One in 3 people in Wales don't know what to do when people with Asthma are having a serevere Asthma attack. Asthma UK Cymru belive that people with asthma or people who are caring for someone with Asthma should carry a Asthma card.''More than 400,000 people with Asthma in the UK have attacks that are so servere they are unable to ask for help and even people with mild asthma are at risk of having a fatal attack if their asthma isn't under conrol.
we interviewed a person suffering with Asthma and this is what they told us about how it is to be Asthma sufferer : A lot of the time "a lot of the time i feel scared about the Attack. the reason for me feeling scared is that about 17 months ago I had an Attack which put me in an intensive therapy unit. me and mum refer to it as 'the big one'. i have never had an Attack quite like it before. "I'm lucky because I don't remember much about it. every time I have an Attack I am scared now. maybe it will end up like 'the big one' and next time I won't survive.
