                 appellee.

       Volvo Trucks of North America, Inc. and Liberty Insurance Corporation (employer)

appeal a decision of the Workers’ Compensation Commission finding that Channon Melissa

Maycock (claimant) provided sufficient medical evidence to prove she suffered from an

occupational disease and was entitled to compensation. Employer also contends that if the

medical evidence proved claimant suffered from any type of occupational disease, the evidence

established, at best, the occupational exacerbation of a preexisting ordinary disease of life. We

have reviewed the record and the commission’s opinion and find that this appeal is without

merit. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the commission in its final opinion. See

Maycock v. Volvo Trucks of North America, Inc., VWC File No. 239-91-20 (Dec. 7, 2009). We

dispense with oral argument and summarily affirm because the facts and legal contentions are
