Adrienne Clarke

"Asthma breathing pipes get smaller making it really hard to breathe. Triggers can be caused by allergies or infection and Adrienne Clarke also helped by inventing an asthma management plan. Adrienne discovered that pollen gets carried in the air and can cause sneezing and wheezing."
