Quite often. My husband and I look for parks in NC and VA to walk. This one was along the Tar River in Rocky Mount NC. Love the hike as well as taking pictures in these settings.

Dogs are everywhere now. In restaurants, they are on the patio. They are in grocery stores, in carts, no less. Where is the Allergic Asthma Lobby? There was a Group that got peanuts removed from some airlines. What about those of us that could go into a massive asthma attack due to dander. Oh, and I love telling people there are no such thing as hypoallergenic animals. They don't like hearing that at all.
Welcome @Karen B PT ! I totally understand about weather concerns. My allergies are flared right now with certain trees and it's really a struggle! I'm trying to not let fear of an attack keep me from riding. It's hard some days! Then it's going to get hot here in July and August which is also an issue for me.

Thank you AAFA and all who contribute. Asthma and allergies are confusing and scary diseases, and facing it alone or with those who are not educated, experienced, or familiar is even scarier. I have had so much love and support since joining the community forum and receiving information and resources through your organization. Thank you!
This was an awesome post. It is funny, I personally love reading about spring and summer cleanup's because of the before and afters. It is often looks like a bigger mess than it really is. Once it is all cleaned out though, it looks spotless and the effort is well worth it. Here is another similar article I read recently that outlines the importance of Spring Clean-Up just like this one. Give it a read and let me know your thought Spring and Summer Cleanup Summarized
Thank you Lynda Mitchell! I developed food allergies at age 13 after a major intestinal surgery for ulcerative colitis. My son has had food allergies from at least age 3. I had difficulty handling my own food allergies when I was a teenager and then in college and had many ER visits as my reactions progressively got worse. So when my son had allergies, I found a lot of great information and printables online and love to show my son the pictures from events to show him that we are not alone...
I am really upset about these standards for pollution. I just read an article today called " EPA admits new emissions plan could lead to 1,400 premature deaths a year AUG 21, 2018 6:12 PM EDT U.S. BY JASON SILVERSTEIN / CBS NEWS : "A 289-page EPA report released Tuesday provides details on the impact of the Trump administration's Affordable Clean Energy rule, which would reverse Obama-era cuts to power plant carbon pollution. The EPA acknowledges that the proposed plan is expected to...
Thanks, AAFA! Love the blog post! Another thing I learned was to keep in mind supply chain shortages ... even if we're not in the direct path of the storm, we may be hit with gas or food or medication shortages, and our cellular phone service may take a hit.
Thanks, her asthma and allergies limit her a lot as far as what she can eat and the activities she does. She has however made huge strides into making sure she is able to now take a dance class a week when she pretreats.

Yay! He looks like he's ready to have fun! Are you guys involved in raising awareness for asthma? AAFA has some great shareable images ... You can help Spread Awareness About Asthma and Allergies in One Click !

Love that excitement and joy he's got! How long has he been playing? What position does he play? What sorts of things have you worked out with his coaches to help him play? We've got a discussion going on about what people say when you tell them that you or your kiddo has asthma ... what sort of reactions have you gotten?
