I Spoke Too Soon

Still blessed that our little kitty came home post vacation.  Still blessed to be a part of this wonderful family.  Still blessed to be quit despite some weird fevers that keep pestering me. 

Yep, I spoke too soon when I returned from our respite in Colorado.  My fevers had been a little better for two full weeks but this past weekend I spiked over 100 three times.  So, I'm off again for a totally new independent opinion again on October 17.

I am really down in the dumps about this because I thought I was on the mend.  I was so looking forward to feeling like "Stacie" again.  Then BAM!  There came the sweats and I put that thermometer in my mouth and I could not believe what I was seeing.

But, I passed by a smoker outside of a store front the other evening and smelled the smoke of a smoker.  My first thought wasn't "gee I'd like to have one."  NOPE!  My thought was "she's smoking because she HAS to."  And I was so glad and overjoyed that I have quit and have maintained my quit, regardless of everything else going on with me.  I remain steadfast and true to my quit because I know good darn well that the last thing my body would need right now is a sickorette!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  And I know I have a much better chance of getting well without those awful things!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Thank you family for helping me to quit and to stay quit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From the bottom of my heart, thank you to everyone in this magical family who keeps checking on me.  Sorry I am not as present as I wish I could be right now.

Love to all and wishes to all for a wonderful week,

Stac
