My son gets Asthma attacks and they are frightening Delon. I know what you go through. So to have a panic attack and an Asthma attack is doubly hard for you.
Be thinking about you on Friday. if you are a Christian, I would like to have you in my prayers that day.....if not, that is ok....will send good "vibes" instead...

Re: Panic attacks
Blue, when you get one, find a paper bag and breathe in and out of it. Deep breaths in and out. It will slow your heart rate down a lot quicker as you won't be gulping oxygen, rather breathing in carbon dioxideAlways keep a paper bag in your purse when you go out as well
