Hello All,
I've got to say, I've been following this forum from a far for a long, long time. Never really had the guts to sign up or get all the notifications etc etc. That all changed Sunday.
Just found out that I am going to be a father and the first thing I could think of was that f-ing crap that I've put in my mouth 3-6 times a day for the past six years. Grizz Wintergreen baby. In the car, in the shower, cutting the lawn, playing video games, on the way to work so my wife didn't know. On the way home from work. Hunting, fishing, drinking, cooking, whatever you guys get the point. It went with me everywhere and permeated every aspect of my life. I wondered if that would prevent me from seeing my son/daughter's graduations, weddings, etc.
It's a shame that at 26 years old and finding out I'm going to be a father was clouded by concern, guilt, and worst of all DREAD. Dreading quitting not even for the quit, but just the effort. Sheer laziness really.
This forum has been monumental in helping me take the first step from the gruesome pictures and real cancer stories to the regular old guys just like me posting roll everyday. It's a strange feeling knowing in your heart of hearts that every time i stare at that can of Grizz Wintergreen, it's going to kill me.
Today I've decided to fight back and take a stand. I ask for your help and support as I surely give you mine.
