My 1st smoke-free Christmas since I was 15 years old.

I wish I could go back and talk to that young girl that was me. I wish I could tell her not to put that 1st nasty cancer-stick to her lips. I wish I could make her see that there will be nothing in her life that she will come to regret more... I can't, so I'll just say I'm sorry,  and forgive myself for all the years of abuse I heaped upon those once young and healthy lungs- and go on from there. Here's to the rest of my Life!

Happy Holidays Everyone, 🙂

Dixie

N.O.P.E.

Thanks for the blog Dixie. That made me sad for my 15 year old self. 😞 Better late than never, right?

What a beautiful blog - thanks! It's my first since I was 19 - so I feel much the same. I like what you said about forgiving yourself.....I struggled with that for a while......I now am able to move on and consider the past in the rear view mirror as Tommy said. Merry Christmas!

I happened to see your response in an old Dr. Hays blog supporting NRT's

It's been 7 years. How is your quit doing?

Did you get off the NRT's?
