Follow up today with the plastic surgeon went well.
He said it looks like everything is healing nicely.
About the only good news going on around here...

She will have to have weekly follow-ups with him until the reconstruction process is finished, likely another 4 months if no chemo or radiation, considerably longer if either of those are called for by the oncologist she will not see for another 10 days or so.

Today is 365 days since we lost her son Nolan.
That's really the only thing on her mind and nothing can change or fix that.
Going to have some of his friends over tonight and release a couple Chinese lanterns in his honor

Hate to bring everyone down if you are reading this, just really nobody around home to talk to about all this, so just trying to clear my head.
Thanx for all the support for the last 620 days but especially the last 365.

Follow up this morning with the surgeon: she is now filling out discharge paperwork and we plan on leaving after a quick follow-up with the plastic surgeon.

Back home now, as of 3:30, Anne is worn out from the last 48 hours

600/111 ABQTPFC

500-600 seemed to crawl by compared to any of the previous floors beyond HOF, not sure why?
Probably because I was also quitting coffee and soda during everyone of those 100 days.
Don't think I could have done the coffee/soda thing first or at the same time as nicotine, at least not in the beginning.

On another note,
Today a brother lost his mother, that is more important than anything I have to say or actually do in here today,
So get over to January 2018 and offer your deepest sympathies and support to the Texas Chief, he is in need today!

So yesterday was 100 days free of caffeine, or at least coffee and soda. I feel great without it in my life, but the first week was easily as bad if not worse than quitting nicotine. Really just popping in to mark that occasion, even if a day late
You're a brave man!  good on you for making positive changes to your life.  Totally amazed at how well ODAAT works.  It really does move mountains!
Thanx brother, how you doing?
M'aiight!  Split two cords of wood yesterday.  Would have been a full can job a scant 440 days ago.  Nary a grain, even in spite of the fire ants finding my satchel!

Well that thread merge turned into a Trainwreck. Not Batdad's fault, just the way the software sorted the posts. If you've spent any time reading my intro, I'm sure you can find your way through this. If you haven't, the end is just as good of a place to start. Stay strong, stay quit. WUPPEDD ODAATEDD.
Can you make a promise to not use nicotine for 24 hours?
Can you keep your word?
Then you can be quit.
Jump on in and make your promise.

[spoiler=signature stuff]Leonidas nickname is Dyson because he he sucks like a cracked out meth whore - Candoit

Could I quit without KTC? Probably. Let's say it's 99.9% yes, I could quit without KTC. That 0.1% risk of failure isn't worth it to me. That 0.1% is enough to keep me here, long into the future, just to be sure.-srains918

Not sure who Batdad is, but he keeps coming up as an asshole =P so he can be an asshole if it helps others quit lmao. BTW who is batdad? I'm newer so it might be something I am missing. -evillen

With all the craziness swirling around us, it's nice to have certain constants that we can always count on, like Batdad is an asshole. -Rewire
