Support for Michigan Navy Veterans Facing Mesothelioma
Detroit, MI – In a heartfelt call to action, the Michigan Mesothelioma Victims Center is reaching out to navy veterans throughout Michigan who are facing the daunting challenges of a mesothelioma or lung cancer diagnosis. If you or a loved one served on a navy surface ship, especially prior to the mid-1980s, you might be at risk and deserve help navigating this tough path.
Understanding the Risks
Asbestos exposure remains a significant concern for many veterans. The numbers are sobering: veterans, particularly those who spent time on surface ships, represent the largest group at risk for developing mesothelioma or lung cancer due to occupational exposure to asbestos. Many of these veterans worked in positions that put them directly in contact with this harmful substance, whether as part of a ship’s repair crew, maintenance team, or in machine shops. The danger increases for those who spent extensive time helping at shipyards alongside workers using asbestos-laden materials.
