Rays Nyes Biography.

The Reason I am  involved in Asbestos and mesothelioma is simple really. I was exposed to Asbestos at an early age ,15 years old and starting an Apprenticeship in the Royal Naval Shipyard at Chatham. It was of course in abundance throughout  Naval Ships.. During work on board it was an everyday hazard and was all around us.
 It was impossable to  avoid it. Later I met My  sweetheart who became my wife and best friend. In fact she is my life. Unknown at  the time she was breathing in those lethal asbestos fibres. And to compound it when we got married she was washing my dusty clothes.
The deed was done those fibres  were laying in wait. 49 years  they waited inside her.
Then on a fatal day in 2009 she was rushed into hospital wiith breathing problems.
She was later  diagnosed with the Terminal Asbestos related Cancer Mesothelioma and prognosis was 3 months..
During thhe next 7 years she underwent 4 years of various Chemotherapy treatments and a Drugs Trial  that did not work. Further Tests and Biopsys ,only to find she did not meet the criteria. Then another year of Treatment on Chemo. After which her tumors were continuing to grow.. With little or no hope she set about  searching for a miracle . That came in the form of an Immunotherapy Trial.
That was the turning point for us. The Guilt that I had felt was a little abated because after  2 years on this trial she is now in  a state of Complete response.  So with this second chance at life she just wanted to reach out and help other victims of this desease.
It is my role to  help her in every way I can. I am her carer. Her Chauffer her secretary her Vice Chairman in her own Charity. What ever she needs of me. I am there for her.
Its not an easy road we have travelled over the past 8 years todate 2017 . But  I owe it to her for in my ignorance it was my  fault  that she has suffered this mesothelioma.  I will  do what I can because I love her and she deserves  all I can Give..
