If you said asthma, it may be because you or someone you know are among the thousands of people with asthma who have made a trip to the emergency room in the past year, because of their disease. Asthma is one of the .most com- mon chronic diseases, affecting more than two million people in Canada. It is also the leading reason that children miss school and the third most common reason for miss- ing work.

By talking to their physician or local Lung Association about the impact asthma may be having on them, most patients can greatly improve their quality of life." Experts agree that most asthma patients can live life symptom-free. But many don't realize that they could be managing their disease Funeral service will be held at the funeral home on Thursday.
