I woke up August 25, 2010
and couldn't breathe. I had
been smoking a pack and a
half on and off for 40 years.
Almost 250,000 cigarettes.
My lungs had had it.
I promised myself that if I
could just regain my ability
to breathe, I'd never smoke
again. I threw tantrums, cried,
screamed, pounded on walls,
bargained with the Smoke
Demons...and began my final
smokefree journey that saved
my life. I have NOT smoked
55,000 cigarettes.
I have not had so much as
a puff since that day; and
am far healthier today than
I was twenty years ago...
I wrote Romancing The Smoke
to commiserate with others
going through the battle with
nicotine.
To all my friends whom I have
not yet met who are waging
this battle to quit smoking,
I say YOU can do this!
This means YOU, Facebook
Quit Smoking Community!
There's NOTHING romantic
about smoking; RTS will do
what it can to cheer you on.
Begone Smoke Demons-Forever!
