Free Asthma Education!

With asthma and allergies increasing, so does the need for more education and support. Finding budget-friendly avenues are always helpful but free support is definitely always welcome as well. I feel that most of us can agree that the journey of asthma and allergies can seem overwhelming sometimes and can leave some of us feeling a little on the helpless side as well. I am proud to say that this is the exact reason I began doing what I do- nobody should feel alone. Our community is amazing at supporting each other and with technology on our side, we can connect with someone just about any time of day, anywhere in the world.

Since part of my mission is to share to help others, I wanted to make sure I posted about two free events for July and August. If they do not necessarily pertain to you or your family, feel free to pass the information along to others. If this post helps even one person, I have done my job!

Tuesday, July 23rd 3-4 PM EST 

Allergy Asthma breathe webinar free

FREE webinar hosted by Allergy & Asthma Network "Type 2 Inflammation: Severe Asthma and Co-Morbidities". Dr. Bradley Chipps will discuss and answer your questions on the basics of Type 2 Inflammation and what it means for patients with severe asthma as well as co-occurring conditions. This webinar can be attended virtually or via telephone. If you would like to ask the Doctor questions or comment, signing in virtually is the way to go. To attend, you must be registered so don't forget to sign up here and don't forget to share (because sharing is nice, helpful and we need to do more of it).
