While I was reading Flowers for Algernon, I was interested to find more out about disabilities, so over the past week I have been researching about asthma. Asthma is a condition causing narrowing of the airways or tubes of the lungs. It is not contagious but you can get it out of nowhere. I have also been having fun with this research, I have got to play a game and I took a quiz I got a ninety percent. In this essay I will tell you what will help stop it, how will I get it and the types of asthma. Asthma is a condition causing narrowing of the airways or tubes of the lungs. The airways become narrow from tightening of the airway muscles and swelling of airway extra mucus. Airway narrowing makes it hard for people to breathe (“Asthma—Child” …show more content…
I also did not know how you get asthma until I played a game that showed me how to help stop the coughing and what starts it, I did not know that the air tubes would swell up I thought they just started to itch on the inside. Inhalers seem hard to use to, they have to push down on this button and then hold your breath for 15 seconds. This would be hard because I seem to have trouble holding my breath for 10 seconds. I was told by one kid that asthma is bad because of how careful you have to be. Now I want to know why I do not have asthma because I 'm always around animals and pollen all the time. When we are working in barns I am around bugs and dust in there too, so now I have a good question to ask my doctor when I see him next. When I read that you can play sports with asthma I thought what if the asthma you have is really bad and you can coughs a lot over it, can you still play? So as I said earlier Flowers for Algernon started this research and I am glad it did because I really liked it. So if I or someone I know get asthma I will be really happy about doing this research because I know how to handle it. Learning how to use an inhalers might be hard to do at first for me but, I will fight threw it as they say: “what doesn 't kill you makes you stronger”. I hope that they find a cure for asthma because it will help a lot of people, If they do find a cure I know what I am going to read about next. So come on scientist you can do it let 's cure asthma for

A common image presented in “This Is for You” is that of breathing or breath. Breath first appears in the second paragraph of the story, “Thank God for asthma” (59).

One time I went to an event where autistic children could play baseball, and it was called Miracle League. The look on their faces was priceless; they were just having a great time. This experience highlights that is it possible for children with autism to get exercise and have a great time! The experience made me think about what I can do to help autistic children have an enjoyable and healthy life. To have a healthy and fun life for children with autism, we need to know the effects of exercise, find good sports, and teach the game correctly, so that they understand how exercise can be enjoyable too.

Growth and Intelligence Growth is essential for building relationships and bettering yourself in life, without growth you will never improve. With growth, you also gain intelligence, with intelligence you can create better opportunities for yourself whether that be a better job or better friends. Although high intelligence is not needed for certain things in life, it can help get you in a better position for success and without it, you are put at a disadvantage. High intelligence isn’t always a good thing and in Flowers for Algernon, Keyes demonstrates how growth in intelligence will bring opportunities but also could create anger and disappointment.
Two Ends of the Spectrum: Behavioural Isolation It’s a scenario that is common, if not heartbreaking. Someone who is different is ridiculed, taught to try and hide what him or her unique, and grows up hating who they really are. In America, young girls are taught that “beautiful” means light-skinned, blue-eyed, and blond-haired; in China, beautiful exemplifies pale skin, long, glossy black hair, and big eyes- because that is what surrounds us. That is the norm.
Good job with the soap noted. Having an asthma action plan is very important in the management of asthma. Asthma accounts for more hospitalization and more absences from school than any other chronic illnesses (Sharma, 2015).

With an action asthma plan, health outcome is improved, decrease missed days from school and increase quality of life ((Tidy,

Because of all the doctors’ visits and emergency rooms I attended, I realized how hard it is to live with allergies that cause your throat to swell shut and can cause a person to die within thirty minutes if not treated. The idea of people suffering, like I do every time they want to be a little risky at a restaurant when ordering dinner, has pushed and influenced me to find how allergies are caused. Allergies are mutations in our genetic coding that cause our bodies to no longer produce proteins to break down certain foods causing the body to see the food as a danger. The body then produces hives and inflammation which cause the throat to swell shut and a lack of ability to breathe.
