60 DAYS!!!!!!!!!!

Yesterday and today have been pretty rough, but I've talked down every sickorette that has called my name. I made it to 60 days today. I hasn't been easy sometimes, but all the encouragement from you guys has been the difference.

I left the oasis this morning to continue on through the desert of NML. Taking it really slow and easy, but traveling on. The waterbags are full and I packed lots of ripe fruits before I left. I'm coming to join all of you that followed the GNU before me.

One step and then another gets you through your journey. Love and hugs to all.

Larry

About the Author
I am a male that underwent coronary artery bypass X3 (triple) on 10/22/13 at the age of 55. I was living on about 20-30% of one coronary artery and my left heart output was only 20% to 25%. I spent a week in the hospital after surgery and went home. Then had to go back a day later for another week because I had pneumonia. Finally a few days because of a slight arythmia. All told it has been about 2 1/2 weeks. I am past the cravings by now and only have the urges to contend with. I really don't suggest that anyone quits smoking using this technique though. I'll have to carry the scars from that day for the rest of my life. The large one down the center of my chest, and the ones from several "silent" infarctions. I came that close to the next world. Never again will I subject my body to that (at one point in my life I was smoking 5 packs of cigarillos a day). I now have to say N.O.P.E. (Not One Puff Ever) every day of my life.
