A child's relatable reflections on what it's like to live with asthma

In My Life as an Asthmanaut, a young boy explains what it's like to live with asthma. When an asthma attack occurs, Jacob feels like an astronaut floating off to outer space-- with an empty air tank. Sometimes outer space is lonely--Jacob can't always join his family and friends when they exercise or play outside during allergy season. But he has tools to manage his asthma. He stays calm as he reaches for his inhaler to refill his air tank. He counts to 10 and comes back down to earth, where he can breathe easily, surrounded by people who love him. And when Jacob sees someone else who's low on air, he helps them find solid ground too.
