Congratulations on your 3 months, fabulous :)

Congratulation Rez :)

Great job Naynay, so pleased and proud for you xx

Thank you Doreen, will do he will smile at that. Doreen you might be able to help in a way? Was it you that mentioned your Tony had asbestos on his lung, or have I got Tony mixed up with someone else? I only ask as they found that on his lung, about six weeks ago ( he fell through his garage roof over 40/50 years ago) they did find it but said it was nothing to be concerned about at the moment. I only ask as Lee and I where just talking and said he wondered if any of this was due to that?

Sadly you're right. Hope you're ok xx

Thanks Petra The good news is Barb turned up today and he is sitting up talking, huge progress! He is having a camera down his lungs next week so they can see what's going on. So will be in at least another week which at least means he is in good hands. His heart is under constant monitoring too. Still no definite answer of why the white blood cells dropped to 2 though. Hopefully, this week, it will all come together to see what's going on. Del is like the cat with 9 lives, thank goodness. Been given the ok tomorrow to visit him.

They sure are!

Fine Hun, just shocked, but fine my lovely xx

Unfcuking believe able , words fail me they really do.

Congratulation Tracey, am so proud to know someone like you xx

Happy Birthday Rez, fingers crossed it's not shepherds pie for your birthday tea. However you celebrate it I hope you have a good one.

Yes, come and join the rest of us who like you smoked and now happily don't . We have been exactly where you are......

Chrys for some it does seem like the first 6 months are tough.I found it a real battle not to smoke in those months, I honestly did. Chrys I cried a lot and found it helped to vent, on the forum I was using. I also found those very strong 'urges' did just stop, like that, just stopped. I also found around the time they stopped, December, was when the night sweats stopped and my periods came back after not having any for 5 months. I don't know if any of that is going on your end? Bear in mind I had bloods done, months after, and no sign of being pre menapousal showed up in the results. Something goes on inside for some of us Chrys and I think you made the right move protecting your quit, and visiting your doctor. I don't have the answer, who does? But let's hope one day the spend money on research to see what is going on, so it can help others not relapse.

Education yes, I remember this- yuck!

I only waited due to fear, fear of past attempts being so extremely unpleasant. Head down and crack on, if in he'll keep walking I say- you will reach the other side. If past attempts have not been extremely unpleasant and no more than a little crave here and there then what the hell are you waiting for? Christmas? Head down and crack on.

Ouch! Lived to tell the tale, at least. As I say ouch.

Petra is sooooo right! Best thing I ever did, ever!

Congratulations on 10 fabulous months :)

Congratulations :)

Goodness me, what a scare. Thank goodness you're ok and wise move...smell the burgers just don't eat them. Look after your health, so precious.

Oh no, that's just terrible and so very sad. So very sorry to hear this.

Loved your photos Sue, making fabulous memories for your fabulous children, wonderful.

Oh no, that's terrible. Goodness me I hope it turns out to be nothing more than him choosing to go off the radar for a while.

I mean really? I don't often use the f word in my life but f word times a million, and them some. And deep breaths, that's better- time for a brew.

If the time came and you couldn't face it- been there done that as many others have, I'm sure. If it's that then post and say who are we to judge, we can at least get you talking it through. If it's not that and you have just not fancied coming on after your final cig then ignore the above and well done, not let's help you to maintain this quit. Either way post if you get a minute to spare.
