If someone was to have an asthma attack right in front of you, and you know they could die if something isn't done well and fast enough . . . What would you do to help? Asthma deaths are the most tragic evidence of lack of awareness of the importance of asthma management and control, and basic asthma first aid. What do you know about asthma is a practical guide that will help you understand asthma, what you can do as a sufferer or what support you as parent, family, friend or carer can give to someone living with asthma to enable them learn how to manage their symptoms so they could live healthy, active and symptom-free lives. "If the art of living is the ability to use one's long suffering in a positive way, Martina has provided a superb example of how this is to be accomplished . . . We don't always get to choose what happens in this life, but we can choose to see whatever challenges we face in a positive way. This is an amazing book that I will recommend to my family, friend and colleagues" C. Carl MD -Association of American Medical Colleges, Washington DC, USA
