I am currently 43 years old and I never thought that I would have asthma. When I was a little girl, I played every sport I could, and my mother practically had to chase me down to get me to come inside. When I found it hard to do things that I would do everyday, I knew something was wrong. My doctor informed me that I had developed asthma and that I should take is easy.

I hope that this card will help, and if it does I will be so very thankful for it!
