Brian and me and my quit.

Finally I have some down time to be here, I try to be here as often as I can.  Last week Brian had a COPD exaserbation.  He was so sick!  I got antibiotics and prendizone for him.  Thought I was going to loose him last Wednesday night.  He is doing much better now.  I know for myself smoking is not the answer.  So onward and upward I go to smoke freedom.  His eye operation is this Tuesday, and it will be tense because it's his good eye, the other one does not focus.  We are nervous and excited about his surgery.  I pray it goes well.

I'm keeping quit, finally it's a day to relax and take it easy and recharge my batteries.  There is no question about it, smoking doesn't solve any of my problems.  I will learn to deal with this one day at a time, and like pearls on a string my days will add up.

I wish you all well, you are LIFE savers here on EX.  🙂  xoxo

I'm a widow now, my husband passed away January 1, 2018 He died of COPD, and pre leukemia and the flu. He quit smoking 15 years ago which gave him extra time. I am a mother, and grandmother. I have smoked for 47 years. I am going to have my forever quit and I'm doing it for me and my two daughters so I can live longer and be with them. I like to read, swim, garden, crochet, paint and doodle. I also enjoy walking and visiting with friends and family. I am 100% making this my last quit. I have been in denial about what smoking has done to me and my kids. I must make a new life for myself and it doesn't include cigarettes. I may already have COPD, but have not been officially diagnosed.
