Good Evening, just wanted to say my days will not be as busy now.  My brother is better and was released from hospital today and is in a rehab center to get some strength back. I was at the hospital getting him released and his wife was at rehab getting paper work filled out. Hospital didn't know how long it would take to get transport for him so I put him in my car and took him myself. I was almost as tired of being at hospital as he was.  I am so glad he is doing better and I thank you all for your prayers and love you very much.  I should be here more for the next couple of days then I am going to visit another friend and I willnot have pc service.

Love and hugs to all, Betty

Gone but Not Forgotten. RIP - they leave a legacy of their quit journeys behind as road maps for future members, to prevent the pitfalls, provide the tools and show the hope and possibilities for success at overcoming this addiction at any age at any stage. Mother, grandmother and great grandmother My name is Betty and I was born and raised in Kentucky where tobacco was a way of life. I started smoking full time by age 14. The first time I can remember smoking I was 9. I have been on the road to quitting for several years. I quit once for 6 weeks and then thought I would smoke just one. It only took a few weeks till I was smoking full time again. That is why remembering NOT ONE PUFF EVER is so important. It will never be just one puff or just one cigarette. Nicotine addiction doesn't work like that, it is an addiction, feed it and you become addicted. Here are a couple of links to reading materials that I recommend to ALL who would like to quit smoking: What to Expect in the First Four Months (by Jonescarp aka Dale): http://community.becomeanex.org/pg/blog/read/3713880/what-to-expect-in-the-first-four-months The "Easy Way to Stop Smoking" by Allen Carr.
