I spoke with Nancy this morning and she said she is going to be required to have surgery becase if these kind of blockages don't clear up on their own in 2 days, they probably aren't going to.

She will be trying to get relocated to a larger up to date hospital prior to the surgery.

She thanks you for the prayers. Please keep them coming.

UPDATED: SEE BELOW

UPDATE

Nancy has tried to get into the larger hospital but they are overwhelmed right now and would probably want to redo all the tests she's already had where she is so rather than risk the delay, she has approved having the surgery where she is and will let me know what the surgery schedule is at any time.

Hello, My name is Dale. I was quit 18 months before joining this site and had participated on another site during that time. I learned a lot there and brought it with me. I joined this site the first week of August 2008. I didn't pressure myself to quit. HOW I QUIT I didn't count, I didn't deny myself to get started. When I considered quitting (at a friends request to influence his brother to quit), I simply told myself to wait a little longer. No denial, nothing painful. After 4 weeks I was down to 5 cigarettes from a pack a day. The strength came from proving to myself, I didn't need to smoke because I normally would have smoked. Simple yes? I bought the patch. I forgot to put one on on the 4th day. I needed it the next day but the following week I forgot two days in a row I put one in my wallet with a promise to myself that I would slap it on and wait an hour rather than smoke. It rode in my wallet my first year.There's nothing keeping any of you from doing this. It doesn't cost a dime. This is about unlearning something you've done for a long time. The nicotine isn't the hard part. Disconnecting from the psychological pull, the memories and connected emotions is. :-) Time is the healer.
