I am so blessed my GA is hanging in there with me and for me.

He has and seems to continue to worked so hard, all my Life!

I had a stroke at 55 
Was at a ball game for my grandson,
Felt a little pain for about 1 long second in middle of forehead,
Didnt think much of it.  Climbed down quite a few bleachers when game was over.
Got in car with hubby,  I started to have just a tiny bit,
of slurring as I chatted.  Said to hubby some jokes,

about my slurring.  Then I knew from all all that I have read, and learned
about strokes that something was wrong in my body.

Told hubby I think I'm having a stroke.

He said naw,"  I said yes".  Went to ER,  said I think I had a stroke.

But no visible signs.  They ran me to back of ER,  took pics of my brain,

stroking still occurring; Signed my a lot of papers to stop that stroke.
Got helicopter ride.....Egads!
They saved my life! I saved my life as well! I knew "get help!"
I didn't have symptoms like books, and such say.  Just little cues. 

First hour is so important, when having a stroke.
I know that to be a true in my life.

Thank you God and my GA.  Amen.
One of many health issues after that scare.
Still smoking some .   Ugh.  Prayers Pls to be a Quit!

You have a great Angel.  And you also have a great line to use any time hubby isn't doing what you want.

"I was right about the stroke, wasn't I dear?"

Remember quitting is about grabbing as much joy in life as you can!

[anaussiemom]

Your so right lol!  I told him all the reasons I need and desire a puppy.   Quitting is one of the many reasons.   No compromise yet.  Working on it, he so wants me to completely stop.  I only rescue animals.    So even a senior dog  with a soft pace to lay they're head is fine, before they pass, is ok with me.  He doesnt understand my love for animals...but I married him he was a stray....LOL

[minihorses]

OK, time for a little tough love here girl.  If you had a stroke, why the H*LL are you still smoking some?  You know better than that!  Isn't "smoking a little" the same as being "a little bit pregnant"?  Until you do quit completely you won't be able to rescue a dog and give it a loving chance at life that it might not get otherwise.  I am an animal fanatic and rescuer as well so we both know that time is of the essence to make a difference in an animal's life.  I will pray to God for you and your health.  You have a great GA who wants you to be free of the addiction.  You lived through a stroke! Now that's a reason to stay quit any day of the week.  May the Lord hold you and guide you on the path to health and freedom from addiction.  We know you can!!!

You can do this....I smoked for 40 years - as many of us did. We came here, learned as much as we could about this addiction, got the support here - and we quit! Best thing EVER! Get a copy of The Easy Way to Quit Smoking by Alan Carr - please!
