Every episode, even asthma, has the potential to be fatal. That is made abundantly clear by the untimely and terrible passing of 12-year-old Ryan Gibbons. Ryan was a lively young man who enjoyed riding motorcycles and going on hikes in the woods, but he would soon die from a deadly error. He had an asthma attack at school back in 2012. At the start of the incident, he could have easily utilised his inhaler, but the life-saving tool had been stolen.
