Seeing Red !!!!!!

I was just sitting here reading blogs to catch up when some IDIOT saw what site I was on. They noticed that I breath heavily due to the COPD. After asking about my difficulties and hearing my story, he had only one comment that he just had to make!!!!

Would you believe this JACKASS told me that since my lungs are obviously shot, that I should just smoke like hell and just enjoy the little time I have left????

If I had been close to my home (and tomahawk) this person would now be headed to his ancestors without his scalp!!!!!

I am not a violent person usually, but after everything that has happened over the last 14 months, I don't think I have to put up with someone practicing "quack medicine".

To say I am a little mad is like saying Noah went through a little sprinkle.

I AM MAJORLY PISSED RIGHT NOW !!!!!!!!

I am glad I was here so I could vent the anger instead of killing that IDIOT though. Thank you all for the help and support since I joined the family.

Great Spirit be with you all.

Larry

About the Author
I am a male that underwent coronary artery bypass X3 (triple) on 10/22/13 at the age of 55. I was living on about 20-30% of one coronary artery and my left heart output was only 20% to 25%. I spent a week in the hospital after surgery and went home. Then had to go back a day later for another week because I had pneumonia. Finally a few days because of a slight arythmia. All told it has been about 2 1/2 weeks. I am past the cravings by now and only have the urges to contend with. I really don't suggest that anyone quits smoking using this technique though. I'll have to carry the scars from that day for the rest of my life. The large one down the center of my chest, and the ones from several "silent" infarctions. I came that close to the next world. Never again will I subject my body to that (at one point in my life I was smoking 5 packs of cigarillos a day). I now have to say N.O.P.E. (Not One Puff Ever) every day of my life.
