I remember the kid in camp who suffered from asthma: Bobby Bolick. Boy, can you believe I remember that? So when my son Ben was diagnosed with asthma when he was 3, I said I’m gonna do whatever it takes to help keep it under control. Inhalers, the medications, whatever it takes for Ben. But actually, Pulmicort Respules® (budesonide inhalation suspension) is what has really helped to keep Ben’s asthma under control.

Now he’s almost 6, going into first grade. And he’s doing great. It’s because of all the people around us, the health care team; the doctors, the nurses, the specialists. Talking, working with them—it all helped get Ben on a great plan to prevent his asthma symptoms, and it’s working.
