Tragically, the majority of the people I speak with about mesothelioma have never heard of it; let alone what causes this terrible disease.<br><br>We have to keep up the pressure on politicians to hold true to their word and back critical funding for mesothelioma.<br><br>Hopefully through the dedication of people such as you we can help draw more awareness to this disease.Scott ThomasFri, 18 Apr 2008 16:49:08 -0000http://www.mymeso.org/2008/04/11/ask-clinton-to-announce-funding-for-lung-cancer-research/#comment-2106948I was at Capital Hill the day that Sen. Hillary Clinton &amp; Sen. Chuck Hagel met with the group from LCA. I remember her telling us that together they were putting forth a Senate proposal. I was more impressed by Sen. Hagel than Hillary but, that was just my opinion. I now think I was right, I think she has forgotten her words to us and needs to be reminded. I don't want anyone to die from this beast! But give us funding! Yes, people die from breast cancer, I have 2 cousins with it. But I didn't ask for this disease anymore than they did. But, I want the survival percentage for all of us that they have and we can't get it unless funding is made available in amounts that will make a real difference!<br><br>Hugs to all,<br>PamPam MoffittSun, 13 Apr 2008 20:54:09 -0000
