Marcus, sure there is a physical component, which needs to addressed, but what I would like to know is: what do medical doctors say about other underlying causes of asthma--that is, the psychological and pneumatological ones (mental and spiritual)--not just the somatic or physical ones?

BTW, it is my opinion that many other life-threatening conditions, including cancer and cardiovascular ones also have other than a somatic component.

Hey Revlgking,

According to National Jewish Medical and Research Center,the psychological environment of the child may play a role in the development of asthma.Children in the study whose parents coped poorly with the demands of parenting were more than twice as likely to develop asthma by the time they were 6 to 8 years old than were children whose parents did "okay."

Nitric O, your posts prompt the question: How much pain and suffering do we human beings need to suffer before we awaken to the fact as to who we really are? We are far more than mechanical puppets dancing on the strings of heredity and environment beyond our personal control.
