ITV

ITV have come out to do a piece to camera concerning the MoD payout. It has been quite busy here with phone calls and friends wishing me well.
All in all it has been a very positive experience. I would like to direct myself into campaigning for more awareness about asbestos and also helping others in my situation.
I would really like something done about the Plueral plaque payouts as this has been stopped by the goverment and should be turned around. How anyone can say that Pleural plaque is not an industrial disease is beyond me. My father would not have had that illness if he hadn’t worked with asbestos.

He was lucky enough to get the payment but that all changed in 2006. My father had Pleural plaque, we watched this strong, happy, positive man struggle to breathe, He has a walking stick and it did disable him. It took away the years he should have had and it removed him from our family. Like me, He should never have gone through it. One thing it didn’t take was his character, he was so good to be with and loved his old black and white Charlie Chaplin films.
He had a great sense of humour and was always very wise.
I miss him and so do my children.
