Mum who lost her son to asthma: "Please start taking your medication"

The mother of a 20-year-old who died from an asthma attack has pleaded with sufferers to take their prescribed medication.

Donna Green said her son, Tiernan, was meant to take his brown inhaler "morning and night... but never did."

Speaking to 5 live's Rachel Burden, she said "One minute your son is standing in front of you, fighting for life, and the next he is gone.

"But that's why I try my best to get it out there for people - even adults. Please, please take your medication."
