Asthma isn’t fun. It affects my life. I wish I didn’t have it. It ruins fun times, like going outside and running. It’s been the worst thing that happened to me so far in my life.

When I run I have to stop to catch my breath a lot. I never get to do anything. My favorite sport is basketball which is hard to do because I have to run a lot. But for some things its normal, like pets, they don’t bother me or allergies. That is what it is like to have asthma.
