I used to have it bad when I was a kid growing up in the 50's and into the sixties. Doctors back in the days of the fifties didn't know how to treat Asthma,, they used to give me pills that did offer a bit of relief which was good. I missed many school days in the fifties with really bad Asthma attacks.
Then an atomizer spray thing with liquid medicine came out and it was much better at relieving the Asthma spells. Doctors used to tell my Mom that I had a good chance of outgrowing my Asthma and by the mid-sixties or so I rarely had the disease. That was good I guess I did outgrow the Asthma attacks but at times in this old age I can feel it every now and then trying to creep back in, I sure hope it doesn't. I have not had an Asthma attack now in decades and I hope I never have another one, bad stuff.
