Short Note: My name is Suzanne Balch and my son is twenty-months old and suffers with severe
allergies and asthma. My son is one of the youngest patients in our city to be diagnosed with
asthma. Diagnosis of asthma is normally given after three years of age. My son’s asthma is
controlled by two must-have daily medications and three to five more as needed medications that
are given up to four times per day. His asthma symptoms worsen with allergy and trigger
related events.
We have found that by using Organic, All Natural and Eco Friendly food and products for my son,
rather than man-made substitutions, that he has ten times less breathing problems.
This event was conceived while in the hospital, waiting on yet another test to be taken. I
realized that people are unaware of how life-threatening allergies and asthma can be! I thanked
God, as I sat there, that we were blessed to be able to pay for the medicines and tests that he
needs. I thought about, “What about those who can't afford all the tests and medicines it
takes to care for a child with these problems?”. This is when, "Learn Green / Live Green" was
born.
No matter what it takes - I want to promote community awareness of Asthma and Allergies to
educate not only those who suffer with these symptoms, but their families about how "Living
Green" will increase quality of life.
