3. Seek support with others going through the same illness.
Even in the cases of rare disease, you are not the only person going through the experience. Meeting other people who also have mesothelioma can be very helpful for coping with the disease. Health care team can often help patients find support groups that meet in person or even on-line. With peer support groups, mesothelioma patients can ask other patients questions, receive understanding support, and learn from the experiences of others.
