Mesothelioma is a difficult situation to be handled with patience and care. Those who have been diagnosed of this asbestos linked cancer would require all the help they need from friends and family members to pull through the trauma psychologically. There is often the possibility of denial from family members who among other things may play the less concerned role.
What about a family member who really cares about the one that is afflicted but due to distance may be unable to help? If you find yourself in that category, there is a way you can show care from a distance and make the family member have a sense of belonging and strengthen them mentally.
