WENN has picked up on the Freewinds fiasco and uses it as a celeb piece.

Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes, John Travolta and Kelly Preston have been told to seek medical attention, after deadly asbestos was found on a cruise ship they have all sailed on.

What I find notable about the article is this statement from a doctor they contacted about asbestos exposure:

“Once diagnosed with mesothelioma, the victim has six months to a year to live. It gradually reduces lung function until the victim is no longer able to breathe and dies.”

I guess that’s an escape plan for someone who’s been sailing the cancerboat for over 20 years. Exteriorization due to mesothelioma is a great way to avoid a lengthy jail term.
