Thank you for all the support. But, Please, please don't go there with the preachy lung cancer...can't breath...disgusting, pathetic life and way to die stuff with me...just doesn't work. I've known all that for years...and I kept on smoking.
Maybe I'm weird...but I can't do it that way. I already have a chronic illness and so anything connected with illness, etc. just doesn't help me.
I just have to go at this a different way...like how am I going to learn to dive at 40 if the DR. won't sign the medical release...or how I can't comfortably cruise around Hawaii with an Oxygen tank strapped to my butt.
Anyway, Called my Dr. today and made an appointment...I guess I'm really gonna do this right. She suggests to make no major changes, just keep the cutting back, etc. until she sees me. She wants to get me something to help "boost" the quitting and make it easier. The plan is to see her after school is out next week(I teach) and start the big Q after we get back from our big summer Vacation in early June. You know...as I do all this stuff..it does seem more real. I'm beginning to think I have a chance.
Thanks so much for the support...evidently writing things that are incredibly too long and painfully boring to read helps me get this all real in my head. Thanks for taking the time out to bother.
