Thanks for the encouragement. All of you shared the heavy burden of getting through to me. I appreciate the input, example, and accountability each of you shared with me. I was going to update my intro a while back but decided to wait until my HOF speech to hash out everything that has been going on. Some days it has been just plain survival mode wading through the stress that life's unexpected curve balls can bring. Im already looking forward to roll call tomorrow.

Congrats brother. Who was that guy with the nic-gum in his pocket? He is long gone. You now stand strong in his place.
Great job on 100.

Day 29, and I got the call from my Dr's office saying that the lab results for the biopsied tissue is callouses/hyperkeratosis.  I'm thankful for that, no doubt!  I've been freaked out and battling some harsh anxiety over this.

I know I responded already in the Dec 13 group thread, but I wanted to also update my Intro thread.

I don't mean to sound ungrateful, and I want to enjoy this moment for sure, but I'm very angry with tobacco, tobacco companies, and myself for being such an idiot for 20+ years.  I will not put those radioactive carcinogenic cat turds in my face.  Not for any reason. 

I know others have gotten results that wasn't what they had hoped for, and my heart goes out to them and their families.

Your uncovering lie after lie j. It's one thing for me and others to tell you the truths but it's another to feel and see them first hand. Damn proud to be quit with you today.

Thanks. The results I got doesnt make me want to start back dipping. It makes me want to quit even more than I already did. I know I read threads where people went back to dipping after getting a good biopsy report and that can be a catalyst for caving, but it had the opposite effect on me.

Im thankful for my KTC brothers and sisters.

Right on Jay! So happy for you today. I didn't have to go as far as biopsy, but I know for me, now that I've made the decision to quit, getting a clean bill of health was for me too motivation to add to my quit. I thought about a crave for sure right about then, but no way. There's nothing like getting a clean bill of health!!

I was also glad to hear that. And when you sent me the pics of your mouth when I was having a crave, I stopped craving real fast. A good reminder of the risks we took and the bullets we dodged. Glad you are ok my man.

You have come a long way, brother.
You really have a strong and inspiring quit going.
Glad to be quit with you.

Glad it came back clear. Let that anger fuel your quit. Razd was one angry mofo for quite a while.
