Lifetime of Exposure to Asbestos Results in Mesothelioma for UK Builder

A builder died of mesothelioma caused by a lifetime spent working with asbestos, a coroner ruled today in the United Kingdom, according to a Feb. 21, 2008 article in the Maidenhead Advertiser.

The construction worker was 68 when he died of cancer last year after years spent working in the business.

The news article said he was diagnosed with the lung cancer mesothelioma in early 2007.
