I just realized that today is my uncle’s birthday. Today would have been his 78th birthday. He died April 5, 2006. He had a heart attack. In the hospital, he began having seizures. After a few days, he was declared brain dead. He was both a drinker and a smoker. I am adding him to the list of why I quit smoking. I am keeping my quit in remembrance of him. I am sure he is in heaven smiling down on me and proud of me for my progression.

I'm sorry for your loss @Charmaine H, I too am sure he's smiling down on you and is proud of your strength and dedication to your quit. You're giving him the best heavenly birthday gift he could want, for you to be free of smoking and doing well.  🥰  Stay strong, you're doing him (and everyone else) so proud. 💗

I too am sorry for your loss 

Cigarettes have took so many good folks too soon , I’m sure your Uncle is 

spurring you along on your journey 🐸

In that you are dedicating a part of your quit to your Uncle would make him proud I'm sure! I bet he's smiling down on you, filled with pride in your accomplishment right now.

Over three years quit now.  Awesome!  I remember your struggles from QuitNet/NOPE365.   I'm so happy to see you still smoke free and adding to the reasons for your Stay Quit.  Keep it up!
