SuperSibs.org - When a child is diagnosed with cancer, EVERYONE in the family needs healing, including the siblings. These vulnerable brothers and sisters are often left with insufficient support from which to understand that they're not alone, they're not at fault and that their feelings are valid. Together, we can help siblings understand — especially during the fight against cancer — that they are special and important people, too, and that there is support available for their unique needs. SuperSibs! has worked tirelessly to help change the culture of pediatric oncology to ensure that sibling support is integrated into all aspects of care. While we’ve made great strides, we have a long way to go to help these thousands of vulnerable children and teens heal.

Mesothelioma Causes - The Mesothelioma Cancer Center offers the most comprehensive and updated information on asbestos exposure and mesothelioma including what to do if you have received a mesothelioma prognosis.
Mesothelioma, a rare cancer of the lining of the lung, is caused by exposure to asbestos. At some point in our lives, nearly all of us have been exposed to asbestos in the air we breathe and the water we drink; from natural deposits in the earth, and from the deterioration of asbestos products around us. While most of us do not become ill as a result of our exposure, because of long dormancy periods, mesothelioma and other asbestos-related diseases can remain undetected for over a decade before the patient shows any signs of illness. An exposure of as little as one or two months can result in mesothelioma 30 or 40 years later.

ABCD: After Breast Cancer Diagnosis - ABCD: After Breast Cancer Diagnosis was founded by a group of women who realized that having breast cancer is about much more than biopsies, surgery and chemotherapy.

But not everyone diagnosed with breast cancer knows where to find that kind of help. That’s where ABCD comes in.
