Honey we are here for you. We discussed many things about your health but it's still a type of shock to hear it officially from your Dr's and the possibilities of what May be ahead for you. Rome wasn't built in a day and we need to take it 1 step and 1 day at a time. Know that we are here to support you with love, understanding, support and prayers every step along the way. That is what we do best and in the most difficult of times. Love Ya and a BIG HUG. Deb

I am so sorry to hear this news.I have another friend that is developing this problem because of extreme asthma.She had to quit smoking just before me.Have you quit smoking or do you even smoke,cause that is the first thing you will have to do is quit if you do smoke.That is one of the reasons I had to quit cause they thought I had the same problem at one point.Please dear lady do what the doctor tells you,cause this is nothing to fool around with.Please let us know what happens.Your in my prayers,until you are better.

Deb, BIG HUG back at ya. I am OK with all of this. Yes it is a shock, But I have wondered when they would dx the congestive heart failure. I spoke to my mom about it over a year ago. To be honest It is just another stone in the walkway along this path we call life. I have major heart issues coming at me from both sides of my family. I have never questioned God in WHY ME. I just keep going with life and deal with what comes my way as it hits. I used to stress over every little issue, but now life goes on stress or not. Why waist my time and energy over issues I have no control over. Yes I still stress, BUT for the most part its not more then a few minutes. TOO MUCH IN LIFE IS GOOD TO WORRY OVER A BUMP IN THE ROAD. This is not just a brave front for you all. I'm ok. When more sinks in, I may be here in ya inbox sayin what the he**.... but at this point I'm ok. love you and thank you d

Girl I could not quit until I tried Zyban.I got a six. wk supply,decided when my quit date was and thank god made it this time cause I was worried about dying and they were afraid of me having the same thing as you have.You are not ready to quit emotionally,but your body is saying you better quit or dy sooner.Sorry for being so blunt hon,but I already have a dear friend that is under so much stress with her home life and had to quit if she wants to live.Even with quitting she still has to fight for air.Your in my prayers,but you have to be willing too help yourself first girl and those cigarettes at this stage are going to kill you.Take care hon.Sorry but I had to be up front.You have fought so hard to live,giving up cigs is the easy part compared to what you have already gone through.

Good morning, Gail. I smoked three packs a day when I was drinking and partying, which was for a long time.

Have friends order wine and I can actually smell wine

if I'm in a average size room. With the smoking I have been In your shoes,. I understand , but used to not be able to control my stress be cause my job was so demanding. Ship Supplies.

Please take this with the love and want for yours, and all of us, well being....You are an addict!! As am I. Hands down. Your answer was perfect.

Sorry, I rambled.

Please take this with the love and want for yours, and all of us, well being....You are an addict!! As am I. Hands down.

Your answer was perfect. (if the doc tells me I need to stop I will) That is the type of thing an addict will say.

Why do people still smoke them? I think you already know the situation and how they (cigs) KILL PEOPLE! Re read the message on the box for a reminder. I think basically the message is Use of this product will kill you.

I'm addicted to snacks now. I've put on 60 lbs in the last six months... I wake up in the middle of the night, and say,"OH Yeah..I have fig newtons downstairs.

I'm 5' 9" tall, and now weigh almost three hundred LBS. I know it's wrong...WAAAYY wrong for me to not eat healthy,especially with a TP maybe in my future.

We can't rely om our docs to state the obvious. Of course its unhealthy for me to be so heavy..and for you to smoke, and we both already.

y know it. Only WE can treat our addictions..We can get guidance, but one must be motivated in ones own spirit, heart, and soul, to win over addiction.

I am not going to call my Surgical Team and ask if it's OK if I'm 110lbs overweight...I KNOW the answer.

LOVE AND HUGS,

Del

Gail,

Thank you so much. I watched one of my patients die with both of these issues 6 years ago. I also have horrible asthma and allergies that tend to irratate my asthma. Yes I smoke. Right now a pack of cigs last me 3 days. And thats with me stressed. I am just not able to quit yet, but I am trying to cut them out more and more. I have been on welbutrin since 2001. It helps alot. But not ready to quit. If my dr says quit I will. I thank you and the others for all the prayers.

Yup I'm an addict. I know this. And with the addictions I have walked away from, walked away from cold turkey, I am keeping my smokes. The DR I seen a few months ago told me that trying to quit now would cause more damage to my system than the few smokes I have a day now. He agrees I need to stop, But not cold turkey.. Now my cigs stay. lol love d Join me for a cig Patty?Pat McBride <pmcbride1@...> wrote: Addictions R us..yes, your right Del..it will take alot of will power to stop smokin..the drinkin was a breeze compared to the smokin habit, many of us here smoke and its the last thing we will stop..Me for one ..I have copd..and Id rather have a smoke than a

RE: dr n danne

I may have quit smoking but I still have the cravings.Yes it is hard,but like the doctor said it will kill me.I like to be in control of my life,not some substance especially tabacco.But I will tell you,I think tabacco has to be the worst addiction.

Good morning, Gail.

I smoked three packs a day when I was drinking and partying, which was for a long time.

This may have a "holier than thou" theme laced into it, but nothing could be farther from the the truth.

I say this because I was/am and addict. I'm really finding out about addictions and what they are.

I have 'hung out' with my drinking buddies since I quit three years ago, and I'm fine with it!!

Have friends order wine and I can actually smell wine if I'm in a average size room.

With the smoking I have been In your shoes,. I understand , but used to not be able to control my stress be cause my job was so demanding. Ship Supplies. It is a NOW business, in 8 hrs the ship will sail and there isn't anything you can do about it.

Sorry, I rambled.

Please take this with the love and want for yours, and all of us, well being....You are an addict!! As am I. Hands down.
