thank you family for coming to my rescue. crisis is over now. my roomie is home now also. an hour of gospel music, (yes, the little red man listens to gospel) helped a lot. i appreciate all the thoughts and prayers.

I'm at another oasis now, I'm going to rest for a while before I continue on. the figs and dates are dripping with their sweet juices. the water is cold and sweet.

I have set out containers of water for my animal guides and companions. may they find this water as refreshing as I do. the spot on the horizon is larger now. it looks like the trail leads that way.

Hugs and Love to each and every one of you.

One step at a time gets you where you are going.

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.
