When asked why she chooses to support the American Lung Association, the answer is, "I have seen a significant increase in the number of my students with asthma, and in its severity. Asthma affects their ability to perform well both physically and academically. It also affects them emotionally. The students have enjoyed raising money to help the American Lung Association find answers to this health concern. " Coach Lewis' observation is correct. Asthma is the most prevalent and costly chronic disease in children. It accounts for more hospitalizations, doctor visits and days missed from school than any other chronic illness. When asthma is poorly managed, it can be life-threatening. But this need not happen. Research has shown that proper medical treatment and education about how to control asthma can help children with asthma lead normal, active lives. A major initiative of the American Ameri-can Lung Association is to empower em-power asthmatic children by teaching them how to prevent asthma episodes and emergencies. In the days before the event, students learned how difficult it can be to live with asthma and other chronic lung illnesses. They listened while classmates described des-cribed the painful and emotional trauma felt during an asthma 0 LEG n I'll I'-ll L attack. They came to realize that several students in each class at the Middle School are challenged by this illness. Nearly 47,000 children in Utah have asthma. Students also discussed the dangers of cigarette smoke, as well as the addictive nature of the drug. Students raising top dollars in support of the American Lung Association were Jacob Krebs, Alex Porter and Kysha Larsen. They were rewarded with a boom box and other gifts of their choice. Coach Lewis and the American Ameri-can Lung Association wish to express appreciation to the faculty facul-ty members and students of Springville Spri-ngville Middle School for their support of this cause and also to the Community of Springville for its generosity. The American Lung Association is funded solely by contributions from the public and has achieved many successes through the work of thousands of volunteers.
