Scared for my sister

On my 13 day of non smoking, I have been nervous and scared for my sister.  She has been sick this whole week and was told by the Doctor that it may turn into pnemonia again.  The last time she had pnemonia, we almost lost her.  I don't want to lose my sister.  I have been stressed about this all morning.  So I made a phone call to find out her condition.  She is improving today.  I am so relieved.  When I was stressing about this, I kept thinking about smoking again.  But I knew that smoking is not going to change the situation except to make me feel worse.  I am so glad I did not succomb.  And so happy that she is better today.

It is WONDERFUL that you understand that smoking would not have done one single thing to improve either your stress level, nor your sister's health!

Congratulations on your strength and your wonderful 13 days!!!!

Congratulations on 13 days!!! I agree with Nancy, that it is wonderful you understand that smoking would help nothing!!  How could inhaling poison ever help?

Hope your sister is still improving. Be proud, and good to yourself for protecting your quit while dealing with this stress, you deserve it! 😃

Good job!

Consider that a victory.

Each time you say no is a victory.

This builds your confidence.

You know you can get through life without them.

Glad your sister is getting better.
