Some children saw Nasreddin coming from the vineyard with
two baskets full of grapes loaded on his donkey. They gathered
around him and asked him to give them a taste. Nasreddin
picked up a bunch of grapes and gave each child a grape. "You
have so much, but you gave us so little," the children whined.
20
"There is no difference whether you have a basketful or a
small piece. They all taste the same," Nasreddin answered,
and continued on his way.

• The management of COPD in every patient should be
personalized and guided by the symptoms, exacerbations,
pulmonary function and co-morbidities.
• Unfortunately very few treatments can slow the rate of
decline in lung function or significantly reduce mortality,
therefore prevention of the disease is very important.
