Our Mission

Meso Care exists to reduce confusion at diagnosis. We synthesize evidence‑based guidance and highlight questions to ask at each step of care. Every section links to deeper reading and practical tools:

  • Mesothelioma overview: causes, staging, diagnosis, and prognosis.
  • Treatment: surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, immunotherapy, and multimodal care.
  • Support: groups, caregiver resources, mental health, nutrition, and travel/lodging assistance.
  • Exposure: where exposure happens, high‑risk jobs, and safety checks.
  • Legal: high‑level options, timelines, and what to ask a firm.

Our aim is simple: help you feel informed, prepared, and supported—without overwhelm.

Community Support

Find moderated support groups, caregiver resources, and practical guides to reduce stress and make day‑to‑day decisions easier. Start with week‑one checklists, mental health tips, and ways to organize help.

How We Help

We bring together clear, clinician‑reviewed guidance and practical tools so families can make informed decisions without overwhelm. Our approach blends medical accuracy with real‑world experience from patient advocates, focusing on the steps that matter most in the first weeks and beyond.

  • Plain‑language articles reviewed by clinicians and advocates
  • Checklists and question prompts for specialist visits
  • Filterable directories for treatment centers and support groups
  • Patient advocate support to identify next steps and resources

Whether you are newly diagnosed, seeking a second opinion, or coordinating day‑to‑day care, our goal is to help you feel informed, prepared, and supported.

Getting Started

Getting Started

Start strong with clear next steps: gather key records (pathology, imaging CDs, reports), prepare a concise exposure history, and line up a second opinion at a high‑volume center. Bring a short list of goals and questions to your consult, invite a support person, and ask about trials, timelines, and symptom control. We’ll help you organize what to bring and what to ask.
