Luna, Very proud of you and thank you for this. My efforts at sending meaningful posts seem rather clumsy in comparison. (not bad for a horse though) ;p Mr Ed :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 2/13/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 111 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 3,350 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] �832.5 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 18 [B]Hrs:[/B] 14 [B]Mins:[/B] 50 [B]Seconds:[/B] 17

Luna - YOU ROCK. Thanks for this post. I often have had similar feelings while in a place ot "time" that I used to smoke. Now I can smile and think what a better place and time I am in today as a non-smoker. I like things much better the way they are now. I loved just about everything I did for the last 40 years -- except smoke. I have all of the SSC veterans to thank for keeping in mind that I have an addiction, I need to take it a day at a time and crush any thoughts of going off the path. NOPE. Wear your title with pride, you deserve it! *Wishing You The Best* CobenFan [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 3/25/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 71 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 1,220 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $248.5 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 6 [B]Hrs:[/B] 15 [B]Mins:[/B] 21 [B]Seconds:[/B] 32

Luna, What strength, courage, faith, and strong will you have. This addiction is something evil, just like any other addiction. We are just one puff away. We have to be on guard at all times. Thank you for posting it touched my heart. I know what you are speaking of when you talk about your Mom with Alzheimer's, my Father, now passed had this horrid disease. Then you talk of your special friend Ann dying of lung cancer, I again know of what you speak. I lost my husband of this horrid disease. He lived 23 days after he was diagnosed, and watching him die right before you. He died March 31, 2005. At that time I had been quit for 4 months, with all the people here, just coming and going I just lost track of everything. One night every one was gone and I was by myself, just sitting at the dining room table. I look across the table and someone had left a pack of cigarettes, I thought nothing of it I went over and got them and just started smoking. I didn't feel guilty, I didn't feel anything. You see just six months before that I had lost a son, and a grandson. At the same time I had a sister dying of ovarian cancer. She died 10 days after my husband. I was just numb, nothing mattered to me anymore. I went into a deep depression, and closed it all inside. I thought if I kept it inside I wouldn't have to deal with all the grief and pain. Yes, I just kept on smoking. My daughter finally got me into counseling and that did help, and the medications helped. Then about six months ago I thought I had something wrong with my heart, but it turned out to be panic attacks, so I am back seeing a counselor and also group therapy. I'm finally facing reality, what ever that is. My Dr thought the group therapy would be good for me to see how other people are coping with their grief and pain. Well, Thur night was my first night. It was very emotional, my son went with me because he also needed to go because the grandson I lost was his son. Well about half way through he got up and left, he hasn't dealt with his grief either. Well by the time it was over I was so emotional, crying, angry, and I wanted a cigarette go bad. When I went to the car I told my son to stop at the store and buy me a pack. He is a non smoker, and he refused to stop. Luna,

Luna Thanks for this post. Thanks for sharing so much of yourself and your life. Because you share so much and so deeply you create a space that I can follow in, a space and set of guidlines that I can work towards. Thanks for creating that and sharing that. I share a situation similar to yours with my Mom and there are times when it totally gets me down and there are times when she will simply let me hold her and we get to share love and connection in a way very different than what we have know. And I totally get how much one needs to let go of. Just like with smoking.

For every day of quitting, all year long, thanks for making it through. There will be a cigarette I don't smoke because you didn't smoke. quitter [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 3/3/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 93 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 1,870 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $199.95 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 6 [B]Hrs:[/B] 4 [B]Mins:[/B] 22 [B]Seconds:[/B] 44

Luna, I absolutely loved your post. You couldn't have expressed how many of us quitters are feeling about our what we go through in our quits. It was truely universal. I don't know what you were doing in Guatemala but I bet it was philanthropic in nature!
