thanks its a good read.

I see there's apparently not a lot of take up from institutions this year in the UK compared with several years ago. Asthma needs a funded campaign like the cancer charities have.

I've mentioned Asthma Week and howsabout doing something Lime to everyone I know and they've all said rather support cancer charity cos of this or that or known someone close who's died. Someone even took my suggestion as an insult to the good work done by cancer charities and hospices. Tempted to correct them that hospices are not just there for cancer sufferers but sometimes it's better to just keep quiet.

Unfortunately, they truly don't see asthma in the same way eg can all remember some wee soul at school who, along with the person whose kneecap always dislocated, couldn't take part in PT but apart from that, nothing else.

Not what you're looking for?
