So my mom got diagnosed in August and we're in Phoenix now but she's originally from Harrisburg, PA. Like she worked at this textile plant there in the 70s and 80s, and we're trying to figure out if we can file a claim since that's where the exposure happened.
I've been googling like crazy and the statute of limitations thing is stressing me out because I keep seeing different dates depending on the website. Does it matter that we're filing from Arizona now but the exposure was in PA? I'm already juggling her oncology appointments and my teaching job, and adding legal stuff to this feels like it's gonna break me honestly.
Has anyone here dealt with filing in Pennsylvania specifically? Like what did they actually ask for when you contacted them? Medical records I get, but I'm worried we don't have enough documentation from back in the 70s. Her old employer isn't even around anymore as far as we can tell.
Any pointers would help because right now I'm just trying to get through each day and make sure mom's comfortable, and this claim stuff feels important but also like it's not gonna happen fast enough and I don't even know where to start.
Thanks if anyone's been through this
