How bad is asbestos for health?

[MikeTruck]

My house has pieces of asbestos from everywhere. My neighbor said that a friend of him had mesothelioma because of asbestos, now I am thinking that I should change, need you opinion.

Why is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos still kills around 5000 workers each year, this is more than the number of people killed on the road.
Around 20 tradesmen die each week as a result of past exposure
However, asbestos is not just a problem of the past. It can be present today in any building built or refurbished before the year 2000.
When materials that contain asbestos are disturbed or damaged, fibers are released into the air. When these fibers are inhaled they can cause serious diseases. These diseases will not affect you immediately; they often take a long time to develop, but once diagnosed, it is often too late to do anything. This is why it is important that you protect yourself now.

Asbestos can cause the following fatal and serious diseases:
Mesothelioma
Asbestos-related lung cancer
Asbestosis
Pleural thickening

My father had problems related to asbestos cancer. To tell you the truth till now I don't know what was the problem exactly. My father felt very bad and when we took him to the hospital they told us that there was nothing to worry about and gave him some drugs to take. But the drugs made him feel bad. When we took him to the hospital again there were no more chances. We lost him after a month. It was a very hard time. Till now I think that the doctors could help him but they didn't. I even looked on the internet to find similar cases and found that there were some hospitals that Refuses to Disclose Asbestos Records Amidst Mesothelioma Death. So I guess we weren't the first one... Very sad. Take care!

Everyone, absolutely everyone has difficult moments in life, no matter what they are, everyone treats them differently, I treat these moments very strongly. I decided to turn for help to the service https://primetherapist.com/what-is-trau ... s-disorder . I registered very quickly, because the site is very simple in terms of functionality, that is, it is very clear, even to such a distant user like me. One of the employees of this website called me and I made an appointment with him to see a psychologist. I went once, all was ok.
