First Asthma Camp
My son was 7 years old and an active asthmatic. I dropped him off for his first 7-day asthma camp. I gave him positive encouragement on how much fun he would have and told him that other kids had the same thing he had (he always felt he was the only one with asthma). My son has NEVER been away from me overnight. As I got to the gate to leave my baby, I cried for 7 days straight.
I was happy to find my baby enjoyed the camp-- he participated in numerous activities. He came away with a better understanding of asthma and a newfound independence.
