Non-Smoking Anniversary
I gave up smoking seventeen years ago
There's no doubt in my mind, especially given the cardiac history of my family, that had I not given up smoking I'd be dead by now.

So: can I get a little applause here, please?

More than applause, Sleuth! I lost my dear father to lung cancer 12 years ago. It's nice to know that you were already smoke free for five years at that time.

Big time way to go!

You know my opinion of smoking with what happened to Bill 10/25. He's through the radiation and everything is looking good. But something like this sure does make one think about life and how to life it.


Everyone please stop smoking

That's wonderful! Quitnet really helped me at the 3 month mark when I wanted to start smoking again. You might want to check it out.

Quitters DO win!
