England Mother of Two Dies from Mesothelioma Tied to Childhood Asbestos Exposure

Elaine Ellery, a mother of two in Norfolk, England, died at 67 from mesothelioma. A Norfolk Coroner’s Court ruled her cancer was caused by asbestos exposure she endured as a child from her father’s work clothes and factory environment, including hugs and helping wash his overalls; her father died earlier from an asbestos-related industrial disease.
