Thanks for the comments on this mornings blog, a big part of the problem with the shortage of Dr's here in my region of New Brunswick is many of them are at retirement age and most of the younger docs aren't interested in settling down in the rural areas, plus there's not much here and alot of people have left for Western Canada, mind you alot have come back because of the wild fires especially the one that was in Fort McMurray, thankfully that is under control but I love my life in my little neck of the woods especially since quitting smoking. I found out today that the questions I had to answer about having the MRI on my back aren't standard and I may not be able to even have an MRI because I have a face full of titanium metal from jaw surgery back in 2001, I have 8 screws 4 plates and a hook and an eye in my jaw, I had my jaw broke in 6 different places and screwed back together and was wired shut for 2 wks. The surgery was for several reasons but yay it worked it, but being a dunce I waited for the alotted time that I shouldn't smoke and went right back to smoking until I finally wised up nearly 23 months ago,if you haven't quit yet now is the time to take back your life while you can and if you are struggling hang tough and hang on tight because it's definitely going to take some time but it's going to get easier as time goes on so keep stacking up your precious days of freedom. N.O.P.E - NOT One Puff Ever will give you a beautiful smoke free life because S.I.N.A.O - Smoking Is Not An Option.
