Journal 1984: Overcoming Asthma and Changing Careers

Journal 1984: Overcoming Asthma and Changing Careers is the 13th yearly journal written by San Francisco author Joseph Sutton. While teaching high school English in 1984, Sutton contracted asthma. This yearly journal of 6300 words shows how he overcame that dreaded disease and why he had to quit teaching. To keep supporting his family, he became a salesman. But he never forgot his true calling of returning to writing again.
