Plumber passes away from mesothelioma cancer

It has been reported that a plumber recently passed away from lung mesothelioma- a cancer caused by exposure to asbestos. It is likely that the man was exposed to asbestos while working as a plumber from the 1950s to the 1970s. As a plumber, he worked with asbestos insulation while installing plumbing. He was diagnosed with mesothelioma cancer decades later, in 1981, when a routine X-ray revealed a spot on his lung. The spot was an indicator of mesothelioma cancer and it was soon discovered that the cancer had already spread to all of his vital organs.
