For the past year and a half I have been slowly losing my Mother to lung cancer. I watched her take her o2 off and drag herself to the porch sit under the " No Smoking... Oxygen in use" sign while hacking up all sorts of things. I was taking a lot of heat from Mom, Wife, kids and siblings to quit my 2 can of Cope a day habit.
I had attempted to quit numerous times and had 2 6 month runs that ended with one wont hurt but learned not only can it hurt it can kill. I knew I did not have the strength to quit while Mom was dying but made a commitment to quit after she passed.
I lost the most amazing Mother on 12/30/08 and vowed to myself that after we had buried her on 1/3/09 I would pick my date as 1/5/09 to quit. I was goofing around searching for advice when I found the site! I am so glad I did. I can feel it inside already that this quit will be different. I will struggle at times but have an awesome support group that will help make me stay qiut!
