I've thought about Peter Jennings all day

Peter had quit for the 20 years or more and I find it difficult that he died from lung cancer caused by smoking. I learned that after a 15 year quit, the chances of an individual getting lung cancer would be the same one that never smoked.

Marie - this is who I thought about when I quit. It was January 23rd when I decided, and April 1 when I sorta quit and April 15 when I made the pledge "Not One Puff Ever". From January 23 to March 23 I was on a trip in Central America and did not want to "spoil" our vacation going through withdrawal. I smoked like a chimney for those two months in preparation for my quit, while each day going to the internet cafe to read an email about one of my closest friends. They had just discovered a spot on her lung. Ann was her name. Ann lived 3000 miles from me. Ann and I met on line playing bridge. Ann and I became very close. We played bridge several times a week. We emailed and talked on messenger every day. We confided alot in each other. Ann and I bought plane tickets and each traveled to Las Vegas for several days so that we could meet each other in person. We rode roller coasters there - each of us having a passion for them. We ate sushi. We went to Cirque du Soleil. We laughed through a great Female Impersonator Show. We discovered we really were like sisters. It was one of the most fun trips ever. She visited me on the little island in the Northwest where I live. We went whale watching. We danced to Dirty Dancing in my upstairs. We explored the islands, beach combed, cooked. I visited her in Florida. We explored the coast and mangrove canals. We laughed through "Menopause, The Musical". We searched for manatees. We ate great Southern seafood at beachside cafes. We flew to Philadelphia. We visited a friend there. We went to museums and re-lived American history. We ate Philly cheese steaks and rode double-decker busses. We met in New York City and saw Broadway shows. We went to Queens and ate Egyptian food. We cried together at Ground Zero. Ann was a ray of sunshine. She had more close friends that anyone I ever knew. Ann had a wonderful husky Southern drawl. The huskiness was because she was a smoker. We loved sitting with coffee or margaritas and smoking together. Ann was in her 60's, older than me. I love smokers who are older than me - "See, nothing happened to them!", I say to myself. Ann was athletic. She played tennis three times a week. She danced beautifully. She had a wonder

Maybe that can be a reward - going to see Menopause the Musical. It is hilarious!! You are so welcome for babbling back at you. I owe my whole quit to the folks on this board willing to hold my hand through this process! How wonderful it is to pay it forward.

Hello Marie, You hit the nail right on the head my Friend, I always like Peter Jennings also, I must have mentioned Motivation over a hundred times going through my quit on this website, Its a very Powerful Word, You might say that it can move Mountains if You Believe in Yourself, I would have never quit smoking if it had not been for this Computer sitting on this table here before me, No Way, Yes, I was laughing at myself when I first started my quit on here, saying, This has got to be a joke or something, 40 years of smoking, pack and a half aday, Funny, Funny, But it didn't take long for this Farm Boy from Illinois to admit I was wrong about my thinking, And there is that word Motivation, jumping right out at me, You see Marie, After 1 or 2 weeks of quitting, my eyes were opened, All the People that I was Quitting with, People from around this World, were patting me on the back, cheering for me, Come on John, You can do it, And that was my Motivation to say, Giddy-Up-Go-John, Giddy-up-Go, And I never looked back, I only did to look at my beautiful Friends who suported me, And I will always be so greatful for them, Motivation, Don't leave home without it, Smokless In Oklahoma :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 3/10/2003 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 1397 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 41,919 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $5979.16 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 317 [B]Hrs:[/B] 17 [B]Mins:[/B] 49 [B]Seconds:[/B] 1

Freedom, There will always be someone that will validate your quit and keep you pushing forward. It is important to realize that we need to continue with our coping mechanisms and avoidance techniques. The urge will come and go so be prepared for it. These stories are shared so that we may learn from one another's experiences. Thank you for sharing :) Josie _____________________ The SSC Support Team.
