"Hugging my dad gave me terminal cancer"

That’s not all that novel a claim. Many people have claimed exposure from that type of contact. Although it’s unlikely that’s the extent of her claim. She probably also was around when her mom shook out his clothes daily, helped mom wash them, and breathed fibers nearly every day dad went to work.

Are you doubting that she couldn’t be exposed in that manner, Kevin?

And there will be some dirtbag MD to support this junk science. Talk about bedding the trial lawyers and clogging the court rooms. Physician – profiteer with the trial attorneys when someone else is the defendant… then whine when you are the one being sued.

No mention of any tissue samples. Asbestos fibers are persistent and will be found in lung tissues for the rest of a person’s life. It is also quite easy to recognize under the microscope on exam of tissues.
So if she is claiming exposure caused illness, then first she has to show exposure. Where are the asbestose fibers?
