[QUOTE="in a daze, post: 614646, member: 15832"] I remember. It's really hard, isn't it? It took me two attempts to quit. The second attempt was during a bout of a stomach virus which finally worked. I should mention I decided to quit the first time when I started working in a chronic ventilator ward. The patients had tracheostomies and were hooked to the machines. They were just waiting to be transferred to a state hospital as they had failed multiple weaning attempts. I would get a co worker to watch my patients so I could go outside and have a cigarette. And of course the irony of it was that I was poisoning myself with the same thing that had ultimately gotten my patients in their present state of affairs. Yet that was not enough, until I got that viral thing. That was over 30 years ago... Helps if the boyfriend (now my husband) doesn't smoke! [/QUOTE]
