“Everything I have in my life is due to (my employer) Saint-
Gobain including my lung cancer.”
”I used to be an athlete once, now if I even walk a little faster
or climb a few flights of stairs, I am breathless. I can’t even run
a few paces.”
“The pain is very strong, it [is] right through my chest and
between my shoulders. I feel like an empty vessel which does
not have lungs and a heart inside.”
“I loved my father, but I hate asbestos.”
“I have lost my father, mother and one brother to asbestos
cancer; of the rest of our family, one brother is battling
mesothelioma and I have pleural plaques. My other two
brothers appear, for the time being, free of any sign of asbestos-
related disease but the sword of Damocles hangs over us all.”
“My husband Alan paid the ultimate price for his exposure to
asbestos – his life. One life lost to an asbestos-caused disease is
tragic; hundreds of thousands of lives lost is unconscionable.”
“Asbestos diseases and asbestos cancers claim hundreds
of thousands of lives each year. They are not legal
inconveniences, political obstacles or financial statement
entries. They are death and suffering incarnate.”
“I started with 25 (fellow workers). There’s two of us left, the
others are dead with asbestos. The graveyard is full of my
(trade union) members. I have a black tie I constantly wear,
attending funerals of asbestos cases.”
