strength

Hiya all Newbie here from the UK.
I'm on day 98 and I can tell you it's been hard I quit the day after my Dads funeral I told him I would stop and I have kept my word bit as you can imagine it hasn't been easy but I did it through the hardest time in my life,my dad had copd heart disease bowel cancer etc and I watched him every day wither away to nothing it does out things into perspective,98 days later I'm still off them it's been hard but I keep myself busy,Health wise I feel so much better I too was on a copd spray for the last 9 months but since quitting I haven't used it once so it just shows,I'm so glad I decided to do it when I did as the time was right for me.Keep going all your stronger than you think and it's worth it xx

Welcome to the site, your story is an inspiration to many people you don't even know. Thanks.

So sorry for your loss Tan51. I am sure your Dad will rest easier knowing you are looking after yourself better now. Staying a non-smoker will bring greater health benefits again over time. Thanks for sharing and you stay strong!
