Hello, everyone!

I just talked to Sharon, she is in a lot of pain, when they did the amputation they took her thumb, pointer, 3/4 of the middle finger, and 1/2 of her ring finger, they left the pinky finger. Sharon, had more surgery yesterday where they did some grafting and work on vessels, etc. She will be in the hospital probably 7 or 8 more days. There will be more surgery done later, how much later depends on the pain factor, healing time and when they schedule it for. You know Sharon, she wants all of this worked around EX-5 so she's not in pain and all that so she can have a good time! Ya can't blame her there! lol! 

Sharon is in good spirits and we talked about the new EX site, she just can't get on yet because it hurts so much! She is looking it over, though!

She says hi to everyone and Thank-You to those that continue to call, send cards, etc. and told me to send you this!

 and she sends hugs!

Take Care and thanks for reading!   ~Terrie~

Hello, I am a 59 year old female, name Terrie, still growing up. I have moderate COPD. I am an oxygen patient, currently not in need of the 24/7 or night time oxygen. Thanks to all the great support and education I got here on EX. My original quit date was 07/06/15 on day 519 I relapsed and started over in less than 24 hours. I want to go to the great beyond being a former smoker and I shall! COPD is not choosy! and not pretty! May 1rst, 2017 I am using Dale's suggestion to put off a cigarette each time and I am down from 50 to 20. I am looking forward to my old(7-6-2015)/new quit date 7-6-2017 May 4th, 2017 I started with Marlboro reds. Nicotine is a very assinine addiction. Once addicted I found I would smoke any of it including the little cigar/cigarettes, and it's still true since I threw away my quit and stopped being true to myself. I will smoke ANYTHING with nicotine in it to get the fix. I hate smoking! I am not having a problem stopping it's staying stopped, that I am not doing! I do not buy anything but regular tobacco but if caught without it I will do anything except vape to get the fix. UPDATE POSTED 04/24/2018: Getting ready to set a quit date and begin again :)
