1 out of 3 smokes....my middle child....but he has overcome some serious obstacles in his life and for the longest time....smoking was the least of his issues. I hope he tackles the nicotine addiction next. He "liked" the Quit Train Facebook page so, it's always possible. :)

Have a Wonderful, Happy Birthday Chip!

How did I miss this little nugget? Nice post Ava....it's all about the fear..every single excuse we ever had for smoking was fear based. Funny though...the only courage you really need to have is the first step. Putting down that final cigarette and make the commitment to never take another puff. No Matter What. Minute by minute....you simply don't smoke. You don't smoke for the next hour. you don't smoke for 2 hours....then a few hours goes by...you've done it. Time for bed now..you are a bit tired and even lightheaded (from that sudden burst of oxygen your blood has now received since you smoked your final cigarette) but you made it.....on to day 2........Nothing to fear...you got through day 1.....you can get through any day.
