About Me:
I have smoked since I was 14 years old. I had a stroke on December 5. I was smokefree for 9 days.Then I started again. My brother offered to quit chewing tobacco if I would quit smoking with him. We quit on December 26. I have 3 children and their dad who are encouraging me to make it this time and I am trying really hard. I am using the nicotine patches, but sometimes it is still very hard. I am now 55. My youngest son is 17 and I dont want to leave him without his mom as he still needs me and loves me very much. I thought it would help me if I joined this group to get extra encouragement and help me when I need it. Thank you

Marjorie - welcome to this site. You are doing a wonderful thing, like you need me to tell you that.

I have been smoke free now for 106 days. Without this site, I probably would not have been successful. I too smoke for over 40 years. I am so happy that I do not smoke! I am not saying that I don't want one, because I do. But, I will never again smoke another cigarette.

NOPE - Not One Puff Ever.

One is too many and 100 not enough. For too many years I was going to quit tomorrow, and tomorrow finally came. YEA!!!!

Good luck to you! It sounds like your positive attitude and actions are having a ripple effect. Nice going!

Hello Marjorie! Congradulations on your quit! You made one of the best decisions you'll ever make coming to this site! There is support, encouragement and information here that will help you stay quit and enjoy the limitless benefits of being a NON-SMOKER! Just joining probably took alot of courage, and we know where you're coming from. Stick around and let us help you. You are welcome to check out the group "Yes You Can." I can really relate with you about your son. My youngest son just turned 21 yesterday and he gave me alot of support when I quit.
