I quite because like everyone else I knew it was slowly killing me. After two months, and really recognizing how winded I'd be after shot spurts of energy I just figured it will go away the longer I stay nicotine free. I went for a chest x-ray last week and today found out that I have COPD. I wasn't shocked to hear this. Upset, yes with myself, but I will do the do, and live as healthy and as happy as can be now that I'm not a prisoner to the poison nicotine. This is not a death sentence hearing that I have COPD, just the opposite, I will now live my life with freedom and peace of mind. hang in there everyone. J.F.T
