About the Author

In the early eighties, Winfred attended the College of Health Related Professions where he studied Respiratory Therapy. He finished his class with honors and settled at a children's hospital in Arkansas where he manned the Emergency Department for over thirty-five years. He has seen and assisted in countless asthma cases where a more robust asthma education might have been the difference between life and death.

In many respects, this book represents a distillation of Winfred’s decades of experience now being made available to the asthma community.
