Abby's goal for the year is to win the big race at the fair, but she worries that her asthma is going to spoil her dream. Abby practises every day and takes her medicine. Although some people discourage Abby, a trainer at her father's gym is very encouraging.

With proper medication and the help of a physician, children with asthma can control their condition and benefit from physical activity.--Ministry of Education website.
