OMG just googled also.  Did not know this.  Good thing to know in case it popped up in my crosswords!

Keeping an eye on the sky.  Wouldn't be March in Tennessee without at least one day of flash flooding and tornado watches.

 

No worries.  I know how to handle bad weather...

Feeling so relieved my sister had her long awaited operation for an aortic aneurysm . Due to covid she has had to wait almost a year for it, and i have been so stressed it would  rupture and I may lose her. She had an 8 hour operation last Tuesday and has just come out of ICU and on to a general ward. She is in a lot of pain, I spoke to her yesterday for a few minutes. Hopefully she will go home in a couple of days. I pray now she will quit smoking. Yes she was still smoking with the aneurysm, madness!!!

The power of this addiction is appalling!

Life is better without cigarettes, and I have proved great stress can be handled without smoking.

Thank god I am free of this horrible addiction.

Thank you Jillar. It’s been terrifying, her aneurysm was big, should have been operated on months ago, and I know she was terrified of it rupturing, so smoked to “ease” her stress. I read it’s one of the worst things to do with an aneurysm as it affects your arteries. I tried to get her to stop, but I guess we all stop when we are ready and not when others are worried about us. While she’s been. In hospital obviously she can’t smoke, so that/has given her a good start. I just hope she carries it on. Hopeing she will be greatful for a fresh start and quit and keep healthy.

Glad your sis is past her surgery and on the mend. This Covid thing is screwing up a lot of other stuff, that's for sure. Hopefully your sister sees her 'smoke free' hospital stay as a good head start on quitting as well but what you said before is true. People are ready when they're ready themselves. We can only gently encourage them I suppose.

Thank you Reci, yes  fingers crossed she realises what a great chance she has been given , she is very lucky and she knows it. Monday night the night before the op she kept sending me messages telling me she loved me, I think she was worried she might not make it ...  

now is the time to make a new life and move on from smoking.

covid has definately caused a lot of problems for many people and some won’t make it , as get treatment too late or not at all!

It's not what I'm doing but more of what I did.......... We had free shred weekends all month of March at a local bank celebrating their 20th anniversary and I managed to get rid of SEVEN 13gallon bags of paperwork! Now I have plenty of room in the boxes for the next seven years! :)

Glad your sister was able to get the medical attention she needed.

 

You have set a great example for her by quitting smoking.  Hopefully, she will follow your lead.

Crying and can't believe that I am craving a cigarette.  My dad just passed away.  I can't tell you how dysfunctional my family is and how difficult it has been over the last five days.  I did get the chance to tell my dad I loved him and he finally told me that he loved me.  I know that should be enough but I can't seem to get rid of all the hurts.  I am hoping now, that the healing will begin.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
