I will be honest with you a cigarette sounds pretty good right now.  It will relieve my stress....NOT.  I know it won't, but some stress relief would be good.

We had received a letter from the hospital where my husband had his open heart surgery back in December of 2014.

It stated that it is possible that he is infected with a slow growing mycobacterium NTM from a blood heater cooler used during surgery.   If you has symptoms, please see your primary care physician.

Well, his Dr. has been trying to figure out what is going on with him.  He has not been thriving for about 2 1/2 years.

To make a long story short.  We had the test done yesterday and it takes about 8 weeks to get results back.  It is slow growing and can take several years to show up as symptoms.

Waiting is the hardest part. 

NOPE....NOPE....NOPE....NOPE!

Hello, I am 56 years old. I have smoked since the age of 15. I have tried to quit many times, but this time seems to be different. I had a health scare at the end of August and decided that I am done smoking!
