My name is Lorraine Kember; my husband was a victim of asbestos. Having spent a few short months in the asbestos mining town of Wittenoom in Western Australia when he was seven years old, he was diagnosed with pleural mesothelioma at the age of 52 and given a prognosis of 3 to 9 months. He survived for 2 years during which I cared for him at home until his death in 2001. He was 54 years old.
I have written a book about my husband’s courageous battle with mesothelioma and of my ‘emotional journey’ as I cared for him and improved the quality of his life.
My book titled ‘Lean on Me’ Cancer through a Carer’s Eyes which is highly recommended by cancer councils and palliative care organizations world wide; includes the methods and tools I used to control my husband’s pain plus many excerpts and poems from my personal diary (in which I wrote daily throughout the two years of my husband’s illness and beyond)
I invite you to visit my website www.lean-on-me.net to view Dr’s recommendations, Reviews and Readers Letters.
In 2004 as a result of writing my book, I was an invited speaker at the Global Asbestos Congress held in Tokyo Japan and have since moved into public speaking on a professional level.
I am writing to enquire if you will kindly assist me in my endeavor to bring inspiration and strength, to those who are currently on the same journey as I have traveled - by adding my details and website link to your mesothelioma resources. If you are agreeable to this would it be possible for my link to be accompanied by the following text.
