Cigarettes Not Smoked
Hi Kristi,
My heart goes out to you. My dad isn't doing very well and I'm having to deal with the idea that he won't be here much longer. And it has to do with cigarettes. So, although I can't say that I know you or your family, I can say that that pain is very much present in our lives too.
And I admire you very much as I admire everyone here that is making the committement. That we deserve better. That we bought into some kind of line at some point in our lives that told us that smoking would make our lives more complete-- better. Even maybe more fun.
I'm just past my 3rd week and I'm starting to cough up yucky stuff. My lungs are starting to work again and are cleaning house. Temptations are around us, and getting through the first and second week are hard. But you can do this. Bob is right. This is a family and we are here for you. Take the very good advice already given, and keep checking in. I promised that I would write something everyday here no matter how tired I was. Keeping connected helps us stay accountable. And if you happen to have a slip, then come back again. There is no judgement, only support.
