Parents could only look at their children with love, sympathy in their eyes when their children were attack by asthma.
Asthma is a no ordinary respiratory system chronic disease which constricts the airways and they are inflamed. As a person who suffers from such disease for forty years, I know how it feels when such disease attacks. Only people with asthma understand the feeling.
It is an inheritance disease and can be carried for generations to generations. I heard there is no cure for such illness. The medicines you take only controls the symptoms of the disease such as short breaths and coughing.
So kids with these diseases are prohibited to do so many things; to eat all those prohibited foods, like the yummy shrimps, yellow vegetable and fruits and crustaceans like crabs and lobster. All my favorites actually!
I live my life as a sheltered child. Less play. Less involvement. But I do not want my kids to live the kind of life I did. Where in I could play. I could not eat those because after hours of doing so- my asthma would attack.
Thanks for Asthma Summer Camps. These camps helped my child understand his disease. He knows what to eat and not to meat and why? In my time, I did not know the reason why I had to do such things!
In Asthma Summer Camps they were taught on how to take care of themselves. They were taught what they should avoid.
Asthma Summer Camps like Camp Duncan located in Ingleside, Illinois made a difference for some of our family’s kids. Some of my nephews got enrolled there lat year. The kids were just enthusiastic and learning so many things not only about asthma but camping experiences.
Now I am looking for the same camps in our area.
