This was my very first interview on TV in early 2007. I had not heard of the Prof at the time and had been diagnosed with Mesothelioma 3 months before. I had been told I had 6-9 months to live and was still shell shocked about it. I had lost my dad to cancer, not mesothelioma, in August 2006 and was devistated to hear that I now had a life threatening illness. this hasn’t given me or my family time to grieve for him.
