Experts say that these are the most important preventive steps to take.

Our little boy learned the meaning of the word 'hot' on his first birthday experimenting with his candle. He was totally supervised but allowed to touch the flame. He will NOT touch any kind of candle, and quickly draws his hand back when he is reaching for something and we say 'hot!' Sometimes I'll tell him "don't touch that" and he says "HOT!" LOL He is 14 months.

Since, I have been prone to so many bronchail and asthmatic bronchitis for last three years. Which the last episode lasted for six months. We have been taking care of our Great Grandchild since she was born. Now she is 4 years. This really makes me more alarmed!
