A mom of three says she is used to hug her dad as a child and he was covered in asbestos. I believe this my father-in-law died of cancer he worked around asbestos and so did my grandfather. http://articles.news.aol.com/news/_a/woman-says-she-got-cancer-by-hugging/

Wow! That is so sad! In the article, it states that people diagnosed with this cancer normal survival rate after symptoms is 6 months to a year.
I can see why she would be suing the company. She will be leaving her kids behind without a mother to care for them!
Ouch!

I read the newstory and it is very sad. I don't blame her for sueing the company. I wonder how many people have worked, went to school or lived in an apartment that had asbestos in it and didn't know. I know the old hospital here and buildings surrounding it, they can't do anything with them because of the asbestos.
