Take a better breath

While the spring winds might be making breathing harder for allergy sufferers, for those with emphysema, asthma and chronic bronchitis, troubled breathing is a year-round issue. If you suffer from any of these conditions, the American Lung Association and Enloe Medical Center offer the Better Breathers support group to help educate people on the effects of chronic lung diseases, plus offer support and information for exercises, breathing techniques and other ways to help improve quality of life. The next meeting is Wednesday, April 24, at 11:45 a.m., at the Enloe Outpatient Center. Call 332-6898 for more info.
