Mesothelioma Applied Research Foundation (MARF) and the International Mesothelioma Program (IMP) at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston. In addition to providing background on mesothelioma causes and its link to asbestos, the website offers tips on maintaining a high quality of life while coping with the disease. A discussion board is also featured where visitors can find support and advice from others who have been affected by malignant mesothelioma.
“While developing the Mesothelioma Resource Center, we sought the assistance of leading authorities in mesothelioma research and treatment,” Sokolove says. “Whether they’re looking for ways to manage their symptoms or trying to find a qualified mesothelioma specialist in their area, site visitors can be confident that they’re getting the most cutting-edge information available today.”
Social worker Mellissa Hayon, LICSW, says that education plays a vital role in battling an illness. “Although coping with a serious disease is never easy, the process of becoming more informed provides victims with a sense of empowerment over their disease—and hope for their prognosis.”
