  2. Hi everyone, I'm a member, but, I'm not here often and most of you don't know me. But I'm here today for a quick thought (okay, maybe not quick, I tend to ramble) I was recently hospitalized with a rare condition called Guillain-Barre Syndrome. After a month in the hospital, I came home 1 week ago. It was scary and very painful, and my recovery will require months of therapy. I am doing so much better and I work hard every day to regain my strength. I'm sure many folks here have gone through serious medical conditions also. I do know that I thought about how happy I was to have quit smoking. I can't imagine for a minute how being a smoker would have effected me. Not just feening for a cigarette, but the severity of my illness, also the recovery being so much more difficult and lengthy. If you are in the beginning of your quit, please stay strong and committed. For your health. KTQ

  3. beazel - how are you doing? I was sad to read of your health issues. Great gift you gave yourself talking smoking off the table! Makes more room to focus on important stuff- like recovery & getting stronger. I hope you are well in to both. L4L

  4. Sorry to hear that you have this medical issue to deal with. Be diligent and work hard on your physical therapy. You’ll do fine. I do believe most of what you’ve advised here will apply to your recovery.

  7. So very sorry that you have been ill, @beazel. I am thankful you didn’t have the complications of smoking on top of everything else. Best wishes for your recovery. A healing haiku: Big love in few words for our dear Quit Train poet.

  8. Of course many of us remember you @beazel! I'm so sorry to hear you have had to go though this issue but as you noted, the whole issue would have been much worse if you were still relying on smoking to get you through tough situations! Now you can simply concentrate on reaching full recovery by working hard on physical therapy without worrying about when you have to have your next smoke! Best wishes for a timely & full recovery

  9. Sorry to hear this Beazel. Had not heard of this before. I hope the therapy and your recovery give you more comfort than what you have been experiencing. During the QSMB days, I lost my quit a couple months after you joined the group. Happy to be back but sorry to say losing my quit, and ignoring the known risk's has caused some serious health issues. We can only hope someone gain's that forever quit from some information they find here. I wish you the best. Stew.

  10. I'm sorry to read you've been so sick @beazel, but I'm glad you're now on the road to recovery. Thank you for sharing yet another perk of quitting smoking. I too experienced the same relief when I was hospitalized a few years ago. In Florida they gave my parents nicotine patches whenever they were hospitalized!
