Description

I am a mother, teacher, artist, dog lover, and ashamed that I am a smoker.  I am a smart person and should have known better before I started.  I was 18 and naive.  In college in the seventies, everyone smoked and it was part of the culture.  Over the years I discovered that I am a highly addicted personality.  I have quit many times, sometimes for more than a year, but haven't been succesful.  I was diagnosed with MS twently years ago (no major disabilities), had a heart attack four years ago, and was diagnosed with stage one lung cancer in January.  Of course I quit immediately, the very small tumor was removed, did not need chemo or radiation, and one month ago I smoked a cigarette.  The next day I smoked three, the next 10, and you know the rest of the story.  It is IMPERATIVE that I quit for good.  I probably won't be so lucky the next time.................
