My kid had asthma when he was small. The struggle to breath and the ambulances and EMT’s when we first experienced this. Scary shit. Central air conditioning, wall to wall carpets and modern chemicals? Who knows why every kid has asthma these days.

I do believe this experience shaped him even though he was very small at the time. He was much less the risk taker compared to his peers. He wasn’t breaking bones jumping skateboards or bmx. Kinda didn’t have to worry about him. He knew a little about mortality.

How would Druff fare with all this?
that stuck with me too. I had to take deep breaths as I was reading it.
