Abstract
Mesothelioma was the furthest thing from Brian Kember's mind when at the age of fifty two he began to experience shortness of breath. Exposed to Asbestos as a child living with his parents in the asbestos mining town of Wittenoom in Western Australia; he could not have imagined that forty five years later, he would be diagnosed with pleural mesothelioma and given a prognosis of three to nine months. So began Brian's courageous two year battle with this debilitating disease and his wife Lorraine's emotional journey of care.
