Эллен Паттон, рекордсменка по выживанию при мезотелиоме, присоединилась к организации Mesothelioma Hope

Patton, the longest-known-living pleural mesothelioma survivor, joins the organization's patient resources as Mesothelioma Awareness Month begins. CHESTNUT HILL, MA / ACCESS Newswire / September 8, 2026 / Mesothelioma Hope, a leading online resource providing education, patient advocacy, and support for those diagnosed with mesothelioma, has announced a partnership with Ellen Patton, the longest-living pleural mesothelioma survivor in the United States. Patton, who was diagnosed in 2001 and given 12 to 18 months to live, has shared her experience with Mesothelioma Hope and reviewed several of the organization's educational resources from a survivor's perspective. These include its free Pleural Mesothelioma Guide, Immunotherapy Guide, and Survivors Guide. The partnership begins as Mesothelioma Awareness Month gets underway, ahead of Mesothelioma Awareness Day on September 26. Patton's diagnosis came after she went to her doctor with trouble breathing. Surgeons opened her chest, intending to remove the cancer, and found it had already spread too far to operate. Chemotherapy, the other standard treatment option available to her at the time, was considered too risky. She later traveled to a clinic in the Bahamas for an experimental immunotherapy treatment, years before immunotherapy became a standard treatment option for some patients with mesothelioma in the United States. Patton paid for the treatment herself after her insurance refused to cover it and administered up to 12 injections a day. Over 25 years after her diagnosis, Patton continues to share her story and has advocated for asbestos awareness, including through past volunteer work with the Asbestos Disease Awareness Organization (ADAO). "It's important for me to share my story so that I can get the word out that there is hope," Patton said. Why This Partnership Matters for Patients A long-term survivor's perspective. Patton was initially given a prognosis of 12 to 18 months. More than 25 years later, her experience offers newly diagnosed patients and their families the perspective of someone who has lived with mesothelioma for decades. Firsthand experience with an emerging treatment. Patton pursued a treatment she described as immunotherapy when it was not available to her in the United States and was not covered by her insurance. "It definitely was worth every second and every penny that I had," she said. Advice grounded in decades of navigating mesothelioma. Patton encourages newly diagnosed patients to seek out the right doctors and other professionals and to find people who understand their goals. A survivor's voice in patient resources. Patton has reviewed Mesothelioma Hope's Pleural Mesothelioma Guide, Immunotherapy Guide, and Survivors Guide, providing feedback informed by her experience as a long-term survivor. Her story and perspective are also featured in other materials throughout the Mesothelioma Hope site.

Doch jetzt zeichnet sich mit der benötigten Energie der nächste große Flaschenhals ab. Neue KI-Rechenzentren benötigen nicht mehr einige Megawatt, sondern zum Teil mehrere Gigawatt Leistung – so viel wie mehrere moderne Kernkraftwerksblöcke. Damit beginnt ein weltweites Wettrennen um verfügbare Stromkapazitäten. Hyperscaler sichern sich bereits über langfristige Verträge gewaltige Energiemengen, während Stromnetze und Erzeugungskapazitäten mit dem Ausbau kaum Schritt halten können. Zusätzlich verschärfen geopolitische Risiken rund um den Iran-Krieg und die Straße von Hormus die Situation. Für Energieversorger und ihre Zulieferer könnte damit ein goldenes Zeitalter beginnen. Steigende Nachfrage, langfristige Abnahmeverträge und wachsende Strompreise schaffen ein Umfeld, in dem ausgewählte Unternehmen zum nächsten großen KI-Trade werden könnten. In unserem aktuellen Spezialreport stellen wir fünf Aktien vor, die besonders stark vom explodierenden Energiehunger der KI profitieren könnten – und bei Anlegern bislang teilweise noch unter dem Radar laufen.
