Asthma has a significant impact on society, affecting over 6 million children under the age of 18 in the United States alone. Reasonable ways to control this disease are medications such as inhalers and spirometry to test the strength of your lungs. There is a myriad factor from environmental constraints, physical and the one built by humans is noted as a major factor affecting the development of asthma. Indoor air pollution is the most common form of air pollution, along with first-hand and second-hand smoking. Air pollution is often greater in lower socioeconomic neighborhoods with mold and cockroach infestations and access to medical care.
Mr. Higgins, First I want to thank you and the rest of the staff for organizing the intervention this morning. I was reflecting back on my time at Brophy after the meeting and recognize that I have received many opportunities that most student can not receive in public high school. If I had a chance to redo my four years of high school I would definitely still pick Brophy. Even though my high school career at Brophy could have been better, none of the moments I have had (good or bad) has been a waste. Brophy has dramatically changed my life farther than any school could have and changed the way I think and carry myself between freshman year and now.

Looking from a child to an adult I now understand why the adults in the neighborhood watched over everyone. It taught me a that there is strength in numbers and love conquers all. Growing up the fourth girl of five kids wasn’t tough or awkward for me. I am the baby girl, therefore I got away with a lot. I learned early on I was different, but could not comprehend whether it was in a good/bad way as a child.
If my roommate decided that she wants to start running to improve her cardiorespiratory fitness then I would first show her the many options of going about creating her own fitness program. Firstly she would set her “SMART goals are specific, measurable, action-oriented, realistic, and time-oriented” (Donatelle, 338). This way she can stay motivated, exercise moderately first and then increase her work load slowly. She can accomplish this by using the FITT principle, which consists of “frequency, intensity, time and type”(338). Since she wants to run to improve her cardiorespiratory fitness, she should start by running about 3-5 days out of the week, as well as keep the timing of her sessions around 20-60 minutes a day, keeping up with the set amount of days and frequency will allow for a smooth transition in
It taught me that strength and perseverance can make a significant impact in life. I also learned that forgiveness and the ability to forgive is much more powerful than I ever realized. This novel sucked me into the story and its characters and took me on an emotional ride of highs and lows. Finally, it forced me to reevaluate my previous judgement of the homeless.
It also showed that life is not a happily ever after. I learned
The movie “The Blind Side” is about a boy that were on the bottom with nothing and lived in the worst part of the city, but the family Tuohy wanted to change this. Firstly, Michael Oher had no family when the family Tuohy found him except for a mother that was doing drugs and a brother he had never spoke as he can remember, they realised that he had no place to stay so they took him home to their own house. Leigh Ann tried to find out who his mother was, but that was impossible. So instead she wanted to integrate Michael in their family by doing shopping and take him with them on other activities.
From that short adventure I learned that my life--no matter how bad a day I may have--is better than the lives of most and I need to be thankful everyday for all my opportunities, that the littlest acts of kindness can go a long way, and that all the problems of the world are everyone’s problems and affect everyone because we are all world
Asthma is learning to sit still for breathing treatments. Who knew fifteen minutes could seem like an eternity. Asthma is remembering to take two puffs of a steroid inhaler before any exercise. Asthma is when you are running and it feels like you are
He also taught me to stay motivated no matter how many times I wanted to give up because of my mistakes. I remember the day like it was yesterday even though it was eighteen years ago. This is one of the proudest moments in my life. It’s a lesson that I’ll never forget. Being taught how to ride a bike for the first time was exciting.
