Graveyard Wittenoom

Despite the fact that Wittenoom is responsible for many deaths, there are some people who refuse to ban tourists who are in the city. Without the people who reside there are still a feeling of stress emotionally and financially because of the lack of tourist trade, but when I find an article in the West Australian Newspapers Wednesday, 19 May with the title “The City as Will not Die,” I was shocked and puzzled by the comments, with a resident in the town who said he lived in Wittenoom since 1966 and, according to his knowledge, no one died during mesothelioma this time.

Nobody needed or consolation in the knowledge that thirty eight years have passed without the impact of Mesothelioms in Whittenoom because it is a known fact that many years between inhalation of dust, asbestos and his legacy deadly mesothelioma.

I was tragically aware of this fact, when my husband has a diagnosis mesothelioma 2001, after he lived in Wittenoom for a few months, as a child. About five years have passed between the inhalation of dust from asbestos and its diagnosis.

I, for one not to think Wittenoom without pain. He killed my husband and his father, and many die, are closer in the coming years, following her to live. Not known is who for the chaos that this terrible disease has lost, and the love they could be an empathy for Wittenoom. It is always with a murderer as soon as the dust einatembaren remains in the lungs until it proposes without warning, and there is no hope, no means to this terrible disease.

For residents who wish to remain there, it is their decision. However, for the promotion and the tourists to get Wittenoom, although they know the dangers of the inhalation of asbestos dust, it is irresponsible that the company, which has mining of this monster and refused to suspend the operation to close, even after He talked about his existence.

Wittenoom may very well be a picturesque place to live, the other residents - for me, it’s a big graveyard, filled with all the love die, and pain in the hearts of all those who have lost it. I would like to see that Israel from the map forever.
