I am so sorry about the death of your mom Redhead101 so sad it was from emphysema and copd...You are giving yourself and your mom the best gift of quitting smoking. You are taking your mom’s memory and making her death not be in vain...how wonderful...hang in there ...once you get past the uncomfortable moments which takes a while...it does feel good to be quit....Happy Thursday....~ Colleen 304 DOF
Thanks for sharing the lovely photo of you both. I'm glad this is motivating you to keep moving forward. You're so right about that--it is within you. Sometimes it just takes us a while to get there. So happy you have.

Thanks for sharing why you quit and how you are succeeding. Our Mom's, seems to me, give us love to go forward with.
I am so sorry for the loss of your mother but I am sure that she would be very proud of you right now for quitting smoking. It is such a powerful addiction and many of us are carrying with us the damage we did to ourselves. I know I am. You sound amazing, stay close and keep your quit safe.

I'm very sorry about the loss of your Mum BUT I'm so glad that you are here at Ex.....
I am so sorry for the loss of your mother. I can’t even imagine, My dad passed away from lung cancer over 20 years ago and it still didn’t motivate me to quit. You should be so proud of yourself. Quitting is the scariest, most empowering thing I’ve ever done in my life. Don’t give in. Stay out of your head and just hang on for the ride.
Be Amazing....
