I think people should be made aware that asthma can be life threatning especially employers from christmas this year i had 5 months off because i had attacks that were life threatning but i didnt recover very well & was struggling 2 breathe for the 5 months . Before i went back to work i had a meeting with my boss & she said at least it wasnt something serious.
