Here we go again....

[wastepanel]

I've posted to roll call (can someone make sure I did it correctly?) with a pinch of smokey mountain wintergreen in. Not terrible stuff. I think it will do just fine. Thanks guys.

You will, and you only have a few more hours today.

Check back in after that and I'll let you know what the plan is tomorrow (hint: what did you do today?).

Anyways, Smokey Mountain is long cut like Skoal. Hooch and Baccoff are short cut. Our one administrator Chewie reviews the herbal snuffs HERE. I like SMS, but some of the Hooch's are pretty good as well.

Anyways man...day 1 is almost over. Drink tons of water (it gets the poisons out faster). Watch your caffeine. It may seem more potent here. If you're drinking water like crazy, you won't want it anyway. Sweating is a great way to break a crave.

It might suck here initially, but it does get better. You can do this.

"Jason, you have cancer." These are the words I heard from my Dr not even two weeks ago on July 11th. How can this happen to me? I'm only 28, I eat healthy, I work out, and in general good health. On the way home all I could think about is what could happen to me. My dad died at the age of 40 from cancer as well as several other members of my family.

After some blood tests and scans I found out I had stage 1 seminoma testicular cancer. My Dr assured me that I would be fine and that this is highly treatable. I couldn't help but to think if this was caused by my chewing habit. Apparently they don't know what causes this cancer but it doesn't have any link to chewing. I didn't know the extend of the cancer for 3 days. So I had plenty of time to stew over the possibilities of what all could happen.

I went in for surgery last Tuesday and the operation went well. The following blood work and scans show that I am currently cancer free. I will go back in 3 months for another scan to make sure.

Even though this doesn't have anything to do with chewing, it has a lot to do with it to me. Being told I had cancer changed my life. It's a feeling that you can not imagine until it happens to you. I've wanted to quit chewing for some time. I've always found a reason not to quit, and now I have the biggest motivating reason to quit. Why increase my odds to get a disease like cancer? I want to change to better myself and to not take things for granted. I may have lost a testicle to this cancer and it has forever changed me. I will not let it change me in a negative way. But I know if I lost something like say my lower jaw, that would change me and effect who I am as a husband and father.

My last chew was the day before my surgery, July 14th, 2014. I hope with the support of this site and my desire to change myself will help me reach that 100 day mark.

Welcome Jason. Glad to hear the operation went well. You are in the October 2014 group with me so head over there and post roll. Promise to quit with us and post roll every day and we can make it to 100 and far beyond 100.

Do you gents recommend one can of fake over another? My usual was cope wintergreen so I thought about giving smokey mountain a try. So I was hoping to find one that compared to the consistency and taste of cope. I'm aware that it won't be the same. Thanks.

Man that's some scary stuff my friend. Glad you found us and thanks for your story. You put another story in my collection of quit stories that remind me why I'm here. Quit with you today.

Jason, welcome to the club and congrats the quit.

Jason, Glad to hear that your operation went well and the cancer has been removed. I think you have made a wise choice to quit, your very life may depend on it. If cancer has taken family members from you, then your genes may have some pre-disposition to it and dipping sure as hell doesn't help you in that regard. My personal opinion is that most of the population has specific genetic markers that pre-dispose them to cancer and certain products we use or are exposed to can cause it to appear. I'm not just talking about tobacco either, but we know for sure the weed can trigger the mutation of those cells to cancer by the research. There are probably tons of things that can be a trigger but since we know tobacco is one, kind of stupid of us to use it. Well actually not kind of stupid, really f%^*ing stupid of us and everyone here at KTC is guilty of it. You will also get the side benefits of quitting, such as more time for your family, more money for family and not having to be a slave to that little round can, leading you around like a damn idiot. So welcome to the asylum and I believe Waste has placed a link in his above post with instructions on how to navigate the site.

Quit with you Today!

Not really. I'm still trying to figure that out.
