Troubled bronchitis

A cough to start off a series of uncontrollable suffering.
These could be tales of fiction to some.
Weird to think that there was a time when everything was normal.
Unaware of how serious it could spread among us men.
Party and workout along as if nothing was starting.
What is this now?
This just got worse in the body of me.
Attacks of short air spasms so scary at times.
Nobody deserves such.
Today there's good and bad.
To take a man from his addictions is as bad as bad gets.
Better days are here now.
Recovering from it.
