This is one horrible killer addiction ...so many have died well before thier time ... Family, friends .... I thought I too would just be a number and die too....until I found you guys .... I am so thankful and remind myself every day ....I found the strength to be free... Every smoker can feel this ...if only they would believe it's possible .... Myself and Jillar ...love to see a Newbie come here , desperate to Quit ....and achieve their goal... I'm proud of everyone who is here and has been here ,who found their Freedom ..

Aww...Blimey ...ok...that said .... Lets get this done ....When I was early in my quit ...I was told .... Take Smoking Off The Table No Matter What ....my junkie mind got this ...whatever was happening around me ..smoking was not a option ...make that decision....and stick to it ... We all know you can do it !!!!

Hi Judi ...I too am sorry your having to deal with this ...Quitting smoking is the best thing you can do for yourself to help with your recovery ....I too was a 60 yrs plus smoker ..it is doable .... You asked about going on the patches after your surgery .... While your in hospital your body will be cleansing itself of nicotine ...it takes 3 days ...so already you will have a good start . There is no reason for you to go on a patch and put more nicotine in your body ..just to rid of it a little later ... My advice .... Make a positive desision never to take nicotine of any form back into your system.... If you go to our Main Discussion Smoking Board ...you will find tons of useful info....also videos..that will talk you through most of your fears ... Dont look at it as a negative thing your doing ....it's all positive .....your getting rid of something that is destroying your well being .... Stay close to us....we will help you through it ....read old posts here ...get as much information as you can .. It will help you ...
