Day 85 and still trekking in the desert. I think I see a small waterhole ahead. Will refill the waterbags and continue on.

I made some date bread the other evening, and now I can't find the last loaf. I think I might have dropped it into the deer's grass last night.

That mountain is getting bigger on the horizon. I'm ready to meet that goat. The GNU is leading us true and straight for the mountain.

On a personal note, I think I need to get hold of my cardiologist. My weight has shot up and I have a terrible cough now. It's getting harder to breath also.

I want to congratulate everyone on their quits. Keep up the great work.

One step, and then another gets you to where you are going.

Hugs and love.

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.
