So I just joined this website 2 or 3 days ago and I want to quit smoking. My daughter asked me if I would quit smoking for her birthday. She will be 5 on feb 14 and I promised her i would quit. I don't care how hard it's going to be. I will chew straws if need be. I want to be here for my kids

 

Recently found out last week my ex hubbys mom in law has lung cancer and they caught it too late. It has spread to her brain causing over 12 lesions and she's already losing her memory. They told her last week that with radiation hey can buy her 6 months otherwise she has no more than 3 weeks. So her prognosis is obviously not good. My heart just aches thinking about her and how devastated my daughter is going to be, I am ready to be here for her. I want and need to quit. I want to set a good example for my children. I am getting remarried in Sept this year to my wonderful fiance and he is my biggest cheerleader. I quit smoking when I was pregnant with my son last year and i never should have started back up. But now I have more motivation than before to quit. So now is the time.

 

Pray for me and pray for her as well. It's going to be a long road and tough but I know I can do this. If anyone has ideas please tell me.

 

I'm open. I can't take chantix due to psych issues.
