Wow, that's incredible. So much to go through in only 12 days.

Congrats for not smoking through it all.

Also, I hope that things start changing in a positive direction with your family soon. Sounds like you have your work cut out for you. I'm glad you aren't smoking in the mix of it all.

See, everyone?  It IS possible to go through life's travails and NOT smoke. kback has taught you how.  Just DON'T.

I  hope, dear, that things improve daily for you.  You are in my thoughts, and I cannot tell you how proud I am that you have protected that wonderful quit!

And it all would have happened whether you were a smoker or not!  And smoking would not have changed any of it! 

Great job staying smoke-free through such a barrage of life-insults. I hope things smooth out for you.

WOW Kimmi,

 I am so impressed!  I thought that what I was having was a bad day, but compared to what you have been through, I should be ashamed to complain...  I sure hope that your days become easier  and there is no doubt in my mind that you are a very strong and inspirational person.  You keep up the great work with your non smoking days and you will be the lady that I will certainly follow because if you can do this, anyone can.  I am with you all the way Kimmi!

Kimmi, I am so very proud of you.  You have gone thru so much and haven't smoked, Lady you rock.  I hope things get better for you soon. I don't know what Dr's think we are supposed to do when we have pain, just tough it out I guess.  I have severe arthritis  in my spine from top to bottom. It has damaged the 3 bottom dics and the sciatic nerve and that means never pain free.  I hope you find another pain management DR. soon. Have a good day my friend.  HUGS

Congratulations, Kimmi. You are one tough lady.  I hope things straighten out for you very soon.  And like everyone has already said...smoking wouldn't have prevented ANY of those things from happening and it certainly wouldn't have FIXED any of those problems!!  Go, Girl!

I am so proud of you Kimmi. It is very easy to tell that you are a loving and devoted mother and wife! You have been through so much dealing with your children and standing by your husband in his time of need. You deserve a medal my dear friend and I commend you for your strength to endure all of plights and still be smoke-free. You are my Hero and a great inspiration. Wishing you and your family all the best in the future!! Love and Hugs, Louise 🙂
