Asthma

My asthma has been the worse it has ever been this year. It has been really bad the last month. I had asthma. I had a really bad attack last week. I could barely drive home I was having such a bad attack. I beeped the horn a few times and my son came out, came over to the car, looked at me and went back in the house. He was awesome. He went inside, grabbed my inhaler, called my dad and came back out to take care of me. My neighbor also came out (probably because of the way I honked the horn). My son had me sitting on the porch step asking me if I was okay. I took my inhaler, which was my low one, so my son ran in to find another one. The good thing is that I just got a refill a few days earlier. My neighbor was offering his kids medicine to me (he also has asthma). I shook my head no. Can't really talk when you're in the middle of an attack because you can't even breathe! My dad got there shortly after my son called him. I was starting to feel embarrassed because everyone was just standing there watching me. In all honest, I probably should have gone to the hospital. (I try to be on top of it because I have a friend that died from his asthma. He left behind a wife and a very young son. So sad!)

So, I hate my asthma!! If there was anything I could change about myself it would be NOT to have it!!
