Shocking stories always get the most mileage. Recently news of a “Tree Man” in Indonesia has been taking the world by storm. The story of this unfortunate man, however, is far from fantastical. Just like every other person in the world, Dede Koswara as the Tree Man is legitimately known, and has one main aim in life and that is to provide for his family and his children. He suffers from a rare disease that cause wart like growths all over his body. These almost look like wooden protrusions, hence, the name Tree Man.
Trying to do his Best
He has children from his first marriage that he supports to the best of his ability by being a part of a circus entourage. His treatment is expensive and in the absence of any insurance or claims, this man suffers every day. His only dream is to live long enough to see his grandchildren and provide for his children as long as possible.
Mesothelioma Crushes Hopes and Dreams
In the U.S., the horrible fear of leaving one’s family to fend on their own, with the increasing prices and standards of living, in the event that something were to happen to the bread winner in the family exists in every heart. How much more difficult is it when the disease that you are diagnosed with is caused by another’s negligence? Mesothelioma lawyers see thousands of cases wherein a person is diagnosed by this deadly cancer due to employer negligence and seeks reprisal in form of compensation. What else can they do?
Common Hopes and Dreams
There is a specialized group of lawyers known as mesothelioma lawyers who deal with these cases. They are well versed with the law pertaining to the disease and claims. Mesothelioma attorneys are also sensitive to the needs of their client. They enable a client to provide for their family by ensuring that the client receives the best possible settlements. In some cases, mesothelioma lawyers manage to obtain millions of dollars in compensation for the client and their family. While the going is tough with mesothelioma treatment, like the Tree Man, most clients only wish to ensure that their families are well taken care of.
